3. Products or components affected

Component name, Platform, Fix ID:

ascd / conductormgmt, Linux x86_64, sc-2.3-build515101

4. Installation and configuration

a. Log on to the Linux master host as the cluster administrator and source your environment:

(BASH) . $EGO_TOP/profile.platform

(CSH) source $EGO_TOP/cshrc.platform

b. Stop the ascd, REST, and WEBGUI services:

$ egosh service stop ascd REST WEBGUI

c. On each of your Linux management hosts (or just one host if you are using a shared file system), download the conductormgmt-2.3.0.0_noarch_build515101.tar.gz, egomgmt-3.7.0.1_noarch_build515101.tar.gz, ascd-2.3.0.0_noarch_build515101.tar.gz, and egorest-3.7.0.1_noarch_build515101.tar.gz packages to, for example, a /conductorfixes directory.

d. Use the “egoinstallfixes” command to install each of the packages in the order specified:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/conductormgmt-2.3.0.0_noarch_build515101.tar.gz

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/egomgmt-3.7.0.1_noarch_build515101.tar.gz

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/ascd-2.3.0.0_noarch_build515101.tar.gz

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/egorest-3.7.0.1_noarch_build515101.tar.gz

NOTE: Running this “egoinstallfixes” command automatically backs up the current binary files to a fix backup directory for recovery purposes. Do not delete this backup directory; you will need it if you want to recover the original files.

e. Run the “pversions” command to verify the installation:

$ pversions -b 515101

f. Edit the $EGO_CONFDIR/../../gui/conf/pmcconf/pmc_conf_ego.xml file and define your values for the following parameters for LDAP authentication:

                                <Parameter>
                        <Name>LDAPURL</Name>
                        <Value></Value>
                </Parameter>
                <Parameter>
                        <Name>LDAPDN</Name>
                        <Value></Value>
                </Parameter>
                <Parameter>
                        <Name>LDAPUSERSEARCHFILTER</Name>
                        <Value></Value>
                </Parameter>
                <Parameter>
                        <Name>LDAPDOMAIN</Name>
                        <Value></Value>
                </Parameter>

g. Start the ascd, REST, and WEBGUI services:

$ egosh service start ascd REST WEBGUI

h. Clear your browser cache and log in to the cluster management console as usual.

5. Uninstallation

a. Log on to the Linux master host as the cluster administrator and source your environment:

(BASH) . $EGO_TOP/profile.platform

(CSH) source $EGO_TOP/cshrc.platform

b. Stop the ascd, REST, and WEBGUI services:

$ egosh service stop ascd REST WEBGUI
