3 Upgrading the Oracle WebCenter Interaction Components

This chapter describes how to run the installer to upgrade the Oracle WebCenter Interaction components.

Before completing these steps you must complete the tasks described in Chapter 2, "Prerequisites."

Before Running the Installer

You must complete the following steps before using the installer to upgrade the Oracle WebCenter Interaction components:

  1. If you have multiple search nodes in a search cluster, purge the contents of your search cluster using the cadmin tool.

    Note:

    All nodes in the cluster must be running to purge cluster contents.

    1. Log in to any of the computers hosting a cluster node.

    2. Change to the directory containing the cluster administration utility.

      The directory is install_dir/ptsearchserver/10.3.3/bin

    3. Execute cadmin purge --remove

  2. Shut down your search node(s):

    install_dir/ptsearchserver/10.3.3/bin/searchserverd.sh stop
    

    Note:

    This must be done on each computer that hosts a search node.

  3. Shut down your application server.

Running the Installer

Perform the following steps to run the installer:

  1. Log in to the host as the ALI user.

  2. Close all programs.

  3. Launch the Oracle WebCenter Interaction installer.

    The installer file is named WebCenterInteraction_10.3.3.0.0. The Oracle WebCenter Interaction installer is a graphical, X-Windows client when run in interactive mode. If you run the installer on a remote terminal, make sure your DISPLAY is set appropriately.

  4. Complete the installer wizard pages.

    Wizard Page Description

    Introduction

    This installer wizard page provides a brief description of the installer and describes how to run the installer in silent mode.

    Installation Folder

    Accept the default installation folder or select a different folder in which to install Oracle WebCenter Interaction.

    Default: /opt/oracle/middleware/wci

    Choose Components

    Select either Complete or Custom. If you select Complete, a full set of Oracle WebCenter Interaction components is installed. If you select Custom, you can select individual portal components to install according to your deployment plan.

    Configuration Manager - Port and Password

    Enter the port and password for the Configuration Manager Web tool. The Configuration Manager will be used to complete the installation of Oracle WebCenter Interaction.

    Standalone or Cluster

    Select whether you would like to install a Single Standalone Search Node or add a Search Cluster Node. Selecting to install the standalone search node installs a single node on the local computer. If you want to support failover, add search cluster nodes.

    Adding New Search Node

    Enter the name and port number of the new search node.

    The search node is installed into install_dir/ptsearchserver/10.3.3.

    Search Cluster Files

    If you chose to install a search cluster node, select the location of the search cluster files. You must have permission to access and write to the location where you want to install these files.

    Example: install_dir/ptsearchserver/10.3.3/cluster

    Launch the Configuration Manager.

    The Configuration Manager is located at:

    https://host:port

    Where host is the host you are installing on and port is the port you specified.

    Log in to the Configuration Manager using the user name administrator and the password you specified on the Configuration Manager – Port and Password page.

    The Configuration Manager displays a list of all recently installed components. Clicking the link next to each component leads you through the settings you must configure to complete the installation. For information on the settings in the Configuration Manager, refer to the Configuration Manager online help or to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter Interaction.

    When you have completed all Configuration Manager tasks, return to the installer.

    Note: The Oracle WebCenter Interaction installer launches additional installers depending on the components you chose to install. You might be prompted by one of the additional component installers to restart your computer before the Oracle WebCenter Interaction installer is finished. If you are prompted to restart your computer while another installer is running, select the option to manually restart your computer later. Then, if you are not prompted to restart your computer after the final installer is finished, restart your computer manually.
