Installation information
Prior to installation
Installing
Installing the IBM Cloud Application Performance Management Hybrid Gateway update
1. Download 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-GATEWAY-IF0006.tar from IBM Fix Central to a temporary directory (e.g. /tmp/if06-patch) on the computer where you installed the Hybrid Gateway.
2. Change your current directory to the download location, e.g.
cd /tmp/if06-patch
3. Expand the archive file using the tar command
e.g. tar -xf 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-GATEWAY-IF0006.tar
4. Run the script hgpatch.sh:
cd 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-GATEWAY-IF0006
./hgpatch.sh
Notes:
- If Hybrid Gateway services need to be stopped for the patch to be applied, you will be asked to confirm that you want to install the patch.
- When hgpatch.sh is complete, a summary is displayed showing the number of fixes that were installed, the number of fixes that were not installed because they have previously been installed, and the number of fixes that failed to install. If any fixes failed to install, more information can be found in the file hgpatch.log in the logs directory,
e.g./opt/ibm/hybridgateway/logs/hgpatch.log. - A record of each fix applied can be found in the
/opt/ibm/hybridgateway/fixesdirectory. Do not modify this directory or its contents. It is needed if other fixes are applied in the future.
Performing the necessary tasks after installation
The Hybrid Gateway interim fix installation logs are written to the /opt/ibm/hybridgateway/logs/hgpatch.log file.
