Installing components after initial installation

Is it possible to install additional components -- in my case, Asimba, which I don't think I installed when I initially set up my server -- without overwriting current configuration? I don't want to lose my oxAuth/oxTrust customizations, and I don't want to have to reinstall the SSL certificate I purchased.... Thanks

Hello Steve, It's not possible atm. Here is what I would do: - Grab a new VM. - Install new Gluu Server with Asimba. - Take backup of ldap configuration and restore them in new Gluu Server. - Reinstall SSL cert - Migrate customization files in new VM.

How can I determine whether Asimba is installed? I don't think I did, but before I take your advice I want to check. If it is installed, there's really no reason for me to reinstall.

Log into Gluu Server container and you will see something like this: ``` GLUU.root@test:/opt/tomcat/webapps# ls asimba asimba.war cas cas.war identity identity.war oxauth oxauth-rp oxauth-rp.war oxauth.war GLUU.root@test:/opt/tomcat/webapps# ``` From above output we can see that asimba, cas, oxTrust, oxAuth and oxAuth-RP are installed.

Documenting what I've done so far: I backed up the /opt/tomcat/webapps directory, the Tanuki wrapper config for Tomcat (which I've modified) and the LDAP database. I had to shut down Gluu to do the export, and then I ran **/opt/gluu-server-2.4.3/opt/opendj/bin/export-ldif** to actually create the LDIF file. Because I am still in the deployment/testing stage with Gluu, I only had one org, one client and one user, so I don't think I need to restore the entire database - just the client, org and user

Hi Steve, I think here is what I would do: - Get a new VM - Install Gluu Server 2.4.4 from scratch ( this time, with Asimba bits ) - Migrate specific files and configuration from old server to new one. [ I wouldn't just copy paste the whole webapps directories because there are huge differences between war files of two versions ]
