PGRADING
TO
STRM 2008.3
•
Make sure you upgrade all systems in your deployment hosting VIS
components. If you do not upgrade these systems, error messages may appear
in the log files until the affected systems are upgraded.
•
Custom configuration to the crontab is not maintained after the upgrade. The
default crontab configuration is applied by the upgrade process. We
recommend that you backup your crontab configuration prior to the upgrade
using the
crontab –l > /tmp/crontab_backup
command. However, after
the upgrade, do not replace the default crontab configuration with the backup
version since this results in lost changes for STRM 2008.2. You must re-apply
your custom crontab configuration after the upgrade process.
•
Make sure that all systems upgrading to STRM 2008.2 include a minimum of 36
GB drives.
•
We recommend that all systems include a minimum of 8 GB of memory. Note
that most STRM appliances will not complete the upgrade process if your
system includes less than 8 GB of memory.
•
Make sure that you have Java Runtime Environment installed on your system.
You can download Java version 1.5.0_12 at the following web site:
