Preparing to apply feature packs or fix packs on the Presentation Server

• If you have custom security certificates for the internal communication between the Presentation Server and App Visibility Manager, ensure that your files are not overwritten by the upgrade process. See instructions "To replace security files for communication with the Presentation Server" in the Changing security certificates in App Visibility components topic.

• Ensure to close all the files and folders opened in the current session as well as close other user sessions on the server before applying feature packs or fix packs.

• Ensure that the environment variable TRUESIGHTPSERVER_HOME is set to the Presentation Server installation folder.

• Manually stop any components that are directly connected to the Presentation Server (for example, Infrastructure Management, App Visibility Manager components). 

• Ensure that the Presentation Server is running before applying feature packs or fix packs. If the Presentation Server is not running, start it by running the following command:

  (Windows) tssh server start
(Linux) ./tssh server start


  Note

  Run the tssh server status command from the installationDirectory\truesightpserver\bin folder and verify that the status of the Presentation Server is Running before applying feature packs or fix packs.

  On Linux computers, add & at the end of the tssh server start command so that the process runs in the background and you can continue to use the shell.
