Social Media Analytics 1.2 Fix Pack 1

Prerequisites

• IBM Social Media Analytics 1.2 IF1 or 1.2 GA is installed.

Important

Recall in the documentation for 1.2 GA the following instructions:
--------
Edit the installer/hdm/conf/.template/hadoop-conf-template/mapred-site.xml file and change the following property values:
mapred.child.java.opts
mapreduce.jobtracker.staging.root.dir
To the following values:
-Xmx2048m -Xms256m -Xcompressedrefs -Xshareclasses -Xmaxf1
<hadoop_shared_storage_location>/user
--------

i) Remove the -Xshareclasses argument from the mapred.child.java.opts property in <biginsights_location>/hdm/hadoop-conf-staging/mapred-site.xml
ii) Run the command "<biginsights_location>/bin/syncconf.sh force hadoop"

This will copy the settings from the hadoop master to each of the slaves, overwriting the configuration files on the slaves.

1. Login to the Social Media Analytics UI node as cciusr. Download and extract the FP1 package into a directory on that node.
   
   
2. Navigate to the extracted FP1 package directory.
   
   
3. Run the command 'linuxi38664h/issetup'. Install in the existing install location. By default, Social Media Analytics is installed under: /local/ibm/cognos/ci/coninsight
   
   Make sure in the payload directory, <sma_location>/cci_installmgr/cci_mngmt/cci_cli/payload, you see directories for both the SMA 1.2 GA version (1.2.0.0.0.1838) and the SMA 1.2 FP1 version (e.g. 1.2.0.1.0.2553).
   
   
4. Navigte to the '<sma_location>/cci_installmgr/cci_mngmt/cci_cli'. Back up the existing topology by running the command:
   
   mv cci_topology.xml cci_topology.bak
   
   
5. Create a new topology by running the command and following any prompts:
   
   ./cci_gen_topology.sh -mt cci_topology.bak -t cci_topology.xml
   
   
6. Run the following command to install FP1: ./cci_cli.sh -process installer
   
   
7. When prompted for the payload, select the update to be applied by typing the associated number of the SMA 1.2 FP1 build (i.e. the number associated to the '1.2.0.1.0.2553 - SMA1.2 (FP1)' entry) and press enter.
   
   The word 'Done' displays when the update is complete. You can check the registry.xml file under <sma_location>/cci_installmgr/cci_mngmt/cci_runtime/ and verify if the global registry show status 'Complete' with the latest build installed.
   
   If global registry show the status 'Error' or 'Initial' with the 1.2 FP1 install attempt, there are some issues with the last install, or one or more prerequsites are not met. In case any errors were reported, check the log file under <sma_location>/cci_installmgr/cci_mngmt/installed_modules/logs/xpress/cci_servlet.log for details.
   
   Please note: you can still attempt to run the installer process again by repeating steps 6-7, after fixing the problems reported with your install (e.g. all prerequisites met, etc...)
