Before You Upgrade

Before You Upgrade

To prepare for the upgrade, perform the following tasks:
  1. Verify that you have the user names and passwords for the required database accounts.
  2. Verify that no publications or subscriptions are running and that all events are in a Final state.
    You can view the state of all events in the
    B2B Data Exchange
     Operation Console, on the
    Event List
     page.
  3. Ensure that the all topics are in a Valid status.
    You can view the status of all topics in the
    B2B Data Exchange
     Operation Console, on the
    Topics
     page.
  4. Ensure that the retention management job is not running. If the retention management job is running, you will see an incomplete System Event for the retention management job.
    If the publication repository is used by applications other than
    B2B Data Exchange
    , you might lose data in the tables that are not managed by
    B2B Data Exchange
     when the upgrade is complete.
  5. Ensure that the
    dx.endpoint.file.prefix
     property is empty.
    This property is the landing zone path. Earlier releases of Data Integration Hub do not support this property. If this property value is not empty, then set it to an empty value.
  6. Stop all
    B2B Data Exchange
     services. The
    B2B Data Exchange
     upgrade modifies the
    B2B Data Exchange
     files. The installer cannot proceed if the files are in use.
    If the
    B2B Data Exchange
     Hadoop Service component is installed on a different machine than the machine where you installed
    B2B Data Exchange
    , stop the services on both machines. For more information, see Starting and Stopping B2B Data Exchange on UNIX.
  7. Stop all PowerCenter workflows that process
    B2B Data Exchange
     documents. In PowerCenter, stop all workflows that process
    B2B Data Exchange
     documents. Do not start the workflows again until the upgrade is complete.
  8. Unschedule all custom workflows in PowerCenter. In PowerCenter, unschedule all custom workflows and verify that they do not run until the upgrade is complete.
  9. Back up the
    B2B Data Exchange
     repository to be upgraded. Use the database server backup utility to back up the repository. This ensures that you can recover from any errors that you encounter during the upgrade.
  10. Back up the
    B2B Data Exchange
     publication repository to be upgraded. Use the database server backup utility to back up the repository. This ensures that you can recover from any errors that you encounter during the upgrade.
  11. Back up the existing
    B2B Data Exchange
     installation folder. Perform this action to help ensure that you can recover from any errors encountered during the upgrade, and that, after the upgrade, you can reapply modifications that were made to the configuration in previous versions.
  12. If the PowerCenter services are not installed on the same machine where
    B2B Data Exchange
     is installed and you have upgraded the pmrep command line utility after you installed the previous version of
    B2B Data Exchange
    , clean up all CNX files from the
    Tmp
     folder on your root directory.
  13. If the Partners Portal was not installed on your system in previous versions and you want to install the portal when you upgrade to the new version, open ports to the portal in your firewall.
