Citrix Access Gateway 4.5 – 4.6 migration
August 18, 2010
I am always fairly careful when upgrading products, as I am sure people are aware the CAG 4.5 software has no upgrade option for the v4.6 version.
So the only way to get certs (without the IIS original!) is to backup and restore the configuration using the CAG itself. for reference the following config is saved and restored during this process.
- IP information
- Admin Password
- Name Service Providers
- SSL Certificates
- Date Settings (but sometimes time zone does not come out again correct?)
I have successfully used this method but have always installed the CAG software first onto a laptop to confirm config restores properly!
It does not add the advanced access control server details back in so you have to add that again manually, then restart the gateway again.
I have noticed it takes about 15 minutes for the advanced access control sites to be displayed but if you deploy a new logon point it seems to speed things along!
