Upgrading the Active Directory Adapter
You can update the Active Directory Adapter.
About this task
For adapter versions 6.x and later, use the adapter update option if you want to keep the adapter configuration (registry keys and certificates) unchanged.
If the update installation option is selected, the path
of the existing installed adapter is required. The
installer replaces the binary files and the DLLs of the adapter and
the ADK. The installer does not prompt for any configuration information
during an update installation.
Note: Adapter-related
registry keys are not modified. The update installation does not create
an additional service for the adapter.
When you update to a higher version of the adapter, first install the new version of the adapter before you uninstall the old version. Installing the update in this sequence maintains all of your current configuration settings, the certificate, and private key. When you install the adapter, specify the same installation directory where the previous adapter was installed. For more information about installing the adapter, see Installing.
