The CR1 instructions for updating FileNet® are provided in this section as a
convenience if you are still in the process of applying CR1 and are
not planning to apply CR2 right away. Skip these procedures if you
have already applied CR2 or have an existing FileNet deployment that
was installed independently of IBM Connections.
Before you begin
Make sure the Connections 5.0 CR1 update is installed before
attempting to upgrade the CE server, CE client, and FNCS.
Procedure
- Make sure Connections is running before running these upgrade
scripts.
- Navigate to the folder where IBM® Content
Engine and IBM Content Engine
Client have been downloaded. For example, for CE IF003, the folder
should contain the following items:
- Windows: 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-WIN-IF003.EXE
and 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-WIN-IF003.EXE
- AIX®: 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-AIX-IF003.BIN
and 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-AIX-IF003.BIN
- Linux: 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-LINUX-IF003.BIN
and 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-LINUX-IF003.BIN
- zLinux: 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-zLINUX-IF003.BIN and 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-zLINUX-IF003.BIN
- For Linux and AIX only, assign permission to /opt/IBM/Connections/ccm/ccm/ccm as
follows:
run chmod -R 777 * under the folder /opt/IBM/Connections/ccm/ccm/ccm
- Back up your current Connections Content Manager deployment
as follows (if you haven't run the backup already):
- Make sure that the Deployment Manager is running.
- Navigate to the connections_root/opt/IBM/Connections/ccm/ccm/ccm/scripts folder
to run the backup script appropriate to your operating system:
- For Windows use the backup.bat
[-param value] ... [-paramN valueN] script with the following
parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere® Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
For example:backup.bat -was.dm.path "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgr01" -was.admin.user wasadmin -was.admin.password passw0rd
- For AIX or Linux use the ./backup.sh [-param=value]
... [-paramN=valueN] script with the following parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
For example:./backup.sh -was.dm.path=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01 -was.admin.user=wasadmin -was.admin.password=passw0rd
- Run the upgrade CE script as follows:
- Make sure you have at least 6 GB in %TEMP% (Windows) or /tmp (Linux) disk.
- Navigate to the connections_root/opt/IBM/Connections/ccm/ccm/ccm/scripts folder
to run the update scripts for CE FP/IF:
- For Windows, use the update-ce.bat script
with the following parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
- ce.fp.installer.location is the location of
CE Fix pack installer.
For example:
update-ce.bat -was.dm.path "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgr01" -was.admin.user wasadmin -was.admin.password passw0rd -ce.fp.installer.location C:\ce-fp\installer\5.2.0.3-P8CPE-WIN-IF003.EXE
Note: If your DM path contains spaces, add quotation marks
to the path.
- For AIX or Linux, use the ./update-ce.sh script
with the following parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
- ce.fp.installer.location is the location of
CE Fix pack installer.
For example:
./update-ce.sh -was.dm.path=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01 -was.admin.user=wasadmin -was.admin.password=passw0rd -ce.fp.installer.location=/opt/build/5.2.0.3-P8CPE-LINUX-IF003.BIN
Note: If you don't append these parameters, you will be
prompted for them while the update script runs.
Note: After using
update-ce.bat or
./update-ce.sh to
update to CE IF003, you also need to update the
waltz.jar and
sonata.jar files
as described in this
tech note.
After you run the first update, the filenetengine application
is redeployed. Remap the application to your web server as described
in Mapping applications to IBM HTTP
Server.
- Make sure Connections is running (it will be marked as
stopped after the update) and the filenetengine application
is started before running the next upgrade command.
- Run the upgrade script as follows:
- Make sure that the FileNetEngine server's status is enabled (Status
shows green checkmark) via the WebSphere Application
Server administrative console: .
- Navigate to the connections_root/opt/IBM/Connections/ccm/ccm/ccm/scripts folder
to run the update scripts for CE Client Fix pack:
- For Windows, use the update-fncs-ceclient.bat script
with the following parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
- ceclient.fp.installer.location is the location
of CE Client Fix pack installer.
- doInstallFNCS Set to y if
installing FNCS or n if not installing FNCS.
- doInstallCEClient Set to y if
installing CE Client or n if not installing
the CE Client.
For example:
update-fncs-ceclient.bat -was.dm.path "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgr01" -was.admin.user wasadmin -was.admin.password passw0rd -doInstallFNCS n -ceclient.fp.installer.location C:\fncs-fp\installer\ 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-WIN-IF003.EXE -doInstallCEClient y
Note: If
you don't append these parameters, you will be prompted for them while
the update script runs.
- For AIX or Linux, use the ./update-fncs-ceclient.sh script
with the following parameters:
- was.dm.path is the path of WebSphere Application Server Deployment
Manager.
- was.admin.user is the username of WebSphere Application Server administrator.
- was.admin.password is the WebSphere Application Server administrator
password.
- ceclient.fp.installer.location is the location
of CE Client Fix pack installer.
- doInstallFNCS Set to y if
installing FNCS or n if not installing FNCS.
- doInstallCEClient Set to y if
installing CE Client or n if not installing
the CE Client.
For example:
./update-fncs-ceclient.sh -was.dm.path=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01 -was.admin.user=wasadmin -was.admin.password=passw0rd -doInstallFNCS=n -ceclient.fp.installer.location=/opt/build/ 5.2.0.3-P8CPE-CLIENT-LINUX-IF003.BIN -doInstallCEClient=y
Note: If you don't append these parameters, you will be
prompted for them while the update script runs.
- After the update process completes successfully, restart
the cluster that the FileNet application, FileNetEngine,
is hosted on in order to use it.
Results
When updating an already installed Connections Content Manager,
run the ccmUpdate.bat|sh command in the ccmDomainTool
package to update the User Token Cache and Subject
Cache values to 3600 as follows: - Make sure the cluster and Connections Content Manager are running
before running the ccmUpdate task.
- Run the command as follows:
