The Update Installer for
IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for WebSphere V6.0 provides the
following functionality:
This readme describes how to use the update installer.
6.0.0.2
6.0.0.1
This section describes
how to install Fix Packs and interim fixes.
The Fix Packs and
interim fixes are distributed as tar files. Create a temporary directory, put the update package there and un-tar. Ensure
that only DC tar files are extracted for a DC fix pack upgrade. Having DC and
MS tar files extracted together in the same directory will lead to error during
install.
After un-taring the update package you should get the updates
directory that contains the file with the *.update extension. For example:
>tar xvf
6.0.0.1-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-IF0002.tar
6.0.0.1-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-IF0002.README
updates/
updates/6.0.0.1-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-IF0002.update
Copy the update
installer tar to the same directory were you un-tared
the update package. This directory will typically contain the updates subdirectory. Un-tar the update
installer package using the tar command, for example:
>tar xvf ITCAMfWAS_V6_UpdateInstaller.tar
silentUpdate.bat
silentUpdate.properties
silentUpdate.sh
update.jar
The resulting
directory structure will contain both, the update installer and the update
file. For example:
silentUpdate.bat
silentUpdate.properties
silentUpdate.sh
update.jar
6.0.0.1-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-IF0002.README
updates/6.0.0.1-TIV-ITCAMfWAS_MP-IF0002.update
Before running the
update installer you should login as root (Administrator) or owner of the
product directory. Then update the environment as below.
The update installer
requires the Java Runtime Environment version 1.3.1 or higher. Either include
the java command into PATH or define the JAVA_HOME environment variable to
point to the Java Runtime Environment home directory. It is recommended to use
the JRE which comes with the WebSphere Installation located at $WAS_HOME/java.
For example, on UNIX
or Linux, run:
JAVA_HOME=/opt/WebSphere/AppServer/java
export
JAVA_HOME
The update installer
is a non-interactive silent installer that works based on the response file.
The default name of the response file is silentUpdate.properties
and it is supplied with the update installer. Update the response file as
follows:
Note: the response file is Java Properties file. Any backward-slashes should be
doubled, for example:
product.location=C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\WSAM
To reduce the
application server or Managing Server down-time the update installer allows to prepare installation while the product is running. This
steps is optional but is recommended.
In order to prepare
installation change to the directory where the update installer scripts are
stored and run the following command:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat –prepareInstall
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -prepareInstall
If your response file
is named differently then the default silentUpdate.properties
then specify it as a parameter:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat -prepareInstall my.properties
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -prepareInstall
my.properties
A typical output of
the -prepareInstall command is:
>./silentUpdate.sh -prepareInstall
Update installer version 6.0.0.2

Action: prepare install
Finished successfully
If you decide to not
install the update after you already run -prepareInstall
then you can clean results of the ‘-prepareInstall’
command. In order to do that change to the directory
where the update installer scripts are stored and run the following command:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat –cleanPrepared
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh –cleanPrepared
If your response file
is named differently then the default silentUpdate.properties
then specify it as a parameter:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat -cleanPrepared my.properties
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -cleanPrepared
my.properties
A typical output of
the -cleanPrepared command is:
>./silentUpdate.sh -cleanPrepared
Update installer version 6.0.0.2
Logging details into /opt/IBM/itcam/WebSphere/MS/logs/update/update_20050916213723.log
Action: clean prepared

It is recommended that
you run the -prepareInstall command before installing
the update, see the previous section for details.
Before installing the
update you should stop the product that you will update, i.e. the application
server being monitored or the Managing Server components.
After you stopped the
product change to the directory where the update installer scripts are stored
and run the following command.
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat –install
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -install
If your response file
is named differently then the default silentUpdate.properties
then specify it as a parameter:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat -install my.properties
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -install my.properties
A typical output of
the -install command is:
>./silentUpdate.sh -install
Update installer version 6.0.0.2

Action: install

If the -install
command fails and the automatic rollback fails also then the runtime will be
locked for the updates until the rollback is completed successfully. In order
to complete the rollback successfully do the
following:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat –rollback
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh –rollback
If your response file
is named differently then the default silentUpdate.properties
then specify it as a parameter:
Windows:
silentUpdate.bat -rollback my.properties
UNIX or Linux:
./silentUpdate.sh -rollback my.properties
A typical output of
the -rollback command is:
>./silentUpdate.sh -rollback
Update installer version 6.0.0.2

This section describes
how to uninstall Fix Packs and interim fixes.
The all necessary
uninstall information is stored to the product directory under the update sub-directory. You don’t need
the original update package in order to uninstall it. So download the latest update
installer and un-tar it:
>tar xvf ITCAMfWAS_V6_UpdateInstaller.tar
silentUpdate.bat
silentUpdate.properties
silentUpdate.sh
update.jar
