Problem conclusion

  • This cumulative iFix targets a number of problem areas in the GA
    release of WCM v6.0.1.4 , WCM v6.0.1.5 and WCM v6.0.1.6.
    Specifically, defects in the following areas have been targeted:
    Migration, API, Versioning, Syndication, Rendering, Authoring
    
    This fix has a co-requisite dependency on PK76701 (WebSphere
    Portal) , PK89284 (JCR. For WCM v6.0.1.4 , WCM v6.0.1.5),
    PK99291 (JCR for WCM v6.0.1.4, WCM v6.0.1.5, WCM v6.0.1.6)
    
    The migration tool now finds all orphan site areas and migrates
    these to a site called orphans. Previously it was necessary to
    run the Site Checker before migration to ensure that all orphan
    site areas were accounted for. One side effect of this feature
    is that all orphans are aggregated into the same site, even
    those which were previously found by the Site Checker.

    Installation Steps:
    
    NOTE: YOU MUST FIRST DOWNLOAD THE UPDATE INSTALLER TOOL IN ORDER
    TO INSTALL A FIX.
          The Portal Update Installer can be downloaded from the
    following link:
          http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24006942
    
    -- Do not apply this cumulative fix at the same time as another
    cumulative fix.
    -- Do not apply this cumulative fix at the same time as any
    interim fixes.  Apply interim fixes after the installation of a
    cumulative fix.
    -- Only apply this cumulative fix on a system which does not
    have a newer cumulative fix installed.
    
    Install:
    
    - Create a temporary "fix" directory to store the jar file.
    - Copy jar file to this directory.
    - Shutdown WebSphere Portal.
    - Ensure the pre-requisite fix(es) are installed.
    - Follow the fix installation instructions that are packaged
    with the Portal Update Installer on how to install a fix.
      NOTE: If a pre-requisite fix is not installed, the Portal
    Update Installer will fail and will list the missing
    pre-requisite fix(es).
    - Restart WebSphere Portal.
    - Backup any files (e.g. custom JSPs) which have been copied to
    the deployed WCM EAR or portlet WAR directories
    - Run [WPS_ROOT]\config\WPSconfig.bat|sh update-wcm
    -DPortalAdminPwd=password
    - Update the deployed remote rendering portlet:
       - Backup any files (e.g. custom JSPs) which have been copied
    to the deployed remote rendering portlet WAR directory
       - Log in to Portal as the Portal Administrator
       - Navigate to: Administration / Portlet Management / Web
    Modules
       - Find and select the remote rendering portlet web module
       - Click the Update Portlet Icon to the right of the selected
    portlet
       - Select the updated portlet WAR file located in:
    [PortalServer]\installableApps
       - Click Next and Finish
    - Log out of Portal for the changes to take effect.
    
    
    Refer to the clustering section of the Portal Information Center
    (typically 'Clustering -> Performing Upgrades in a 24x7
    cluster') for additional information on installing interim fixes
    in clustered environments while maintaining continuous
    availability of your Portal.
    
    APAR configuration:
    PK74353 (Add utility to allow bulk removal of drafts)
    
    A new DraftDetectionModule with optional 'remove' mode
    (remove=true) has been developed to automate removing drafts.
    The module must first be configured in the WCM configuration
    file (like similar modules such as the
    MemberFixer/LibraryDelete)
    before it can be used. To configure the new module, perform the
    following steps:
    1) Edit the
    \wcm\shared\app\config\wcmservices\WCMConfigService.properties
    file
    1a) Add the following three lines underneath the
    'connect.businesslogic.module' property:
    connect.businesslogic.module.draftdetection.class=com.aptrix.plu
    to.workflow.DraftDetectionModule
    connect.businesslogic.module.draftdetection.remoteaccess=true
    connect.businesslogic.module.draftdetection.autoload=false
    1b) Add 'draftdetection' to the end of the
    'connect.businesslogic.module' property
    connect.businesslogic.module=<existing entries>,draftdetection
    2) Restart the server To run the new module in report mode,
    hit the following URL in the browser:
    http://[HOST]:[PORT]/wps/wcm/connect/?MOD=draftdetection&library
    =[LIBRARY]
    To run the new module in remove mode, hit the following URL in
    the browser:
    http://[HOST]:[PORT]/wps/wcm/connect/?MOD=draftdetection&library
    =[LIBRARY]&remove=true
    
    PK88848 (TASK REQUIRED TO RESET THE EVENT LOG DATABASE WHILE THE
    SYSTEM IS RUNNING.)
    
