The Protection Server management plug-in is updated by installing a new version of the management plug-in. Depending on the console you are using to manage Kaspersky Security Center, you will need to install:
- Management MMC plug-ins for Light Agent for Linux (Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux running in Light Agent mode).
- Management web plug-ins for Light Agent for Linux (Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux running in Light Agent mode).
After installing the Protection Server management plug-in, it is recommended to run the Download updates to the repository task in Kaspersky Security Center and make sure that the task completes successfully. For details, please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center help.
If you are using the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console to manage solution components, after updating MMC management plug-ins, you can migrate previous policy and task settings to policies and tasks of the updated version of solution components.
Management plug-ins of the previous version continue to operate after installation of the new version of the Kaspersky Security management plug-ins. You can use them to manage SVMs and Light Agents of the previous version of Kaspersky Security.
After all the application components are updated, you can remove the management plug-ins of the previous version.
If you are using the Light Agent for Windows component included in Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.2 Light Agent, management plug-ins of Protection Server version 5.2 should continue to work.
