Must I disable Cisco-verified applications?
Except for the first operating system installation, you must disable Cisco Security Agent as well as any
third-party, Cisco-verified applications on your servers whenever you perform a reinstallation or upgrade
of the operating system.
Caution
To successfully complete installation, upgrade, or restoration procedures, you must disable and stop all
Cisco-verified applications/services on every server in the cluster.
To disable services, choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. From
the Services window, right-click the service and click Properties. Click the drop-down arrow for the
Startup-type field and choose Disabled. Click Stop; then, click OK.
Disabling and stopping platform agents and services, such as Cisco Security Agent, performance
monitoring (for example, NetIQ), antivirus service (for example, Cisco-verified McAfee services), and
remote management services, ensure that the installation does not encounter issues that are associated
with these services.
