This fix resolves the following issues: 1. The job submission form displays the last selected input file but does not save it. 2. The startup priority for the perf process in perfsetrc.sh is incorrectly set to S40 instead of S95. 3. When profile.platform is sourced many times, the resulting $PATH is too long. 4. Whenever MBD is busy, automatic job data purging does not work properly for jobs submitted with Platform Application Center.

  • 5.2  Installation steps

    The following steps assume IBM Platform Application Center is installed in ${PAC_TOP}.
    Replace with your actual installation directory.

    • Determine the location of your existing IBM Application Center installation.
      #rpm -q --queryformat "%{INSTPREFIXES}\n" pcc-appcenter
    • Back up your existing installation directory.
      #cp -rfp ${PAC_TOP} ${PAC_TOP}.bak
    • Complete this step only if you are using a local MySQL database.
      Export your local IBM Platform Application Center MySQL database by using the following command:
      #mysqldump -u pacuser -p pac --add-drop-table > /root/pacdata.sql
    • Download the fix file: pac9.1.3_standard_linux-x64.tar.Z.
    • Extract pac9.1.3_standard_linux-x64.tar.Z.
    • As root, log on to your IBM Platform Application Center 9.1.3 host.
    • Set your IBM Platform Application Center environment:
      For csh or tcsh:
      % source ${PAC_TOP}/cshrc.platform
      For sh, ksh, or bash:
      $ . ${PAC_TOP}/profile.platform
    • Install the fix.
      rpm -Uvh --prefix ${PAC_TOP} --nopreun pcc-appcenter-9.1.3-345589.x86_64.rpm
      Note: Replace ${PAC_TOP} with your actual installation directory.
  • 5.3 After installation

    Go through this step only if you have customized profile.platform or cshrc.platform.
    Your previous files are cshrc.platform.old and profile.platform.old.
    Copy your customizations from these files into profile.platform or cshrc.platform.
