Upgrading Access Manager and the repository using the GUI installation

This topic describes how to use the GUI installation to upgrade Access Manager and the repository. You can use the procedure described in this topic if you are upgrading from version 7.6.02.06 and you installed these components in the same directory, different directories, or on different computers. 

After you upgrade Access Manager, you must install the repository, as described in Installing the repository separate from Access Manager.

Before you begin

• You must have downloaded the installation files from the BMC Electronic Product Distribution (EPD) website.
• You must ensure that the target computer meets the minimum system requirements for your environment.
• You must ensure that the port 12333 is available on the computer for running the BMC installer.  
• You must have reviewed and, if necessary, modified the upgrade worksheets for Access Manager and the repository.
• You must be logged on as an administrator and have administrator rights on the computer where you will upgrade Access Manager and the repository.
• If you are upgrading on a Windows computer, ensure that DEP is configured to recognize the installation program executable.
• You must have exited all other programs.
