Updating the master domain manager and its backup

Complete this procedure to apply the latest fix pack to your General Availability version 9.5 or 9.5.0.x components.

About this task

Update a master domain manager and a backup master domain manager at the latest fix pack level by running the serverinst script. Launch the script on the workstation where the master domain manager is running to update the master domain manager, then launch the script on the workstation where the backup master domain manager is running to update the backup master domain manager.

Procedure

  1. Log in as root or Administrator to the workstation where you plan to install.
  2. Download the installation images from Flexnet.
  3. Browse to the folder image_location>/TWS/interp_name.
  4. To update the database version, run the following command:
    On Windows operating systems
    cscript configureDb.vbs --rdbmstype db_type --dbhostname db_hostname --dbport db_port --dbname db_name --dbuser db_user --dbpassword db_password --dbadminuser db_administrator --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
    On UNIX operating systems
    ./configureDb.sh --rdbmstype db_type --dbhostname db_hostname --dbport db_port --dbname db_name --dbuser db_user --dbpassword db_password --dbadminuser db_administrator --dbadminuserpw db_administrator_password
  5. Start the installation launching the following command:
    On Windows operating systems
    cscript serverinst.vbs --acceptlicense yes --inst_dir INST_DIR
    On UNIX operating systems
    ./serverinst.sh --acceptlicense yes --inst_dir INST_DIR

    where INST_DIR is the directory where HCL Workload Automation is installed. To find out the installation directory, see Finding out what has been installed in which HCL Workload Automation instances.

    Note: The acceptlicense and inst_dir parameters are required. All other parameters are ignored by the serverinst command, except for the following two optional parameters: lang and skipcheckprereq.

    For further details about commands, see Reference.

  6. To align the database tables, run the following command: 
    planman resync
    Note: Before running the "planman resync" command, check to see if batchman process is up and running. If batchman is down, then run the "conman start" command. If batchman is down, then planman resync remains in hang status.
  7. To link all fault-tolerant agents, type the following command: 
    conman "link @!/@/@ "

Results

To verify that the installation completed successfully, browse to the directory where you installed the master domain manager and type the following commands:
. ./tws_env.sh 
optman ls

This command lists the HCL Workload Automation configurations settings and confirms that HCL Workload Automation installed correctly.

What to do next

Proceed to completing the security configuration.
