Upgrading the First KeyControl Node Using the webGUI

Before You Begin 

Make sure you have removed any additional KeyControl nodes from the cluster before you upgrade the node as described in Removing KeyControl Nodes from a Cluster. You cannot upload the ISO file if there are other nodes in the cluster.

Procedure 

  1. Log into the KeyControl webGUI on any node in the cluster using an account with Domain and Security Admin privileges.

  2. In the top menu bar, click Settings.
  3. In the System Settings section, click Upgrade.

  4. Click Browse and navigate to the HyTrust ISO installation file and click Open.

  5. Click Upload File.

    If the Upload File button is not active, make sure that you have selected an ISO file and that you have removed all of the other nodes from the cluster. You cannot upload the ISO file if there are multiple nodes in the cluster.

  6. When the upgrade finishes, the KeyControl webGUI displays the Upgrade Success dialog box showing the status of the upgrade. Click Close to continue with the process.
  7. Click Reboot to finish upgrading the First Node.

  8. Click Proceed at the prompt.

    KeyControl reboots the node and returns you to the KeyControl webGUI Login page.

  9. If desired, log into the First Node to view the progress of the reboot. When the process is complete, KeyControl displays the HyTrust SecureOS upgrade was successful screen. Press Enter to acknowledge this message and return to the login prompt on the KeyControl server.

  10. To verify the upgrade, log back into the KeyControl webGUI and return to Settings > Upgrade.

    Tip: If your browser does not display the KeyControl webGUI login page correctly, clear your browser cache and navigate to the page again.
  11. Verify the settings for Current Version and Previous Version.

What to Do Next 

After you upgrade the First Node, you do not need to upgrade the other nodes in the cluster. Instead, install the KeyControl software on the other nodes as if you were doing a fresh install and re-join those nodes with the node you just upgraded. For more information, see:
