Upgrading Lync Connector

The changes in recent releases of Lync Connector are described elsewhere.

See Changes in Lync Connector version 1.2.2.

The upgrade procedure for Lync Connector requires you to remove the existing installation and then to install the new version. The Lync Connector configuration files are retained, so that the new version keeps your existing configuration settings.

The procedure includes an extra step if you currently have a Symantec-branded version of Lync Connector.

To upgrade Lync Connector

  1. Check whether Lync Connector's requirements have changed, and update your environment if required.

    See About the requirements for Lync Connector.

  2. Log on to the computer with an account that has local administrator privileges.
  3. Open the Windows Services MMC snap-in, and stop the Lync Connector service.
    • If your current version of Lync Connector is Veritas-branded, the service is named:

      Veritas Enterprise Vault.cloud Lync Connector

    • If your current version of Lync Connector is Symantec-branded, the service is named:

      Symantec Enterprise Vault.cloud Lync Connector

  4. In Windows Control Panel, uninstall Enterprise Vault.cloud Lync Connector.
  5. If your current version of Lync Connector is Symantec-branded, perform the following actions. Otherwise, go straight to step 6
    • Locate the Symantec Lync Connector configuration folder:

      %ProgramData%\Symantec\EV.Cloud\Lync connector\configuration

      where %ProgramData% is the value of the ProgramData environment variable, typically C:\ProgramData.

    • Make a backup copy of the configuration folder. Place the copy in another location for safe keeping.

    • Create a new configuration folder for Veritas, with the following path:

      %ProgramData%\Veritas\EV.Cloud\Lync connector\configuration

      where %ProgramData% is the value of the ProgramData environment variable, typically C:\ProgramData.

    • Copy the contents of the Symantec configuration folder into the Veritas configuration folder.

  6. Download the latest Veritas Lync Connector installation package from the following location on the Veritas support site:

    http://www.veritas.com/docs/100015413

  7. Extract the contents from the compressed installation folder.

    Note:

    We have no warranty on this product and the use is governed by the EULA located in the Enterprise_Vault.cloud_Lync_Connector_1.x.x.x_64-Bit folder.

  8. Double-click the setup.exe file.
  9. When the Lync Connector installation begins, follow the Lync Connector setup wizard.
  10. At the end of the installation the Enterprise Vault.cloud Lync Connector Service Configuration screen appears. Re-enter the credentials of the Lync Connector service account.

    See Lync Connector Service Configuration.

  11. If Lync Connector indicates that the configuration is incomplete, rerun the configuration wizard to configure any new configuration requirements. Otherwise you do not need to rerun the configuration wizard.