    This fix provides a module to reset the event log database while
    the system is running. The module is enabled by performing the
    following in the WCMConfigServices.properties file:
    
    1) Add 'reseteventlog
    ' to end of the 'connect.businesslogic.module' property.
    
    2) Adding the following lines:
    
    connect.businesslogic.module.reseteventlog.class=com.ibm.workpla
    ce.wcm.services.eventlog.ResetEventLogModule
    connect.businesslogic.module.reseteventlog.remoteaccess=true
    connect.businesslogic.module.reseteventlog.autoload=false
    
    3) Restart the server
    
    The module can then be accessed by entering the following in
    your browser's address bar:
    
    http://[HOST]:[PORT]/wps/wcm/myconnect?MOD=reseteventlog&library
    =[NAME OF LIBRARY TO RESET]
    
    To start the reset task append &fix=true to the above URL.
    
    This module will take a short time to run and respond to the
    browser. A background task started by the module will continue
    to run on the server after the module has responded and can take
    up to several hours or days to complete. Any items modified
    between the last successful syndication and the time you get a
    response from this module in your browser will not be syndicated
    until the background task has completed. To avoid this
    limitation you should follow these steps:
    
    1. Stop all authoring activity on the server
    2. Run a syndication update to ensure the subscriber is up to
    date with all the current items in the event log
    3. Run this module in fix mode
    4. Wait for the module to respond to the browser (this should
    only take a few minutes)
    5. Continue authoring
    6. The background task will populate the event log with all
    historical entries
    7. Any authoring activity will add new entries
    8. Syndication updates will continue to send any new entries
    added to the event log
    9. When the background task is complete you can perform a
    syndication full rebuild to check all historical entries
    
    To see the status of the background task, run this module again
    IN REPORT MODE.
    
    Un-Installation Steps:
    
    NOTE: FIXES MUST BE REMOVED IN THE ORDER THEY WERE APPLIED.
          DO NOT REMOVE A FIX UNLESS ALL FIXES APPLIED AFTER IT HAVE
    FIRST BEEN REMOVED.
          YOU MAY REAPPLY ANY REMOVED FIX.
    
    - Shutdown WebSphere Portal.
    - Follow the instructions that are packaged with the Portal
    Update Installer on how to uninstall a fix.
    - Restart WebSphere Portal.
    - Backup any files (e.g. custom JSPs) which have been copied to
    the deployed WCM EAR or portlet WAR directories
    - Run [WPS_ROOT]\config\WPSconfig.bat|sh update-wcm
    -DPortalAdminPwd=password
    - Update the deployed remote rendering portlet:
       - Backup any files (e.g. custom JSPs) which have been copied
    to the deployed remote rendering portlet WAR directory
       - Log in to Portal as the Portal Administrator
       - Navigate to: Administration / Portlet Management / Web
    Modules
       - Find and select the remote rendering portlet web module
       - Click the Update Portlet Icon to the right of the selected
    portlet
       - Select the updated portlet WAR file located in:
    [PortalServer]\installableApps
       - Click Next and Finish
    - Log out of Portal for the changes to take effect.
    
    
    Refer to the clustering section of the Portal Information Center
    (typically 'Clustering -> Performing Upgrades in a 24x7
    cluster') for additional information on uninstalling interim
    fixes in clustered environments while maintaining continuous
    availability of your Portal.
    
    DISCLAIMER:
    
    This fix has received limited testing only and has not undergone
    IBM's complete quality assurance process. It is therefore
    recommended that it be tested in a testing environment before
    applying it to a working (authoring, production/live) system.
    You should always backup your data before installing a fix or
    fixpack.
