Prerequisites

Fix 601490 must be installed before applying this fix package.

System requirements

Linux x86_64               

Preinstallation

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

(BASH) . $EGO_TOP/profile.platform

(CSH) source $EGO_TOP/cshrc.platform

b.   Log on as the cluster administrator, disable all applications and stop all EGO services:

> egosh user logon -u Admin -x password

> soamcontrol app disable all -f

> egosh service stop all

Installing on IBM Spectrum Symphony management and compute hosts

a.     Download the fix packages egocore-3.9.0.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz and soamcore-7.3.1.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz to each management and compute host (or to just one host if you are using a shared file system), for example, to a /symfixes directory.

b.     Run the egoinstallfixes command to install the egocore-3.9.0.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz and soamcore-7.3.1.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz files:

> egoinstallfixes /symfixes/egocore-3.9.0.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz

> egoinstallfixes /symfixes/soamcore-7.3.1.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz


Note: 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. For more information on using this command, see the egoinstallfixes command reference.

Installing on IBM Spectrum Symphony client hosts

a.     Log on to the IBM Spectrum Symphony client host and stop the running client.

b.     On each Linux client host, back up the following files:

$SOAM_HOME/lib64/libsoambase.so

$SOAM_HOME/lib/libsoambase.so

$SOAM_HOME/lib64/libsoamdeploy.so.7.3.1

$SOAM_HOME/lib/libsoamdeploy.so.7.3.1

c.     On each IBM Spectrum Symphony client host, download the symclnt-7.3.1.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz package and decompress it to the $SOAM_HOME directory:

$ tar zxfo symclnt-7.3.1.0_x86_64_build601523.tar.gz -C $SOAM_HOME

Post Installation

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

(BASH) . $EGO_TOP/profile.platform

(CSH) source $EGO_TOP/cshrc.platform

b.     Start the EGO services and enable the application.

> egosh service start service_name

> soamcontrol app enable application_name

5.   Uninstallation

If required, follow the instructions in this section to uninstall this interim fix from your cluster.

Uninstalling from management and compute hosts

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

> egosh user logon -u Admin -x password

> soamcontrol app disable all -f

> egosh service stop all

c.     From each of your management and compute host (or just one host if you are using a shared file system), roll back this fix:

> egoinstallfixes -r 601523

d.     Start the EGO services and enable the application:

> egosh service start service_name

> soamcontrol app enable application_name
