Updating SUN IdM 6.0 to IdM 7.1
1 Updating SUN IdM 6.0 to IdM 7.1
Pre Installation Tasks
NOTE:
1. All the steps should be executed only on one Prod jvm.
2. Before executing any steps, please go through all the steps in the document.
3. All the steps must be executed with IdM Upgrade Team. Screen share (Net Meeting) is required for it.
For Installing the IDM7.1 on existing IdM 6.0 Deployment, certain steps must be taken care, for recoverability of the application.
- Take full backup of the existing idm installation directory. On Prod box () the location is:
/appbin/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer1/……../idm_war.ear/idm.war
Place the backup files at location
/………./ on Production box ()
- 2. Copy the ServerRepository.xml from
$WSHOME/WEB-INF/ to /appbin/………./serverrepositorybackup/ on Prod Box
- If available remove the Cryptix jars (cryptix-jceapi.jar and cryptix-jce-provider.jar) from the $WSHOME/WEB-INF/lib/ directory on Prod box by doing the following.
rm $WSHOME/WEB-INF/lib/cryptix-jceapi.jar
rm $WSHOME/WEB-INF/lib/cryptix-jce-provider.jar
export WSHOME=
/appbin/IBM/WebSphere/……../idm_war.ear/idm.war
export PATH=/usr/jdk/jdk1.5.0_14/bin:$PATH
- echo $WSHOME (make sure that wshome is pointing to right path)
Note: It may show an error because idm repo is converted to 7.1 & IdM application is still IdM 6.0. So Unix Team will give the error message to Upgrade Team. Upgrade Team will take the decision for next step.
Applying the Upgrade
Update IDM manually on Linux/Unix environment.
WEB-TEAM Tasks
Do this for one Application Server.
- Stop App JVM’s on Prod Box.
- Set the environment
export WSHOME=/appbin/IBM/WebSphere/………………/idm_war.ear/idm.war
export TEMP=/appbin/IdMUpgradeRelatedData/tempupgradeidm71/TEMP
export SOURCE=/appbin/IdMUpgradeRelatedData/tempupgradeidm71/SOURCE
- Verify if variables have been set by doing the following
echo $WSHOME
echo $TEMP
echo $SOURCE
echo $DISPLAY
echo $PATH
echo $JAVA_HOME
- Run pre-process in the following order:
cd $TEMP
jar -xvf $SOURCE/………/idmcommon.jar
export CLASSPATH=$TEMP/WEB-INF/lib/idm.jar:$TEMP/WEB-
INF/lib/idmcommon.jar:$WSHOME/WEB-INF/lib/ojdbc14.jar:$WSHOME/WEB-INF/lib/j2ee.jar:
- echo $CLASSPATH (VERIFY if classpath has been set properly)
- Run the set command again to check whether CLASSPATH is set correctly or not
- Execute the following command
java -classpath $CLASSPATH -Dwaveset.home=$WSHOME
com.waveset.install.UpgradePreProcess
- Install software by running the following command:
cd $WSHOME
jar –xvf $SOURCE/idm.war
- Copy the ServerRepository.xml file from
/appbin/IdMUpgradeRelatedData/……/.backup/ to
$WSHOME/WEB-INF/ on Prod Box ().
- Check the ServerRepository.xml is pointing the same database where it should point to. With the following command
cd $WSHOME/bin
./lh setRepo -c –v
The above command must show that IdM is pointing to <Host IP>:1596: idmpr01 and schema <IdM repo> database.
- Run post-process by running the following command at shell prompt
} Run the below command for Post process.
java -classpath $CLASSPATH -Dwaveset.home=$WSHOME
com.waveset.install.UpgradePostProcess
} Change the directory to $WSHOME/bin/solaris or $WSHOME/bin/linux, and then set permissions on the files in the directory so that they are executable as
chmod +x $WSHOME/bin/solaris/*
chmod +x $WSHOME/bin/linux/*
- During the upgrade process some files may not be installed properly.
IdM Upgrade Team will help to install that files.
} Copy the contents from
$WSHOME/patches/………./includes/ TO
$WSHOME/includes/
} Copy the contents from
$WSHOME/patches/………/filesNotInstalled/user/ TO
$WSHOME/user/
} Copy the contents from
$WSHOME/patches/………/filesNotInstalled/styles/ TO
$WSHOME/styles/
- Remove the files from the jvm’s work/cache directory. Location is like
/appbin/IBM/WebSphere/……………./idm_war/idm.war
Note: Unix Team will verify this before deleting the cache.
- Check the ServerRepository.xml is pointing the same database where it should point to. With the following command.
cd $WSHOME/bin
lh setRepo -c –v
It should point to the right database.
15. Touch all the .jsp’s in $WSHOME directory including all the subdirectories.
find . -name ‘*.jsp’ -exec touch {} \;
- Start the application server to verify whether it’s running properly.
To start/stop the server
Go to location
/appbin/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer1/profiles/idmapp01/bin
./stopServer.sh server1
./startServer.sh server1
