Verifying the installation

After you install a fix pack, verify that the installation was successful by completing the steps that are listed here.

Procedure

To verify that the installation was successful, complete the following steps:

  1. Start Product Master.
  2. Run the start_local.sh script in the $TOP/bin/go directory to start all the services needed to run the Product Master.
  3. Run the svc_control.sh script to start the individual services.
    The svc_control.sh supports starting multiple services from the same command:
    svc_control.sh --action=start --svc_name=<service name>[--svc_name=<service name>]

    Example

    svc_control.sh --action=start --svc_name=appsvr --svc_name=admin --svc_name=scheduler
     ML services 
    1. Go to the scripts folder, for example $TOP/mdmui/machinelearning/scripts.
    2. Use the following commands as required:
      To start the service: 
      Python 3.x.x start.pyc
     Free Text Search services 
    To start the service: 
    $TOP/mdmui/bin/startFtsServices.sh
    To stop the service: 
    $TOP/mdmui/bin/stopFtsServices.sh
  4. Run the gdsmsg.sh script located in the $TOP/bin/ directory to start the GDS messaging service (optional):
    gdsmsg.sh start
    Important: For Product Master running WebSphere® Application Server, as part of a new installation or an upgrade to an existing installation, use the redeploy option when running the start_local.sh script to ensure that the web services are deployed to the Product Master application.

    This process might take approximately 30 - 40 seconds, depending on the speed of your CPU processor.

  5. Verify that all Product Master JVM services are started.
  6. Run the $TOP/bin/go/rmi_status.sh script and verify that the following services are started correctly:
    • admin_machine_Name
    • appsvr_machine_Name
    • eventprocessor_machine_Name
    • queuemanager_machine_Name
    • scheduler_machine_Name
    • workflow_machine_Name
    • Dashboards service status
    • FTS service status
    • Machine learning service status
  7. Run the following script to verify that the GDS messaging services are correctly started :

    $TOP/bin/gdsmsg.sh status

  8. Verify the Product Master installation by reviewing version of the installed Product Master.
    1. Run the get_ccd_version.sh shell script in the $TOP/bin directory.

      $TOP/bin/get_ccd_version.sh

    2. View the installation version through the Product Master user interface.
