Content Platform Engine, Version 5.2.1              

Verifying the successful upgrade of workflow systems

Verify that all workflow systems were successfully upgraded.

About this task

After running peupgrade, access the ping page to verify that all isolated regions have been successfully upgraded.

Procedure

  1. Browse to the Process services ping page:

    http://server:port/peengine/IOR/ping

    where:

    server is the host name of the machine where Content Platform Engine is deployed.

    port is the HTTP port used by the application server where Content Platform Engine is deployed.

    High availabilityIn a highly available environment, use the load balanced virtual name for the server:port. For example: http://virtual_server/peengine/IOR/ping

    The following table lists an example address for your application server:

    Table 1. Example Process services ping page for your application server
    Application Server Type Web Page Address
    IBM® WebSphere® Application Server http://myserver:9080/peengine/IOR/ping
    Oracle WebLogic Server http://myserver:7001/peengine/IOR/ping
    JBoss Application Server http://myserver:8080/peengine/IOR/ping
  2. When prompted to log on, enter the pe_upgrade_user and password.
    Important: If you are upgrading from version 5.2.0, then before the workflow system database is in Ready state, the ping page will display a status indicating that the server is initializing.
  3. Review the database connection, data sources, and schema name information that is presented for each workflow system or Case Analyzer data store.
    • Verify that the isolated regions (as indicated by the ServerDBContext lines in the Database section of the ping page) are all in Ready state.
    • Verify that the Case Analyzer data stores (as indicated by the CADataStore lines in the Database section of the ping page) are all in Ready state.
  4. If you are upgrading a FileNet® P8 system from a pre-5.2.0 release that has one or more Process Engine isolated region databases in DB2® for z/OS®, shut down (via WebSphere administration console) the Content Platform Engine server instances and restart them. This extra restart step is necessary only for DB2 for z/OS-based upgrades, and only if you upgraded Process Engine isolated regions.
