Before you begin

About this task

The process of migrating Virtual Enterprise and Compute Grid from Version 6.1.0.5 to Version 6.1.1 while maintaining the same version of WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment is known as an upgrade.

Procedure

  1. Mount the new product HFS for Version 6.1.1 in the /usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1 directory.
  2. Optional: Unaugment WebSphere eXtreme Scale Version 6.1.0.x from your current cell if the product already exists in your environment.
    1. Run the manageprofiles command from the WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager/bin directory:
      ./manageprofiles.sh -unaugment -profileName default -templatePath 
      WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager/profileTemplates/wxddg_augment -ignoreStack
    2. Start the deployment manager.
    3. Synchronize each node. Run the syncNode command from the WAS_install_root/AppServer/bin directory:
      ./syncNode.sh dmgrSystem dmgrPport -conntype soap -username user_name -password user_password
    4. Stop the deployment manager.
  3. Optional: Remove the eXtreme Scale links and directories from your current cell if the product already exists in your environment.
    1. Run the removeOG610 command from the WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager/bin directory:
      ./removeOG610.sh /usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1 /WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager 
      user_name user_password
    2. Start the deployment manager.
    3. Run the removeOG610 command from the WAS_install_root/AppServer/bin directory for each application server node:
      ./removeOG610.sh /usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1 /WAS_install_root/AppServer 
      user_name user_password
    4. Stop the deployment manager.
  4. Link Virtual Enterprise and Compute Grid and upgrade the products to Version 6.1.1.
    1. Run the upgradeVECG611 command from the WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager/bin directory:
      ./upgradeVECG611.sh /usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1 /WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager 
      user_name user_password 
    2. Start the deployment manager.
    3. Run the upgradeVECG611 command from the WAS_install_root/AppServer/bin directory for each application server node:
      ./upgradeVECG611.sh /usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1 /WAS_install_root/AppServer 
      user_name user_password 
    4. Stop the deployment manager.
  5. Optional: Enable JAVA2 security access to your new Version 6.1.1 file system if you have JAVA2 security set or you plan to set security later.
    1. Edit the server.policy file. You can use the policytool in the WAS_HOME/java/jre/bin directory to edit the policy file, or you can manually edit the policy file. If you choose to manually edit the file, set permissions for the deployment manager and all of the application server nodes.
      To set permissions for the deployment manager, add the following two lines to the server.policy file in the /WAS_install_root/DeploymentManager/profiles/default/properties directory:
      grant codeBase "file:/usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1/lib/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; };
      grant codeBase "file:/usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; };
      To set permissions for each application server node, add the following two lines to the server.policy file in the /WAS_install_root/AppServer/profiles/default/properties directory:
      grant codeBase "file:/usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1/lib/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; };
      grant codeBase "file:/usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R1M1/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; };
  6. Start your new Version 6.1.1 cell.
