Upgrade to IBM® Case Foundation by
installing IBM Case Foundation using
the silent response file.
Before you begin
Be sure that you have available
the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that was completed during your
planning activities.
Procedure
- Open your completed
Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.
Tip: In
the worksheet file, verify that the command is enabled. To view only IBM Case Foundation values, filter by CF
Installer in the Installation or Configuration
Program column.
- If you are upgrading on the same machine where Content Engine was previously installed,
log on as the same user who originally installed that software. The
installation program requires this to detect that it is an upgrade
and to use the same installation path. If you are upgrading on a new
machine, where Content Engine has
never been installed, log on as the cpe_install_user.
The latter would be the case where you are doing a migration upgrade,
installing on a new machine but upgrading an existing database.
- Navigate
to the IBM Case Foundation software
package in the installation media.
- Edit the CaseFoundation_silent_install.txt file
to reflect the installation choices in your worksheet.
- Run one of the following
commands in the software package, depending on your operating system:

5.2.1-P8CaseFoundation-AIX.BIN -i silent -f CaseFoundation_silent_install.txt |

Windows |
5.2.1-P8CaseFoundation-WIN.EXE -i silent -f CaseFoundation_silent_install.txt |
- When the installation completes, check for errors in the IBM Case Foundation log file case_foundation_install_path/casefoundation_install_log_5.2.1.txt,
where case_foundation_install_path is the location
where IBM Case Foundation is installed.
Also check the file case_foundation_install_path/caseFoundation_install_summary.txt to
see a summary of the installation.
