Point of contact profile configuration after an upgrade (Federation)

The point of contact profile configuration process changed compared to how it was handled before release 9.0.1. In releases before 9.0.1, the point of contact was configured by using poc.* advanced configuration parameters. The upgrade process maps these values to callback parameters in a point of contact profile. Depending on the upgrade scenario, the upgrade makes the following changes:

Upgrade scenario Changes
From fresh 9.0.1 installation to 9.0.2 or later None
From previously upgraded 9.0.1 to 9.0.2 or later

  1. Copies the values of the poc.* advanced configuration parameters to the point of contact profile named Advanced configuration. The values of the equivalent callback parameters are shown in Table 1.

  2. Deletes the poc.* advanced configuration properties that were moved to the Advanced configuration profile. The only way we can update these parameters now is using the callback parameters.

  3. Makes the Advanced configuration profile editable. We now edit the callback parameters for this profile.

  4. Does not change the other point of contact profiles.
Any release before 9.0.1 to 9.0.2 or later.

  1. Keeps the read-only current profile, which was on the appliance before the upgrade. This current profile is called Advanced configuration.

  2. Removes the other obsolete profiles.

  3. Copies the values of the poc.* advanced configuration parameters to the point of contact profile named Advanced configuration. The values of the equivalent callback parameters are shown in Table 1.

  4. Deletes the poc.* advanced configuration properties that were moved to the Advanced configuration profile. The only way we can update these parameters now is using the callback parameters.

  5. Makes the Advanced configuration profile editable. We now edit the callback parameters for this profile.

There are also three preconfigured point of contact profiles which support three EAI authentication methods.
