Upgrading From IPM Software Release 1.0

When you perform the upgrade all of your collector, source, target, and operation configurations are converted for use in IPM software release 2.0. Also, the performance information that is stored in the IPM database is converted so that your data is available in IPM software release 2.0.

When you upgrade from IPM software release 1.0, you must uninstall the IPM software before installing IPM software release 2.0. You do not have to unload and upgrade the IPM release 1.0 configuration information and data, but we recommend that you do. Once the IPM software is uninstalled you no longer are able to retrieve that information.

• Location of the Sybase SQL server home directory---If CiscoWorks is installed, the Sybase home directory is /opt/CSCOsyb.

• Name of the SQL server---If CiscoWorks is installed, the Sybase server is named CW_SYBASE.

• SA password for the Sybase SQL server---If CiscoWorks is installed, the Sybase password is sybasesa.

• Location where you want to temporarily store the IPM software release 1.0 data---The location that you specify must have enough free space available (greater than or equal to the size of the IPM database).

---

Note You might need a large amount of free space if you have a large amount of IPM software release 1.0 data.

To unload the IPM data from a Sun Solaris workstation running IPM software release 1.0, complete the following tasks:

Step 1 Log in as the root user and verify that IPM is not running.

Step 2 Insert the IPM software release 2.0 CD-ROM into the drive and mount the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 In the root directory of the CD-ROM image, run the following command to unload the IPM database:

# ./unloadIPM10Data.sh
 

Step 4 Press Enter to accept the default path or type the location of the Sybase SQL server home directory for IPM software release 1.0, when the following message prompt appears:

Specify Sybase SQL Server Home directory for IPM 1.0: ? [/opt/CSCOsyb]
 

If CiscoWorks is installed, the Sybase home directory is /opt/CSCOsyb.

Step 5 Press Enter to accept the default SQL server name, or type the name of the SQL server when the following message prompt appears:

Sybase SQL Server Name: ? [CW_SYBASE]
 

Step 6 Type the SQL server SA password when the following message prompt appears:

Sybase SQL Server SA Password: ? 
 

If CiscoWorks is installed, the Sybase password is sybasesa.

Step 7 Type the location where you want to temporarily save IPM software release 1.0 data, when the following message appears:

Specify the temporary directory for saving IPM 1.0 data: ? 
 

Step 8 When the following message appears, press Enter to confirm that the information that you specified is acceptable:

Are these settings correct? (y/n)? [ y ] 
 

Step 9 The unload program begins to copy the database records. When the unload is complete, verify that you receive the following message that the data has been successfully unloaded to the directory that you specified:

IPM 1.0 data have been unloaded to directory '/tmp'.

Step 1 Log in as the root user.

Step 2 Change to the /install directory where IPM software release 1.0 is located using the cd command as shown in the following example:

# cd /opt/CSCOipm/install
 

Where /opt/CSCOipm is the subdirectory where you installed the IPM software. This path might vary for your site's installation.

Step 3 To start the interactive deinstallation script, enter the following command:

# ./deinstallIPM
 

The deinstallation script lists the file sets that are installed.

Step 4 In response to the following message, enter y:

Do you wish to remove IPMDB database from Sybase? (y/n)? [n] : y
 

You can now run IPM software release 2.0 and perform the operations described in the Internetwork Performance Monitor User Guide.
