Pre-Upgrade Tasks

Before you upgrade Monitoring Console, perform the tasks described below.

• Verify Current Version Information

• Upgrade Monitoring Console Dependencies

• Backing Up Monitoring Console Data

Verify Current Version Information

Verify the current version of Monitoring Console before you upgrade.

To Verify Current Version Information

1. Open the Monitoring Console URL in a web browser:

   https:MonitoringConsole_Host:6789

2. Log in as the Administrator.

3. Click the Sun Java System Monitoring Console link.

4. Click the Version button.

5. The Monitoring Console version information is displayed.

   Release 5U1

   Monitoring Console 1.0 u1

   Release 5

   Monitoring Console 1.0

Upgrade Monitoring Console Dependencies

It is generally recommended that all Java ES components on a computer system (and in a computing environment) be upgraded to Release 5U1. Release 5U1 Monitoring Console has hard upgrade dependencies on MFWK and SJWC shared components, which therefore need to be upgraded before upgrading Monitoring Console. Monitoring Console also requires that Windows Installer patch (126910–02) is already applied.

Backing Up Monitoring Console Data

Upgrade of Monitoring Console to Release 5U1 does not require the reconfiguration of Monitoring Console software. Therefore backup of Monitoring Console data is optional.
