Applies to Kaspersky Security Center 9

Download a Kaspersky Security Center 9 installation package from the Kaspersky Lab website – version 9.2.69.
Create a backup copy of your Administration server version 8.0 using the utility klbackup.exe or an Administration Server Data backup task.

To be able to restore Administration Server Data, you should save a Server certificate copy.
Run Kaspersky Security Center 9 installer on the computer with installed Administration server and upgrade its version.

Important note! Kaspersky Security Center 9 does not support the MS SQL 2000 (MSDE 2000).
Create a Network Agent version 9.2.69 installation group task for client computers (or a task for specific computers). Run this task on schedule or manually. The Network Agent version will be upgraded on client computers once the task completes.

If the Administration group contains more then 100 computers the most powerfull computer with the Network Agent installed will automatically become the Update Agent.
Run Kaspersky Security Center 9 installer on all other administrator workstations (computers with installed Console without a Server) to upgrade the Administration Console version.

Open a Console, connect to the Server and make sure that policies and tasks have updated correctly.

If a Server has failed to install, reinstall Administration Server and restore from an Administration Server data backup copy.
When you start an Administration console for the first time, run a Policies and Tasks Conversion Wizard (right click on "Administration Server" node and select "All tasks" -> "Policies and Tasks Conversion Wizard"). This uses the existing policies and tasks for Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 MP4 for Windows Workstations / Servers to create new policies for the same applications version 8. The names of policies and tasks created in this way contain the word "converted".
Create a Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8 for Windows installation task for client computers with installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 MP4 for Windows Workstations / Servers.

We recommend:

Creating relocation rules for servers and workstations according to OS type.
Configuring administration groups and reassign servers and workstations in these groups after installing Network Agents.
Creating a Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8 for Windows installation task for each group.
Assigning an active policy for each group.
