12.2.3 Upgrading from version 7 JP1/IM - Manager products

Note the following points if you are upgrading to JP1/IM - Manager version 9 from a version 7 JP1/IM - Manager product.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Installation directories

(2) Upgrading from JP1/IM - Central Console version 7

(1) Installation directories

As described in the table below, JP1/IM - Manager consists of three broad categories of information, each of which is stored in a separate directory at JP1/IM - Manager installation.

Table 12-4 Categories of JP1/IM - Manager information

Category	Description
JP1/IM - Manager information	Information about JP1/IM - Manager as a whole (including JP1/IM - Central Console and JP1/IM - Central Scope)
Central Console information	Information about Central Console functionality (corresponds to JP1/IM - Central Console in previous versions)
Central Scope information	Information about Central Scope functionality (corresponds to JP1/IM - Central Scope in previous versions)

When you upgrade in Windows, the information is sorted into folders as follows:

Manager-path <- JP1/IM - Manager information
Console-path  <- Central Console information#
Scope-path    <- Central Scope information#

#: If you installed a previous version of JP1/IM - Central Console or JP1/IM - Central Scope in a different folder, that folder is used and the folder shown above is not created.

When you upgrade in UNIX, the information is sorted into directories as follows:

/etc/opt/jp1imm/    <- JP1/IM - Manager information
/opt/jp1imm/         <- As above
/var/opt/jp1imm/    <- As above
/etc/opt/jp1cons/   <- Central Console information
/opt/jp1cons/        <- As above
/var/opt/jp1cons/   <- As above
/etc/opt/jp1scope/  <- Central Scope information
/opt/jp1scope/       <- As above
/var/opt/jp1scope/  <- As above

(2) Upgrading from JP1/IM - Central Console version 7

Back up the settings information before you upgrade JP1/IM - Manager. For the procedure, see the manual for the previous version.

When you upgrade, the definition information is migrated from JP1/IM - Central Console version 7. However, note the following points:

• When you upgrade from JP1/IM - Central Console version 07-00, the information defined as conditions for event receiver filters, severe events filter, view filters, and event searches is migrated as follows. Change the condition group names as required.
  
  • Event receiver filter
    The filter name and user name remain as set; the filter conditions are moved to Existing conditions group.
    
  • Severe events filter
    The filter conditions are moved to Existing conditions group.
    
  • View filter
    The filter name becomes Existing filter condition, and the filter conditions are moved to Existing conditions group.
    
  • Event search conditions
    The event search conditions are moved to Existing conditions group.
    
• When you upgrade from JP1/IM - Central Console version 07-00 or 07-10, the following message may appear in a dialog box: KAVB9032-E An attempt to switch the action information file has failed. (code = maintenance-code). In this case, take action according to the maintenance codes listed in the table below.
  

  Table 12-5 KAVB9032-E maintenance codes

  Maintenance code	Action
  2	When the installation has finished, collect information using a data collection tool and contact the system administrator. Report the maintenance code also.
  3	When the installation has finished, collect information using a data collection tool and contact the system administrator. Report the maintenance code also.
  4	When the installation has finished, stop all applications not in use. Then re-install the program by performing an overwrite installation.

• The Web-based operation definition file used in version 7 is renamed as described in the table below, and a new file is created for version 9. The definition information is not migrated.
  

  Table 12-6 Renaming of the Web-based operation definition file

  OS	Before renaming	After renaming
  Windows	console-path\www\console.html	console-path\www\console.html.jp1_im_console_v7_backup
  UNIX	/opt/jp1cons/www/console.html	/opt/jp1cons/www/console.html.jp1_im_console_v7_backup

  If you want to continue using the previous definition information in version 9, access the renamed file and copy its contents to a new file for version 9. For details about the Web-based operation definition file, see Web-based operation definition file (console.html) in 2. Definition Files in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager Command and Definition File Reference.
  
• The same cautionary notes apply as when upgrading the Central Console from JP1/IM - Manager version 8. For details, see 12.2.1(1) Upgrading from the Central Console version 8.
