asa 5520 9.1(7) upgrading the asdm

[baselzind]

i have a customer who upgraded his java and cannot open his asdm anymore , he asked me to upgrade his asdm so that new java would open the asdm again , the customer currently have:

5520 with 

firmware 9.1(7)

asdm-716.bin which i guess mean 7.1

the Cisco driver webpage shows the latest version is 7.9 , can i upgrade the asdm only with the current firmware version ? can i jump directly to 7.9 ? would the configuration get affected?

Hi,

yes, you can use the latest asdm on that firmware.
asdm-716.bin is version 7.1.6

here is the compatibility matrix:

would asdm update change the configuration?

No, you can do it live on the system.
No need to reboot or change anything else.
