This section includes logging off users and shutting down
the system. To prepare and secure
the system for updating: If you are performing
a Distributing Staging Area, or Modify Remote System task, log
on from the remote system console. If you are performing a Manage Patch, Add-on, Update, or Re-Install
task, log on from the local system console. :HELLO MANAGER.SYS,PUB;HIPRI :SPOOLER LP;START :STREAMs streams_device
|
A common streams_device value
is 10. An LP device must be configured in
SYSGEN. Already spooled and streamed
messages might display. If you are performing an Add-on, Update, or Remote
CD-ROM task, go to Step 3. If you are performing a Manage Patch, Staging Area, or Add-on
tape task, go to Step 4.
CD-ROM TasksRemove and
reinsert
CSLT tape. If you are
on the remote system, insert the CSLT
tape for the first time. If you are using DDS tape and you are modifying
the system on which you created the CSLT, be sure to remove the
CSLT tape from the tape drive before performing the modification.
Reinsert the CSLT tape. Go to Step 4.
If you are performing an Update task, go to Step
5. If you are performing an Add-on, Manage Patch, Staging Area,
or Remote system task, go to Step 6.
Update TasksRun HP Predictive
Support and turn it off. If you are using the HP Predictive Support software as
part of your Hewlett-Packard hardware support contract, ensure that
an HP Predictive Support run completes successfully. Issue the
HP Predictive Support command: This run of HP Predictive Support may include a transfer of
files to the Hewlett-Packard Response Center. If a transfer is needed,
be sure it completes because the system
update overwrites the information in the file PSDCFILE.PRED.SYS. Select item 4, Configuration, from the Main menu. Select item 5, Schedule, from the Configuration
Options menu. Select item 1, Schedule (on/off), from the Schedule
menu. Set the preference, at the prompt, type OFF: Type schedule preference (on/off) or // to cancel: __
|
Exit the program, at the prompt, type EXIT: Type an item number, an item key, or a command: __
|
Save the values, at the prompt, type YES: Do you wish to save these values (Y/N)? __
|
Go to Step 6.
Lower
session and job limits. Warn, then log users off. :WARN@ PLEASE LOG OFF! SYSTEM UPDATE ABOUT TO BEGIN
|
Wait approximately five minutes, make sure users have saved
their work and logged off, then abort job or sessions still executing. Use
the SHOWJOB
command
to determine session and job numbers. Then, for each job and session
still executing (except yours), type: :ABORTJOB #Jnn :ABORTJOB #Snnn
|
where: - Jnn
the ID number for each job to be aborted. - Snnn
the ID number for each session to be aborted.
Deactivate NS 3000/iX, if applicable. :NSCONTROL STOP :NSCONTROL ABORT :NETCONTROL STOP
|
Terminate
logging processes. Enter the
following command
to determine if user logging processes are running: If logging processes are running on your system,
a message similar to the following will be displayed: LOGID CHANGE AUTO USERS STATE CUR REC MAX REC % USED CUR FSET SHPLOGID YES YES 1 ACTIVE 120 10016 1% 1 ORBLOGID YES YES 9 ACTIVE 3812 10016 38% 1
|
If no logging processes are running, go to Step 10. Terminate
logging processes as shown below. where logid
— the ID number for each logging process to be stopped. Record the names of the logging processes, if you want to
restart them later. Record the names on your checklist.
Prepare additional manually
installed products. If you have
ALLBASE/SQL
already installed on your system, issue starts for each DBEnvironment before you back
up the system. Refer to the ALLBASE/SQL Database Administration
Guide for more information. Briefly, you need to: Identify all your ALLBASE/SQL databases,
type: :STORE @.@.@;;FCRANGE=-491/-491;SHOW
|
Run ISQL.PUB.SYS
and issue a STARTDBE
command.
This ensures that the DBEnvironment is logically consistent in the
event that it has not been accessed since a system failure occurred. Run SQLUTIL.PUB.SYS
and issue the STORE
command
to backup each DBEnvironment. Log files are not stored using this command. In
addition, you should use the SHOWDBE
command
to ensure that all parameters are OK.
