Omnicast™ Federation™ roles and Omnicast compatibility packs are no longer supported and must be removed from your system when upgrading Security Center to version 5.12.0.0 or later.

Before you begin

  • Upgrade your Omnicast system to a supported Security Center version. For more information, see the Omnicast Migration Guide.
  • Take note of how you have configured your federated entities in your Omnicast Federation role before you remove the role from your system. After you migrate the Omnicast system to Security Center and re-federate it now using the Security Center Federation role, you will have to reconfigure the federated entities with the same values.

What you should know

Omnicast Federation roles that remain in the system after the upgrade will be offline and highlighted in red.

Procedure

  1. From the Config Tool homepage, open the System task and click the Roles view.
  2. Select all Omnicast Federation roles, right-click, then click Delete > Continue > Delete.
  3. From your Windows Control Panel, open the Programs and Features applet.
  4. In the Programs and Features window, right-click each instance of the Genetec™ Omnicast Compatibility Package, and then click Uninstall > Yes.

After you finish

Upgrade your system.
