Upgrading a Standalone Manager

This topic describes how to upgrade the Manager software on a BMC Database Automation (BDA) environment with a single Manager.

Before you begin

You must have previously performed the steps in Preparing for upgrade.

 To upgrade a Standalone Manager

1. Navigate to the directory in which you downloaded the service pack or patch and use the tar command to extract the media:
   tar xvzf <media>.
2. Verify that the following dependent services are running using the service command:
   <service name> status
   
   • postgresql

   • dmanager

   • mtd

   • httpd

3. Export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/app/clarity/lib. 

4. Run the following commands:
service mtd stop
service dmanager stop
rm /app/clarity/lib/libgcc_s.so.1

5. Run the following script as root:
   ./update.sh

   This script upgrades the existing Manager RPMs and completes the Manager upgrade.
   The new version of BDA is displayed in the BDA Version section of the Configuration > System Information page in the GUI.
