4.    Installation and configuration

Follow these steps to upgrade Jackson databind, core, and annotations .jar files for IBM Spectrum Symphony 7.2.1 and IBM Spectrum Symphony Developer Edition 7.2.1:

a.      Log on to the master host as the cluster administrator and stop the following services:

> egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin   

> egosh service stop MRSS WEBGUI HostFactory

b.      Log on to each management and compute host in the cluster and download the following packages: 

·        jackson-databind-2.9.8.jar (http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-databind/2.9.8/)

·        jackson-core-2.9.8.jar (http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-core/2.9.8/)

·        jackson-annotations-2.9.8.jar (http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-annotations/2.9.8/)

c.       For recovery purposes, move the following files to a backup directory on management host: 

> mkdir -p /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/

> mkdir -p /tmp/guilib/

> mkdir -p /tmp/hflib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/soam/mapreduce/7.2.1/linux-x86_64/lib/hadoop-2.7.x/jackson-annotations-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/

> mv $EGO_TOP/soam/mapreduce/7.2.1/linux-x86_64/lib/hadoop-2.7.x/jackson-core-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/

> mv $EGO_TOP/soam/mapreduce/7.2.1/linux-x86_64/lib/hadoop-2.7.x/jackson-databind-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/

> mv $EGO_TOP/wlp/usr/servers/gui/apps/ego/3.7/platformv5/WEB-INF/lib/jackson-annotations-2.9.5.jar /tmp/guilib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/wlp/usr/servers/gui/apps/ego/3.7/platformv5/WEB-INF/lib/jackson-core-2.9.5.jar /tmp/guilib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/wlp/usr/servers/gui/apps/ego/3.7/platformv5/WEB-INF/lib/jackson-databind-2.9.5.jar /tmp/guilib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/3.7/hostfactory/providers/common/lib/jackson-annotations-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hflib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/3.7/hostfactory/providers/common/lib/jackson-core-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hflib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/3.7/hostfactory/providers/common/lib/jackson-databind-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hflib/

NOTE: To avoid compatibility issues, move all old files to another directory altogether.

d.      For recovery purposes, move the following files to a backup directory on compute host: 

> mkdir -p /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/

> mkdir -p /tmp/hflib/

> mv $EGO_TOP/soam/mapreduce/7.2.1/linux-x86_64/lib/hadoop-2.7.x/jackson-annotations-2.9.5.jar /tmp/hadoop-2.7.x/