If you have ALLBASE/4GL already on your system,
unload all existing ALLBASE/4GL applications. For information on
unloading ALLBASE/4GL applications, refer to the HP ALLBASE/4GL
Developer Administration Manual. If you are installing AutoRestart/iX for the first time,
install AutoRestart/iX before you run AUTOINST.
Refer to the AutoRestart/iX Reference Manual
for installation instructions.
If you have a current full backup, you may proceed
to Step 13. If you do not already have a current full backup, proceed
to Step 12.
Backup the SystemBackup
the system using STORE with the
DIRECTORY parameter. Specify a
class name. :FILE SYSGTAPE;DEV=dev_number
|
where device_number is the
DAT class name or LDEV number of the tape device. Specify this value
if you are using a DAT or any device that has a class name other
than TAPE. Mount a write-enabled tape and create an SLT. :SYSGEN sysgen>TAPE sysgen>EXIT
|
If you are prompted for lockwords on system files,
record the names of each system file as prompted, then type the
lockword and continue with the backup. You will need to restore
these lockwords later in "Setting Passwords and Lockwords."
Record the names on your checklist. Dismount the tape, label as SLT with date, time
and system version. Mount another blank tape and backup your user files. :FILE T;DEV=TAPE :STORE @.@.SYS,@.@.@-@.@.SYS;*T;DIRECTORY;SHOW
|
or :STORE /SYS/, / - /SYS/;*T;DIRECTORY;SHOW; & ONVS=volume_set_name1, volume_set_name2, ...
|
where volume_set_name is
the name for each user volume set you want to backup. Dismount the tape, label as backup with date, time
and system version.
Purge spool files. Purge staging groups if they exist. :PURGEGROUP UNL :PURGEGROUP USL :PURGEGROUP UXL
|
Verify each purge, type Y,
at the prompt. Do not purge the group install.sys
or the file supacct.pub.sys,
they are needed for future patch and add-on processes. If you are performing an Update, go to Step 16. If you are performing an Add-on, Manage Patch, Staging Area,
or Remote system task, go to Step 17.
Update TasksPurge specified
files and groups, if you are moving from one MPE/iX version to another. Purge the
PSIDNLD.DIAG.SYS
file. This file may have been purged already. This file is used
for diagnostic purposes and is overwritten by the new PSIDNLD.DIAG.SYS
file. If you do not purge the existing file, and the new file is
larger, you will receive errors. Purge each OSxnn
and XPTnnnn
group in the telesup
account, if they exist. :REPORT @.TELESUP :PURGEGROUP OSxnn.TELESUP :PURGEGROUP XPT@.TELESUP
|
where: - x
an alphabetic character - nn
the numeric release number (for example, OSA10.TELESUP
and 0SB23.TELESUP).
Go to Step 17.
Rename the COMMAND.PUB.SYS
file. :RENAME COMMAND.PUB.SYS,command_name
|
where command_name is a temporary
name you are assigning the file. This preserves your UDC information
for later use. Record the temporary name on your checklist. If you are performing a Remote system task or CD-ROM
task, go to Step 19. If you are performing an Add-on, Manage Patch, or Staging
Area task with tape or disk on a local system, go to Step 20.
Remote Tasks CD-ROM TasksIf
you are preparing a CSLT tape on a central system for distribution
to a remote system or if you are modifying
the remote system: If you are performing a PowerPatch task, go to Step
21. If you are not performing a PowerPatch task, go to the next
section on your checklist.
PowerPatch TasksRestore
the AUTOINST
file set and its dependencies, except for checklists L and M which
included this step in section 5.7. Log onto
the INSTALL group, and enter the
following at the system prompt: :HELLO MANAGER.SYS,INSTALL;HIPRI :FILE PPT;DEV=TAPE
|
Mount the PowerPatch
tape and put the tape drive online. Issue the following command
to restore the files: :RUN STORE.PUB.SYS;INFO="RESTORE *PPT;A@,F@;SHOW;DEV=1"
|
Dismount the tape when the restore is complete.
Securing the System completed.
Go to the next section on your checklist.
