Upgrading the master and database on Linux

The update processes of the master and the database are closely linked together and consist of the operations described in the following topics.

Note:

The new version of Client Management requires new tablespaces. If you have an Oracle database and have not yet upgraded your tablespaces, first see Upgrading your Oracle database . If you have an PostgreSQL database, the tablespace upgrade is included in the master upgrade process. However, in specific situations, you still must upgrade the tablespaces manually, for example, if you renamed the tablespaces from their default values. To upgrade the database, see Upgrading your PostgreSQL database before starting the following procedure.

  1. Open the /root/BMC/upgrade/master folder.
  2. Open a terminal window, and change directory to /root/BMC/upgrade/master .
  3. Execute this command: sh linux-master-upgrade.sh .
  4. The upgrade executable first stops the agent.
  5. Answer the questions that appear in the terminal window.This upgrade process automatically updates all operational rule steps, report templates and predefined objects. If you want to manually update the predefined objects at another time, see Upgrading the Predefined Objects .
  6. The upgrade process restarts the agent.
