Prior to installation
Before installing TNPMW 9.2 Interim Fix 1, perform the following steps:
$ tar -xvf 9.2.0.38-TIV-TNPMW-IF0001.tar
The following two files should now be
available:
vallent-vt-patch-P92038007-PMW9.2.0.38.007.tar.gz
9.2.0.38-TIV-TNPMW-IF0001.README
2) Verify that the database is
running.
All other services should be
stopped (sap stop).
As user root:
#
ksh
# export WMCROOT=
/appl/virtuo
Run the patch
deploy
#
$WMCROOT/admin/common/install/scripts/deploy_patch -wmcr /appl/virtuo -patch
vallent-vt-patch-P92038007-PMW9.2.0.38.007.tar.gz
Providing /appl as the location of the patch.
3) Run the post installation script
As user virtuo:
$ cd
/appl/virtuo/admin/support/bin
$
./post_install_TNPMW920_IF001.ksh
Note: The script
post_install_TNPMW920_IF001.ksh prompts the user for the Oracle
'sys' password and this must be provided in order for the script to run.
4) To complete the installation, the following
commands must be run.
The application server should be
started prior to running these command(sap start as).
As user virtuo:
a) Update the data dictionary with extra
supplementary tables created for busy hour storage
$ sbh_ext_tab_upgrader
b) Remove
secondary key fields dependencies
$
sbh_sk_remover -i
c) Provision
the Stored Busy Hour KPIs
$ sbh_admin -reprovision -n
%
Post Installation Instrustions
TNPMW 9.2 stored busy hours(SBH) does not
support the provisioning of secondary key fields.
Prior to provisioning of
SBH definitions, the following command must be run.
As user
virtuo:
$ sbh_sk_remover -f <BusyHourInstance.xml>
The sbh_sk_remover tool removes secondary key
fields from SBH definitions to enable
provisioning on the TNPMW 9.2
system.
This command will read the input file, remove
all SBH definitions that use a secondary
key field as a determiner and remove
secondary key fields from all other SBH definitions
in the file.
The input file will be backed up with the
original file name with the suffix “_original”
added before the xml
extension, and a new modified file output with the original file name.
For
example:
$ sbh_sk_remover -f BusyHourInstance.xml
will result in output file:
BusyHourInstance.xml
and a back up copy of the original file named:
BusyHourInstance_original.xml

Uninstalling if necessary
Uninstalling Interim Fix
1
When the IF01 patch is uninstalled, the system will be rolled back to the previous version of TNPMW which was installed.
The only supported upgrade path for IF01 is on top of 9.2.0 GA. So when IF01 is uninstalled the system is rolled back to 9.2.0 GA.
The patch can be removed by running the following commands:
1) All services, apart from the database, should be stopped (sap stop):
Verify that the services are not running using the following command:
$ sap disp
2) As user root:
$ ksh
$ cd
/appl/virtuo/admin/software/core
$
./vallent-vt-patch-P92038007.remove
3) As user virtuo:
$ ksh
$ cd
/appl/virtuo/admin/support/bin
$ ./uninstall_TNPMW920_IF001.ksh
Note: The script
uninstall_TNPMW920_IF001.ksh prompts the user for the
Oracle
'sys'
password and this must be provided in order for the script to run.
