3. Installation
and configuration
Follow the instructions in this section to download and install this
interim fix in your cluster.
System requirements
Linux x86_64 or Linux
ppc64le
Installation
a.
Log
in to the cluster management console as the cluster administrator and stop all
Instance groups.
b.
Log
on to the master host as the cluster administrator:
> egosh
user logon -u Admin -x Admin
c.
Stop
all services and shut down the cluster:
> egosh
service stop all
> egosh ego shutdown all
d.
Log on to
each host in your cluster (root or sudo-to-root
permission).
e.
Define
the CLUSTERADMIN environment variable and set it to any valid
operating user account, which then owns all installation files, for example:
> export CLUSTERADMIN=egoadmin
f.
Upgrade
the JRE by using the RPM in this interim fix (note that RPM version 4.2.1 or
later must be installed on the host):
> mkdir -p /tmp/sc240build535960
> tar zxof conductor2.4.0.0_os_type_build535960.tgz -C /tmp/sc240build535960
> rpm -ivh --replacefiles --prefix $EGO_TOP --dbpath dbpath_location
/tmp/sc240build535960/egojre-8.0.6.0.os_type.rpm
where $EGO_TOP specifies the path to where the cluster is
installed, os_type is either x86_64 or pcc64le, and dbpath_location
specifies the path to your database.
g.
Source
the cluster profile again and start the cluster:
> egosh ego start all
The cshrc.jre and profile.jre files are updated to the current JRE version. If you
made copies of these files, ensure that you update the copied files with the
new JRE version.
h.
Log in to
the cluster management console as the cluster administrator and start the
required Instance groups.
i. Run the rpm –qa command to verify the installation:
> rpm -qa --dbpath dbpath_location |grep egojre
egojre-8.0.6.0-535960.os_type
where os_type is either x86_64 or pcc64le.
4. Uninstallation
If required, follow the instructions in this section to uninstall this
interim fix in your cluster.
a. Log in to the cluster management
console as the cluster administrator and stop all Instance groups.
b. Log on to the master host as the
cluster administrator:
>
egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin
c. Stop services and shut down the
cluster:
>
egosh service stop all
> egosh
ego shutdown all
d. Log on to each host in your cluster
(root or sudo-to-root permission).
e. Define
the CLUSTERADMIN environment variable and set
it to any valid operating user account, which then owns all installation files,
for example:
> export CLUSTERADMIN=egoadmin
f. Uninstall the existing JRE and install the old JRE (note that RPM version 4.2.1 or later must be installed on the host):
> rpm -e
egojre-8.0.6.0-535960.os_type --dbpath dbpath_location --nodeps
where os_type is either x86_64 or pcc64le and dbpath_location
specifies the path to your database.
> rpm -qa --dbpath dbpath_location |grep egojre
For each previous egojre rpm, run:
> rpm -e egojre_name --dbpath dbpath_location --nodeps
Then, install the old
JRE:
>
mkdir -p /tmp/extract240
>
conductor2.4.0.0_os_type.bin --extract /tmp/extract240
> rpm -ivh
--prefix $EGO_TOP --dbpath dbpath_location /tmp/extract240/egojre-*.rpm
where $EGO_TOP specifies the path to where the cluster is
installed, os_type is either x86_64 or pcc64le, and dbpath_location
specifies the path to your database.
g. Source the cluster profile again and start the cluster:
> egosh ego start all
h. Log in to the cluster management console as the cluster administrator
and start the required Spark instance groups.
