Installation and Maintenance Information ======================================== A) Applying Maintenance to MQSeries for Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1 (UNIX V4) --------------------------------------------------------------------- These steps will ensure that you are left with files that are installable using the normal install method for your platform. +--- PRECAUTIONS ---------------------------------------+ | | | Do not have any queue managers operating during | | installation of maintenance on MQSeries for Compaq | | Tru64 UNIX V5.1 (UNIX V4). | | | | Remove any existing MQSeries shared memory and/or | | semaphores before applying or removing maintenance | | updates to MQSeries for Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1. | | | +-------------------------------------------------------+ | | | To end all running queue managers: | | | | 1. End the queue manager by issuing the command: | | | | endmqm -i QMgrName | | | | 2. Check that the queue manager has ended. | | | | Use the command: | | | | endmqm -w QMgrName | | | | The message returning should show that the queue | | manager is not available. | | | | Alternatively, use the command: | | | | ps -ef | grep mq | | | | where | is the pipe symbol. Check that there are | | no processes listed that are running command | | lines commencing "amq" or "runmq". Ignore any | | that start with "amqi". | | | | 3. Issue the IPCS -A command to identify any shared | | memory segments or semaphore sets that were | | created by MQSeries. Remove these using the | | IPCRM command. | | | +-------------------------------------------------------+ B) SPACE REQUIREMENTS ------------------ The installation process for this PTF requires 10MB of disk space for installation. In addition, the installation process requires an additional 10MB of disk space to save the previous level. This allows a PTF to be removed, and the previous level to be automatically restored. If disk space is limited, the backup can be suppressed by creating an empty flag file called PTFNOSAVE in the directory "/tmp/". This will prevent the files from being copied to "/opt/mqm/backup/$PTFNAM". Note that if this option is used, the previous level will not be restored if a PTF is removed. The only way to restore a previous level in this instance is to reinstall the product and then to reapply a previous PTF image. C) APPLYING THE MAINTENANCE INFORMATION ------------------------------------ 1. Change to the directory where the fix pack is saved. 2. Install the software by entering and executing the following command: setld -l . CSD08_BASE For further information on using to install software packages, see the Compaq Tru64 UNIX documentation. D) RESTORING THE PREVIOUS SERVICE LEVEL ------------------------------------ To restore the previous service level: 1. Log in as root, or use the command su. 2. Use the setld command to remove the latest PTF from the system. For example, to remove PTF "U200149" issue the following command: setld -d CSD08_BASE Error messages of the form "" can be ignored. Details of the SETLD command can be found in the Compaq Tru64 UNIX documentation, or by using the MAN SETLD command. 3. If you have installed an MQI client, and the client
