Chapter 12. Updating and downgrading IdM
12.1. Updating IdM packages Copiar enlaceEnlace copiado en el portapapeles!
You can use the dnf
utility to update the Identity Management (IdM) packages on the system.
Prerequisites
- Ensure you have applied all previously released errata relevant to the RHEL system. For more information, see the How do I apply package updates to my RHEL system? KCS article.
Procedure
Select one of the following options:
To update all IdM packages that are relevant for your profile and that have updates available:
dnf upgrade ipa-*
# dnf upgrade ipa-*
Copy to Clipboard Copied! Toggle word wrap Toggle overflow To install or update packages to match the latest version available for your profile from any enabled repository:
dnf distro-sync ipa-*
# dnf distro-sync ipa-*
Copy to Clipboard Copied! Toggle word wrap Toggle overflow
After you update the IdM packages on at least one server, all other servers in the topology receive the updated schema, even if you do not update their packages. This ensures that any new entries which use the new schema can be replicated among the other servers.
When updating multiple IdM servers, wait at least 10 minutes after updating one server before updating another server. However, the actual time required for a server’s successful update depends on the topology deployed, the latency of the connections, and the number of changes generated by the update.
When two or more servers are updated simultaneously or with only short intervals between the upgrades, there is not enough time to replicate the post-upgrade data changes throughout the topology, which can result in conflicting replication events.
You can only upgrade to the next minor version. For example, to upgrade IdM on RHEL 9.4, you must be upgrading from an IdM on RHEL 9.3. Upgrading by skipping minor versions can cause problems. Alternatively, if you are using a RHEL Extended Update Support (EUS) subscription, you can only upgrade to the next EUS release. For example, if you are running IdM on RHEL 9.4 EUS, the next supported version for an upgrade is RHEL 9.6 EUS. To find the next supported version, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle page.

Red Hat does not support downgrading Identity Management.
