Before upgrading on installing the SCAP Module, review the following considerations:
You can upgrade to SCAP module 7.1 from version 7.0.
If you have Windows agents at version 6.1 or later without an SCAP module installed, update the agents to version 7.1 then install the SCAP module.
If you have Windows agents at version 7.1, you can deploy the SCAP module for Windows Agent from the Secure Configuration Manager console using the deployment wizard.
Either install the SCAP module for Windows Agent component locally on the agent computer or use the console to deploy a .nap package to remote agent computers. For more information about installing and deploying the SCAP module for Windows agent component, see the Checklist for Upgrading and Installing.
(Conditional) You can upgrade the SCAP Module for Secure Configuration Manager and the SCAP module for Windows Agent from version 6.1 or later to version 7.1 on a local computer only by using the command line. For more information, see the Checklist for Upgrading and Installing.
