Script #1: Platform Upgrade
Before installing the iControl upgrade package, it is important that you perform a platform upgrade. This
ensures that your Application Server’s operating system contains all the components and libraries that are
needed by iControl.
To perform a platform upgrade:
1. Download or copy the iControl Upgrade Package to a client PC on the same network as the iControl
Application Server to be upgraded.
2. On the Start menu, point to All Programs, then to Accessories, and click Command Prompt.
A DOS command line window appears.
3. In the DOS command line window, open an FTP session on the Application Server by typing the
following command:
ftp AAA.BB.CC.DD
where AAA.BBB.CC.DD is the Application Server’s IP address (e.g. 10.0.3.6 ).
4. When prompted, type the user name and password.
Note: Application Servers are configured by default with the user name miranda and the
password icontrol , but these may have been changed by your system administrator.
