Upgrading the Container to Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 PL01

Each service package gets delivered with an upgrade script included in the container ZIP file. These instructions pertain when upgrading the Mobiliser Platform container from Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 to Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 PL01.

Prerequisites
You can perform this upgrade procedure from any Mobiliser Platform 5.1 version directly to 5.1 SP02 PL01.
Task

The upgrade script applies a service package to an already installed Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 container. The script replaces all existing product bundles with the latest corresponding bundle from the service package. Any files found in the service package but not in your container are not re-added because it is assumed they were purposely removed. The script adds any new configuration files to your container but does not overwrite any configuration files and/or startup scripts you have edited. Instead, the new files are placed in the configuration directory with a .new suffix to allow the system admininstrator to inspect the changes manually. You do not have to change the database during a service package upgrade.

  1. Obtain the Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 PL01 software package, which contains upgrade software for all supported database versions.
  2. Unzip the applications.zip file to a directory. 
    This directory is where all Mobiliser Platform SP02 software resides, referred to as UPGRADE_HOME.
  3. In the UPGRADE_HOME directory, go to the directory that represents the database back end for your current Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 installation:
    • ase
    • db2
    • oracle
  4. Unzip the com.sybase365.mobiliser.dist.DB_Version-5.1.0.SP02PL01.zip in the current directory. 
    Change to this newly created directory, then proceed to the /bin directory. The /bin directory contains the installservicepack.sh shell script used to upgrade your Mobiliser Platform container to SP02 PL01. 
  5. Execute installservicepack.sh indicating the Mobiliser Platform 5.1 SP02 installation directory and the location of the SP02 PL01 zip file as variables using the following syntax:
    ./installservicepack.sh [options] MOBILISER_HOME UPGRADE_HOME/DB_Version/com.sybase365.mobiliser.dist.DB_Version-5.1.0.SP02PL01.zip
