Installing and Uninstalling CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3.1
This section describes how to install and uninstall CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3.1.
Note
Before installing Patch 3.1, CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3 must be installed.
For CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3.1, there is one new limitation. If the non-UNIX user account feature is enabled, the svplus user will not be able to change his or her password through the GUI.
In this section, see these subsections:

Table 3 lists the contents of Patch 3.1.
Table 3 CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3.1 Contents
Component FileCWM
15.3.00-P3.1_CWM.tar.gz
SNMP Agent
15.3.00-P3.1_SNMPAgent.tar.gz
SSM
15.3.00-P3.1_SSM.tar.gz
Backing Up the CWM Server Database
Use this procedure to back up the existing database to prepare for installing the patch. You should back up the database in case a problem exists with Informix.
Step 1
Log in as svplus:
hostname# su -u svplusThe system prompts you for the svplus password.
Step 2
If they are not stopped already, stop the core processes.
Step 3
Perform a coldstart (drops all network data so you will export only the user data in each database):
# coldstartStep 4
Stop the "Guard" process by executing the script /usr/users/svplus/scripts/cleanGD.
Step 5
Stop the "AuditLogger" process by executing the script /usr/users/svplus/scripts/cleanAL.
Step 6
Create a /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory, as shown in the following example. (Please ensure that this directory is at least 2 GB.)
mkdir /usr/users/svplus/dbexportsStep 7
Go to this /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory, as shown below:
cd /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexportsStep 8
Copy the /usr/users/svplus/etc/svplus.version into the /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory, as shown below:
cp /usr/users/svplus/etc/svplus.version /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports/svplus.versionStep 9
Export the stratacom, statsdb, and scmdb databases. Save a copy of the dbexport.out file if necessary. (To copy dbexport.out, you need to log in as "root.")
•
dbexport stratacom (stratacom.exp directory is created in the /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory. Save a copy of the dbexport.out file if necessary.)
•
dbexport statsdb (statsdb.exp directory is created in the /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory. Save a copy of the dbexport.out file if necessary.)
•
dbexport scmdb (scmdb.exp directory is created in the /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory. Save a copy of the dbexport.out file if necessary.)
Step 10
Capture the output of the onstat -d command and save it to the /usr/users/svplus/<dbexport-location>/onstat.out file for future reference, as shown in the following example:
onstat -d > /usr/users/svplus/dbexports153_1/onstat.outwhere,
<dbexport-location> = dbexports153_1
Step 11
Archive the /usr/users/svplus/tmp/dbexports directory, as shown in the following example:
cd /usr/users/svplus/tmp tar cvf /tmp/<server name>.tar dbexports/*Step 12
Use the FTP facility to copy this tar file to another system for safekeeping.
Installing the CWM Server Patch
Use this procedure to install the CWM Server patch.
Before you begin, verify that CWM 15.3.00, Patch 3 has been installed.
Note
WANDEST is not being updated and is not included in this patch.
Step 1
Stop statistics collection.
Step 2
Log in to the CWM server as user root:
# suStep 3
Stop the core.
Step 4
Download or copy the compressed tar files for the CWM server to a temporary location, such as /tmp:
# cp 15.3.00-P3.1_CWM.tar.gz /tmpStep 5
Change to local directory that contains the compressed tar files:
# cd /tmpStep 6
Remove the disk1 directory if it exists:
# rm -rf disk1Step 7
Unzip the compressed tar files and untar them:
# gunzip 15.3.00-P3.1_CWM.tar.gz# tar xvfp 15.3.00-P3.1_CWM.tarStep 8
Execute the InstallCWM153Patch3.1.csh script:
# ./InstallCWM153Patch3.1.cshStep 9
Designate if you want to use install the patch using the InstallShield GUI or the console mode and continue the installation.
Step 10
Exit from root.
Restoring the Saved Database
If Informix did not come back online after restarting the CWM, use this procedure to restore the database that you saved before you installed the patch.
