need to upgrade HIDS v2.2 - where is v3.1 download?

[Martin Geil]

I have HIDS 2.2 running, and want to upgrade to v4.0. According to the release notes, I need to go to v3.1 first to retain my customized schedule, but I cannot find the v3.1 download online. Where is it?

Hi Martin,

I Dont think you will be able to download v3.1 since it nowhere available in software.hp.com. I think, you can backup any configuration files and "swremove old product" and swinstall the newer version.

Shalom,

If you have a software contract, open a call and HP can grant you access to an ftp site that has older versions of products.

HIDS v 3.1 may be on one of your application cd's, I'm not sure about that. Be a little pushy and you'll get 3.1

This product supports upgrades in place, so swremove is not needed.

Hi Martin -

To preserve your schedules, you must first migrate using v3.1. HIDS v3.1 is on the May05, Sep05, and Dec05 application release CDs. There was a fix to the v3.0 migration tools, so we do recommend using v3.1 intead of v3.0 for the migration from v2.2 before migrating to v4.0.

Let me know if you still need help getting v3.1.

Thanks for everyone's replies. Pierre, I only seem to have the 2004 Application CDs on-hand, and it seems to take weeks to get new ones. Can you provide an FTP location for HIDS v3.1? Even better, make a link to it from the main HIDS software download page so that others who are upgrading from v2.x don't have to search the forums. Thanks!

Hi Martin -

Thanks for the suggestion. Let me see what I can do on this end....
