Stopping and backing up Process Engine version 5.0 before upgrading

If you are upgrading FileNet® P8 from version 5.0 or 5.1, stop all Process Engine and related software and do a backup before doing the upgrade.

To stop the Process Engine software:

1. Log on as the pe_install_user. If that user is not a member of the local Administrators group log on as a member of that group instead.
2. Stop all the following components that are running. For procedures and further details, see Starting and stopping IBM FileNet P8 components (in the version 5.0 documentation) or Starting and stopping IBM FileNet P8 components (in the version 5.1 documentation).
   Remember: If you are upgrading in a server farm environment, stop all of the following components on all the server nodes in the farm.

   Component	Server
   Process Simulator	Process Simulator
   Case Analyzer	Case Analyzer
   Component Manager	Application Engine
   Application Engine	Application Engine
   Process Service	Process Engine
   Process Task Manager	Process Engine or Application Engine
   IBM Case Manager	IBM Case Manager

3. (AIX® only) Run the following command:

   slibclean

4. Back up the Process Engine database. For procedures and further details, see Backing up and restoring IBM FileNet P8 components (in the version 5.0 documentation) or Backing up and restoring IBM FileNet P8 components (in the version 5.1 documentation).
5. (IBM Case Manager environments only) If your isolated regions and the Content Platform Engine target object store are not stored in the same database and schema, move your isolated regions to the database and schema that is associated with the target object store. See Moving workflow system or Process Engine isolated regions for instructions.
