Known issues

There are no known issues.

Known limitations

The silent config example file (silent_config.txt) is the default example file shipped with ITCAM for Transactions v7.4.0.1, hence it contains examples for the CICSTX and MQ Data Collectors. These collectors are not shipped with this MDV.

Installation information

Prior to installation

Check and be aware of all releases of ITCAM for Transactions:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Composite%20Application%20Manager/page/ITCAM%20for%20Transactions

This MDV (FP2) contains a regular ITM upgrade package, and utilizes the standard ITM installation methods; including silent install and remote deploy. However, Fixpack 2's APAR only impacted two agents, and only those are included. The agents are:

  • Transaction Reporter (TO)
  • Transaction Collector (TU)
Review 7.4 FP1 Knowledge Center - Installing Transaction Tracking on the methods and procedures used to install ITM packages.

Installing

On machines where you have Transaction Collector (TU) or Transaction Reporter (TO) agents installed, follow the following instructions:
7.4 FP1 Knowledge Center - Upgrading your Transaction Tracking installation On machines where you have WAS-TT Data Collectors installed, follow the following instructions (for the WAS-TT DC only): WAS-TT DC Installation instructions

On Windows systems, extract the files from the archive and double-click WINDOWS\setup.exe. Follow the prompts to install the update.

On UNIX systems, extract the installer from the archive using the tar -xvf <filename.tar> command. Then, execute the installer using the ./install.sh command. Follow the prompts to install the update.

Installing application support for TEPS/TEMS
For each monitoring agent installed, you must install agent-specific application support on IBM Tivoli Monitoring components. You can choose to install application support on all components at one time, or you can install the application support on components separately. If installing components separately, the following order is recommended:

  1. Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server
  2. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server
  3. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Desktop Client
  4. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server Browser client (for Linux and UNIX Only)
The procedure for installing agent-specific application support on the components is similar to installing the monitoring agent. The main difference is to select the application support components required.

It is strongly recommended that all TT components, agents and support, be brought up to the same revision level as soon as is practical.
Note: When installing application support any ITM components on the current machine is automatically stopped, including any TEMS or TEPS. Follow the Starting and stopping servers and agents guide to manually stop ITM agents and infrastructure. You should warn other users before beginning the installation.

Performing the necessary tasks after installation

A successful installation modifies the ITCAM for TT version to 7.4.0.2 IF0011. Ensure that the Version of Transaction Reporter and Transaction Collector in the MTEMS is '07.40.02'.

Cinfo/MTEMS will report the following agent version:
07.40.02.11

On Windows the installation logs are written to the following directory:
ITM_HOME\InstallITM\

On Unix the installation logs are written to the following directory:
ITM_HOME/logs/

Uninstalling if necessary

This maintenance package cannot be rolled back.

On Windows, the product can be removed using the Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs.

On UNIX, the product may be removed using the script:
ITM_HOME/bin/uninstall.sh

For detailed instructions, please refer to the ITCAM for Transactions v7.4.0.1 Installation and Configuration Guide, available here:
