The driver upgrade process involves upgrading the installed driver packages and updating the driver files.
This section provides general instructions for updating a driver. For information about updating the driver to a specific version, search for that driver patch in the NetIQ Patch Finder Download Page and follow the instructions from the Readme file accompanying the driver patch release.
Before starting the upgrade process, ensure that you have taken a back-up of the current driver configuration.
Download the latest available packages.
To configure Designer to automatically read the package updates when a new version of a package is available, click Windows > Preferences > NetIQ > Package Manager > Online Updates in Designer. However, if you need to add a custom package to the Package Catalog, you can import the package .jar file.
