Instructions to Apply the Service Pack

Note:
  • If you are trying to apply more than one service pack at a time, you need to restart the Firewall Analyzer Server after applying each service pack and check whether your data is intact in the web client. If you don't have any issues, follow the above steps for applying the other service pack. If you find any issues, do not continue applying the other service pack and contact Firewall Analyzer Support.
  • If Firewall Analyzer has been installed as a root user in a Linux machine, continue with the below procedure logged in as a root user itself.
  • Pre-requisite for context based Cisco Firewalls (Virtual Firewall): The Cisco Firewall IP address should be DNS resolvable from the Firewall Analyzer.

Prerequisite to apply the service pack (for both Windows and Linux)

  1. Shut down Firewall Analyzer server. (If Firewall Analyzer is running as a service, stop the service also)
  2. Please wait for a few moments till the server/service terminates completely
  3. Take a backup of the existing Firewall Analyzer database
    1. PostgreSQL - For Firewall Analyzer version 7.5 (Build 7500) onwards Create a ZIP file of the contents of <Firewall Analyzer Home>/pgsql/data directory and save it as pgsql_backup.zip in the <Firewall Analyzer Home> directory

      • Find the current location of the data file and log file for the database firewall by using the following commands:
      • use firewall go sp_helpfile go
      • Detach the database by using the following commands:
      • use master go sp_detach_db 'firewall' go
      • Backup the data file and log file from the current location (<MSSQL Home>\data\firewall.mdf and <MSSQL Home>\data\firewall_log.LDF) to the new location (<New location>\firewall.mdf and <New Location>\firewall_log.LDF).
      • Re-attach the database and point to the old location by using the following commands:
      • use master go sp_attach_db 'firewall' , '<MSSQL Home>\data\firewall.mdf' , '<MSSQL Home>\data\firewall_log.LDF' go
    3. MySQL - For Firewall Analyzer version 7.4 (Build 7400) or earlier
