Upgrade IBM Case Foundation by
installing IBM Case Foundation using
the installation wizard screens included with the installation package.
Before you begin
Be sure that you have available the Installation and Upgrade
Worksheet that was completed during your planning activities.
Procedure
- Open your completed Installation and Upgrade
Worksheet file.
Tip: In the worksheet file, verify that the command is enabled. To view only IBM Case Foundation values,
filter by CF Installer in the Installation or Configuration
Program column.
-
If you are upgrading on the same machine where Content Platform Engine
was previously installed, log on as the same user who originally installed that software. The
installation program requires this to detect that it is an upgrade and to use the same installation
path. If you are upgrading on a new machine, where Content Platform Engine
has never been installed, log on as the cpe_install_user. The latter would be the
case where you are doing a migration upgrade, installing on a new machine but upgrading an existing
database.
- Navigate to the IBM Case Foundation software package in the installation media.
- Run one of the following programs in the software
package, depending on your operating system:
| Platform |
Command |
| AIX® |
5.3.0-P8CaseFoundation-AIX.BIN |
| Linux® |
5.3.0-P8CaseFoundation-LINUX.BIN |
| Linux for System z® |
5.3.0-P8CaseFoundation-ZLINUX.BIN |
| Windows |
5.3.0-P8CaseFoundation-WIN.EXE |
- Complete the IBM Case Foundation installer screens by
using the values from your worksheet.
- Review the status messages in the final wizard screen,
and close the wizard.
-
When the installation completes, check for errors in the IBM Case Foundation log file
case_foundation_install_path/casefoundation_install_log_5.3.0.txt,
where case_foundation_install_path is the location where IBM Case Foundation is installed. Also check the file
case_foundation_install_path/caseFoundation_install_summary.txt
to see a summary of the installation.
-
Re-run the Content Platform Engine installation with only the Tools
component selected.
