KB-2480: lslpp Reports 2 Versions of DirectAudit Co-existing After Upgrade.

Product:

Centrify DirectAudit ,

Rating:

Applies to: Centrify DirectAudit version 2.0.2 on all AIX platforms

Problem:

After upgrading DirectAudit, the output of:

lslpp -l CentrifyDA.core

..shows both the current version and previous version co-existing together. Is there any reason for this?

Cause:

Upgrading without disabling DirectAudit auditing leaves the DirectAudit package in a broken state. The next attempt to upgrade DirectAudit may then cause confusion because there is no fully installed DirectAudit; so it does a "fresh install" instead of an upgrade. This causes lslpp to report 2 versions co-existing together.

Workaround:

Uninstall DirectAudit first and then reinstall it.

Resolution:

This is fixed in Centrify DirectAudit version 2.1.0 and above.
