Pre-upgrade Tasks/Data Migration

Before you begin the upgrade, keep the HADB history files, management agent configuration files, log files and repository, and all the data devices outside the installation path. Use the following procedure to move the management repository and configuration files:

1. Stop all the old management agents and keep the HADB nodes running.

2. On each host, move the repository directory to the new location.

3. On each host, copy the dbconfig directory to the new location.

4. On each host, update the mgt.cfg file, and set the correct path for dbconfig and repository directory.

5. Start the management agents using the updated mgt.cfg file.

   Note –

   On Linux, uninstall HADB 4.4.1-6 before upgrading the Japanese version of Application Server Enterprise Edition 7 2004Q2 Update 2 to Application Server Enterprise Edition 7 2004Q2 Update 7.

   The HADB version bundled with Application Server Enterprise Edition 7 2004Q2 Update 7 is 4.4.1-7.

   Uninstalling HADB 4.4.1-6 after performing an in-place upgrade to 4.4.1-7 might not remove all RPMs, specially sun-hadb-i-4.4.1-6.

   To remove sun-hadb-i-4.4.1-6, run the following command:

   rpm -e --nodeps sun-hadb-i-4.4.1-6