(The output of the onstat -d command is located in the /usr/users/svplus/<dbexport-location>/onstat.out file; for example, /usr/users/svplus/dbexports153_1/onstat.out.)
Step 1
Log in to the workstation as root:
# suStep 2
Go to the /usr/users/informix94/etc directory:
# cd /usr/users/informix94/etcStep 3
Follow these steps only if you have configured a separate raw partition for the Informix physical log:
a.
Open the onconfig file for editing:
# vi onconfigb.
Change the PHYSDBS <phydbs> line to the following:
PHYSDBS rootdbsc.
Change the PHYSFILE <size> line to the following:
PHYSFILE 20000d.
Save the onconfig file and exit the editor.
Step 4
Go the /usr/users/svplus/scripts/Install directory:
# cd /usr/users/svplus/scripts/InstallStep 5
Run these commands in the order shown below:
# ./dbmode# ./dbinit# ./dbonmode# ./dbonspaceStep 6
If you have the file AddPhyLog in /usr/users/svplus/scripts/Install, do these steps:
# ./AddPhyLog# ./RestartInfStep 7
If you have the file dbaddchunk in /usr/users/svplus/scripts/Install, do these steps:
# ./dbaddchunkStep 8
Exit from root.
Step 9
Check if you have configured a separate partition for datadbs using the onstat -d command:
# onstat -dStep 10
If a separate partition exists, execute these commands to import the database. If no separate partition exists for datadbs, go to Step 11:
# dbimport stratacom -d datadbs -i <dbexport-location># dbimport statsdb -d datadbs -i <dbexport-location># dbimport scmdb -d datadbs -i <dbexport-location>Step 11
If no separate partition exists for datadbs, use these commands to import the stratacom, statsdb, and scmdb databases:
# dbimport stratacom -i <dbexport-location># dbimport statsdb -i <dbexport-location># dbimport scmdb -i <dbexport-location>
Installing the SNMP Agent Patch
Use this procedure to install the CWM SNMPAgent (ServiceAgent) patch.
Step 1
Log in to the CWM server as user root:
# suStep 2
Stop the core.
Step 3
Download or copy the compressed tar file for ServiceAgent to the local directory, such as /tmp:
# cp 15.3.00-P3.1_SNMPAgent.tar.gz /tmpStep 4
Change to local directory that contains the compressed tar files:
# cd /tmpStep 5
Remove the disk1 directory if it exists:
# rm -rf disk1Step 6
Unzip the compressed tar file and untar it:
# gunzip 15.3.00-P3.1_SNMPAgent.tar.gz# tar xvfp 15.3.00-P3.1_SNMPAgent.tarStep 7
Execute the installation patch script:
# ./InstallAgent153Patch3.1.cshStep 8
Designate if you want to install the patch using the InstallShield GUI or the console mode and continue with the installation.
Step 9
When you have finished installing the SNMP Agent Patch software, exit from root.
Installing the SSM Patch
Use this procedure to install the SSM Patch only if you are using the SSM machine. The patch must be installed on a SSM machine.
Step 1
Stop stats collection and disable stats on VXSM.
Step 2
Log in to the SSM machine as user root:
# suStep 3
Download or copy the compressed tar file to the local directory, such as /tmp:
# cp 15.3.00-P3.1_SSM.tar.gz /tmpStep 4
Change to local directory that contains the compressed tar files:
# cd /tmpStep 5
Remove the disk1 directory if it exists:
# rm -rf disk1Step 6
Unzip the compressed tar file and untar it:
# gunzip 15.3.00-P3.1_SSM.tar.gz# tar xvfp 15.3.00-P3.1_SSM.tarStep 7
Execute the InstallSSM153Patch3.1.csh script:
# ./InstallSSM153Patch3.1.cshStep 8
Exit from root.
Uninstalling Patch 3.1
As part of the patch installation, a CWM uninstall script is installed in the /usr/users/svplus directory.
When you access the uninstall using the wizard, you are asked for the backup file location that you provided when you installed Patch 3.1 initially.
