GUI/ASCD/PMC/Explorer/conductorspark, Linux x86_64 or Linux ppc64le, sc-2.5-build600141

3.    Installation

Follow the instructions in this section to download and install this enhancement to your cluster.

System requirements

 Linux x86_64 or Linux ppc64le

Installation

a.       Log on to the management host as the cluster administrator:

> source profile.platform

> egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin

b.       Stop all services:

> egosh service stop all

c.       On each of your management hosts (or just one management host if you are using a shared file system), delete the unused directory and move them to a backup directory (for example, /tmp/backup):

 > sh DeleteAndBackup.sh /tmp/backup

Note: Running the DeleteAndBackup.sh command automatically backs up the current binary files to your specific backup directory for recovery purposes. Do not delete this backup directory; you will need it if you want to recover the original files. If you need manually delete the original jar file in the backup directory, go to the /tmp/backup/BackupFor600141 directory and delete the file. 

d.     On each of your management hosts (or just one management host if you are using a shared file system):

i.       Download the following packages (for example, to a /conductorfixes directory):

·      conductorsparkmgmt-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

·      egomgmt-3.9.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

·      ascd-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

·      conductorsparkcore- 2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz

Note: In the following steps, you will use the egoinstallfixes command to install these packages. Running the 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 

ii.      Install the conductorsparkmgmt-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz package:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/conductorsparkmgmt-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

iii.     Install the egomgmt-3.9.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz package:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/egomgmt-3.9.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

iv.     Install the ascd-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz package:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/ascd-2.5.0.0_noarch_build600141.tar.gz

v.     Install the conductorsparkcore-2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz package:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/conductorsparkcore-2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz

vi.    Run the pversions command to verify the installation:

pversions -b 600141

e.     On each of your compute hosts (skip this step if you are using a shared file system):

i.     Download the following package (for example, to a /conductorfixes directory):

 ·     conductorsparkcore-2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz

Note: In the following steps, you will use the egoinstallfixes command to install these packages. Running the 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

ii.   Install the conductorsparkcore-2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz package:

$ egoinstallfixes /conductorfixes/conductorsparkcore-2.5.0.0_[x86_64|ppc64le]_build600141.tar.gz

iii.   Run the pversions command to verify the installation:

$ pversions -b 600141 

f.      Delete all subdirectories and files from the following directories:

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/gui/work/*

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/gui/workarea/*

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/kernel/rest/workarea/*

Note: If you configured the WLP_OUTPUT_DIR parameter and APPEND_HOSTNAME_TO_WLP_OUTPUT_DIR is set to true in the $EGO_CONFDIR/wlp.conf file, you must clean up the $WLP_OUTPUT_DIR/webgui_hostname/gui/workarea/ directory.

g.       Launch your browser and clear the browser cache.

h.       Start all services:

> egosh service start all 

4.    Uninstallation

If required, follow the instructions in this section to uninstall this enhancement from your cluster:

a.       Log on to the management host as the cluster administrator and stop all services:

> source profile.platform

> egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin

> egosh service stop all

b.       On each management host (or just one host if you are using a shared file system), roll back this interim fix using the egoinstallfixes command:

> egoinstallfixes -r 600141

c.       On each of your compute hosts, roll back this interim fix using the egoinstallfixes command (skip this step if you are using a shared file system):

> egoinstallfixes -r 600141

d.       On each management host (or just one host if you are using a shared file system), roll back this enchantment from your backup directory (specified in the installation step):

sh rollback.sh /tmp/backup

e.       Change the files owner to the cluster administrator:

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_CONFDIR/../../conductorspark/conf/dataconnectors

 

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_TOP/conductorspark/activation/conductorsparkcore2.5.0/conf/dataconnectors

 

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_TOP/explorer/10.1.1/node_modules/pa-log/node_modules

 

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_TOP/explorer/10.1.1/public/explorer/bower_componets

 

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_TOP/wlp/usr/servers/gui/apps/ego/3.9/platform/fusioncharts

 

> chown -Rh $CLUSTERADMIN:$ADMINGROUP $EGO_TOP/wlp/usr/servers/gui/apps/conductor/2.5.0/conductorgui/bower_components

 

Note:  CLUSTERADMIN is your cluster administrator account (for example, egoadmin),  ADMINGROUP is the operating system group for your cluster administrator. 

 

f.        Delete all subdirectories and files from the following directories:

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/gui/work/*

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/gui/workarea/*

> rm -rf $EGO_TOP/kernel/rest/workarea/*

Note: If you configured the WLP_OUTPUT_DIR parameter and APPEND_HOSTNAME_TO_WLP_OUTPUT_DIR is set to true in the $EGO_CONFDIR/wlp.conf file, you must clean up the $WLP_OUTPUT_DIR/webgui_hostname/gui/workarea/ directory.

g.       Launch your browser and clear the browser cache.

h.       Start all services:

> egosh service start all
