Installation Instructions

Before installing this interim fix, download the interim fix to a dedicated location: 9.5.0.1-WS-ODM-IF002.zip

This interim fix includes all fixes from previous versions on the 9.5.0.1-WS-ODM component.

To install the interim fix, ODM on premise instructions :

  • Install the interim fix using one of the following methods:
    • Installation using the IBM Installation Manager UI
      1. Select File > Preferences > Repositories.
      2. Click Add Repository, browse to select the downloaded zip file, and confirm.
      3. Back in the main UI, select Update and follow the instructions.
    • Silent installation using IBM Installation Manager commands
      1. Find the fix ID with the command:
      2. imcl listAvailableFixes com.ibm.websphere.odm.dc.v95_9.5.0 -repositories <zip-location>/com.ibm.odm.<your_app_server>_9.5.0.1-IF002.zip
        or
        imcl listAvailableFixes com.ibm.websphere.odm.ds.rules.v95_9.5.0 -repositories <zip-location>/com.ibm.odm.<your_app_server>_9.5.0.1-IF002.zip
        Both will give the same result but use the correct one depending on DC or DS, as it could impact the uninstall.
        The fix ID has the following pattern:
        com.ibm.odm.<your_app_server>.v95-fix_4.0.1.IFxxx
      3. Install with the command:
        imcl install <fix ID> -repositories <zip-location>/com.ibm.odm.<your_app_server>_9.5.0.1-IF002.zip -installationDirectory <odm_home>
      4. The ifix zip and fix ID depend on the appserver.

To install the interim fix, ODM on Kubernetes instructions :

  • Install the interim fix using one of the following methods:

    • Using images in registry:

      Set $name to the name of the ODM deployment.

      1. Retrieve helm values for your deployment:

        helm get values $name > myodmvalues.yaml

      2. Upgrade your deployment with helm:

        helm upgrade $name -f myodmvalues.yaml ibm-helm/ibm-odm-prod --version 25.1.2

    • Air gap installation:

      Set $name to the name of the ODM deployment.

      1. Update your mirror images following the Mirroring images to a private registry documentation.

      2. Retrieve helm values for your deployment:

        helm get values $name > myodmvalues.yaml

      3. Upgrade your deployment with helm:

        helm upgrade $name -f myodmvalues.yaml \
                 --set image.repository=$TARGET_REGISTRY/cp/cp4a/odm/ \
                 --set image.pullSecrets=pull-secret \
                 ~/.ibm-pak/data/cases/$CASE_NAME/$CASE_VERSION/charts/ibm-odm-prod-25.1.2.tgz

For ODM on premise, perform the necessary tasks after installation

Once the installation is complete you can close Installation Manager.

Refer to the Problems solved section and perform the necessary steps depending on the impacted component you need to fix.

If your application embeds jars, repackage your application using the modified jars found in ODM_HOME/teamserver/lib and ODM_HOME/executionserver/lib. If you don't need them you can delete old versions of third party jar files.

Note: The interim fix does not update the Sample Server.

Interim Fix specific steps:

  •  

Decision Center

Find the Decision Center archive file corresponding to your application server under ODM_HOME/teamserver/applicationservers and redeploy it.

  • jboss/jrules-teamserver-JBOSS8.ear
  • tomcat/decisioncenter.war
  • tomcat/decisioncenter-api.war
  • WLP/decisioncenter.war
  • WLP/decisioncenter-api.war

Rule Execution Server

RES Console

If your are using the Execution Server Console, find the EAR corresponding to your application server under ODM_HOME/executionserver/applicationservers.

  • jboss/jrules-res-management-JBOSS.ear
  • tomcat/res.war
  • WLP/res.war

HTDS

If you are using the HTDS application, redeploy the application located in ODM_HOME/executionserver/applicationservers.

  • joss/jrules-res-htds-JBOSS.ear
  • tomcat/DecisionService.war
  • WLP/DecisionService.war

XU

Find the XU rar corresponding to your application server under ODM_HOME/executionserver/applicationservers and redeploy it.

  • jboss/jrules-res-xu-JBOSS.rar

If you have not installed Rule Designer from ODM_HOME/studio/update-sites/, copy the new update sites into your location before applying the above procedure.

Note: if you are upgrading your Rule Designer environment from 9.5.0.0-IF003 or earlier iFix version, you need to start from a new Eclipse then follow these steps:

  1. In the configuration/config.ini file of your Eclipse installation, add the IBM_DS_HOME property to define the Decision Server installation directory, for example: IBM_DS_HOME=<InstallDir>/ODM950

    The installation directory contains the components for Decision Server such as executionserver and studio.
  2. Start Eclipse or a supported IBM® Eclipse-based product.
  3. Open Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available software sites.
    1. Keep the following sites enabled but disable the rest:
      - https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2024-12
      - https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/4.34
    2. Click Apply and Close
  4. Click Help > Install New Software.

    1. In the Install wizard, next to the Work with field, click Add.
    2. In the Add Repository dialog, click Archive.
    3. Browse to the <InstallDir>/studio/update-sites directory, click Open, and select rule-designer-update-site.zip.
    4. In the Name field, enter a name for the site, and then click OK. This might take a few seconds.
  6. Expand the ODM Rule Studio Features category, and select IBM Decision Server Rule Designer.
  7. Click Next.
    Eclipse calculates the dependencies and requirements.
  8. In the Install dialog, click Next, select I accept the terms of the license agreements, and click Finish.
    The installation might take a few seconds to complete.
  9. In the Trust Artifacts dialog, select Unsigned and click Trust Selected.
  10. Click Restart Now when you are prompted to restart Eclipse.

Build Command

For the Build Command command line tool, find the modified jar under
ODM_HOME/buildcommand/rules-compiler/rules-compiler.jar.

If you are using the Build Command Maven plugin, redeploy the plugin in your environment:

  • To deploy to a remote Maven repository, use the following command:
    mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.pom
  • You can also test the plugin locally by running the following command:
    mvn install:install-file -Dfile=rules-compiler.jar -DpomFile=rules-compiler-maven-plugin.pom

For ODM on Kubernetes, perform the necessary tasks after installation

Once the installation is complete you can close Installation Manager.

Refer to the Problems solved section and perform the necessary steps depending on the impacted component you need to fix.

If your application embeds jars, repackage your application using the modified jars found in https://DC_URL/assets/decision-center-client-api.zip
