Server instances are not created during an upgrade

When a connection cannot be established, the installer cannot recreate your IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager server instances. You must manually recreate your server instances.

About this task

The installation wizard uses the following methods to establish a connection to the system to recreate the server instances: When you use one of these methods on the default port, the port cannot be blocked by a firewall. If it is blocked, complete the following steps to manually upgrade the server instance.

Procedure

  1. Close the installation wizard.
  2. Complete the following steps for each Tivoli Storage Manager server instance:
    1. After the upgrade finishes, issue the following command to recreate the instance: 
      /opt/tivoli/tsm/db2/instance/db2icrt –u instance_user instance_name
    2. Recreate the variables in the instance file. Issue the db2set -i command for each variable in the instance file. For example, set the variable DB2COMM to be only TCPIP for instance MYINST:
      /opt/tivoli/tsm/db2/instance/db2set –i MYINST DB2COMM=TCPIP
      To display a list of all defined variables specify the -all parameter, for example db2set -all.
    3. Issue the db2stop command to stop the database instance.
    4. Use the user ID that owns the server instance to issue the db2start command to start the database instance.
    5. Catalog and upgrade each database by issuing the following commands: 
      db2 catalog db TSMDB1 on "database_path"
db2 upgrade db TSMDB1
    6. Issue the db2stop command.
    7. Start the Tivoli Storage Manager server.
