Installing the MWTM 6.1.1 Patch on Linux

Installing the MWTM server requires the following actions, in this order.

1. Preliminary Activities

2. Starting the Patch Upgrade Tool

3. Concluding Server Installation

Preliminary Activities

Complete these preliminary steps:

Note These steps include logging in as the root user. As the root user, you can adversely affect your operating environment if you are unaware of the effects of the commands you use. If you are a relatively inexperienced UNIX user, limit your activities as the root user to the tasks described in this guide.

Step 1 Obtain the MWTM 6.1.1 Patch zip file from cisco.com

Step 2 If you have not already logged in, log in as the root user:

> login: root

> Password: root-password 

If you are already logged in, but not as the root user, use the su command to change your login to root:

# su

# Password: root-password

Step 3 Make a directory to unzip the MWTM 6.1.1 patch file to and change to this directory.

Note Do not use the /tmp directory for this temporary unzip location. Using the /tmp directory can cause unexpected results.

# mkdir /mwtmpatch

# cd /mwtmpatch

Step 4 While in this directory (or in any location with enough free disk space of 400 MB to hold the patch) unzip the MWTM 6.1.1 patch file

# unzip mwtm611-linux-patch-k9.zip

Starting the Patch Upgrade Tool

Step 1 Start the upgrade tool by entering the following command:

# ./setup.sh

At this point the upgrade process validates that the correct upgrade path is being followed. If the upgrade path is not correct you may see the following message and the upgrade process will exit.

             MWTM Version 6.1 Installation Not Detected

     An existing installation of MWTM Version 6.1 is required.

Step 2 The upgrade tool checks the server and client images, then displays the installation menu:

1) Review README File First (Recommended)

2) Upgrade All Installed Components to 6.1.1

4) Exit Setup

Please choose an option -> 2

Choose one of the following upgrade options:

•To read the latest information about the MWTM in the README file, enter 1, then press Enter.

The README file contains late-breaking information about the MWTM that might not be found in the other product documentation.

•To upgrade both the MWTM server and client, enter 2, then press Enter.

The server component is upgraded first and then the client component. For servers where only one component is installed only that component is upgraded.

•To exit the upgrade tool, enter 3, then press Enter.

If you selected option 2, the upgrade tool displays information similar to the following:

***************************************************************

 Upgrading MWTM Server and MWTM Client to Version 6.1.1

***************************************************************

 Press Return to continue ->

Press Enter.

The upgrade tool then performs the upgrade on the server and then the client components. After the upgrade process is complete the following message is displayed:

Press Return to Continue to MWTM Startup Options ->

Press Enter
