IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Upgrade the monitoring server installation
Procedure
- Determine which cluster node runs the resource group online using the smit hacmp command.
- On the active node, stop the monitoring server:
cd /sharedisk/IBM/ITM/bin ./itmcmd stop server HUB_VIRTUALHOST
- Start IBM Tivoli Monitoring installation and upgrade the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server to latest version.
- Reconfigure the monitoring server. You can change any settings except for the "TEMS Host Name". The "TEMS Host Name" value has to be preserved, pointing to the virtual host name ("virtualhost").
cd /sharedisk/IBM/ITM/bin ./itmcmd config -S -t HUB_VIRTUALHOST
- Create two symbolic links in the same directory named "host1_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config", "host2_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config" to file "virtualhost_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config":
ln -s virtualhost_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config host1_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config ln -s virtualhost_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config host2_ms_HUB_VIRTUALHOST.config
- Start the monitoring server and add application support for the desired agent types to the monitoring server. For ux, lz, and nt:
cd /sharedisk/IBM/ITM/bin ./itmcmd server start HUB_VIRTUALHOST ./itmcmd support -t HUB_VIRTUALHOST ux lz nt
For an easier installation, install the application support for all planned agents at the same time. If you also need database agents, use the database agent installation image to install the application support for them.
- Recycle the monitoring system:
./itmcmd server stop HUB_VIRTUALHOST ./itmcmd server start HUB_VIRTUALHOST
- Test the monitoring server on clusternode1 and clusternode2 following the steps provided in Test the monitoring server on clusternode1 and Set up the monitoring server on clusternode2.
