IBM Domino 9.0 Social Edition Administrator Help

INSTALLING

Using the Smart Upgrade Run-As wizard
Use the Smart Upgrade Run-As wizard (SUSETRUNASWIZARD.EXE) to create an executable file (SURUNAS.EXE) that IBM® Lotus Notes® client users, running on Microsoft™ Windows™, can run to upgrade their Notes® clients. SURUNAS is ideal for pushing Notes client upgrades to users who do not have administrator or elevated privileges.

The SURUNAS.EXE executable runs as a user with administrator privileges. You specify the administrator user name and password in the Smart Upgrade Run-As wizard. While the wizard is running, specify the Notes install setup.exe to use when the user runs SURUNAS.EXE. The setup.exe file that you specify is either stored in SURUNAS.EXE or you can specify a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path to a shared network drive from which that setup file can be accessed. In addition to specifying the setup file to be used, you also specify any other files to be included in the install kit. The Smart Upgrade Run-As wizard creates the install kit that the Notes client end users run to upgrade their Notes clients.

Note: For related information, see "Using the Smart Upgrade Run As feature to upgrade Notes clients" at the Lotus® Support Site and SURUNAS posts in the Lotus Notes and Domino® wiki. Also see the Upgrade Cookbook in the Lotus Notes and Domino wiki.

While running the wizard, you can store the new executable in a self-contained package in the SURUNAS.EXE or as a file reference to a network share.

After you create the SURUNAS.EXE file, you can push it to users with Smart Upgrade. The wizard embeds a command line into the SURUNAS.EXE so there are no additional command line options needed. See "Using Notes Smart Upgrade" for next steps.

Note: Use the /w command line argument with Smart Upgrade Run-As. For other options, see the following table.
