BEFORE GETTING STARTED
======================

This patch is for VCS 5.0 Enterprise Agents on Linux.
This README is applicable to all the Enterprise Agents in cluster_server_agents directory in the 5.0 MP1 software disc.

The cluster_server_agent directory structure is as follows :

For DB2 agent
-------------

./db2_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsdb-5.0.10.00-MP1_GENERIC.noarch.rpm
./db2_agent/rpms/SYMClma-4.2.17.0-0.<architecture>.rpm
./db2_agent/rpms/VRTSsmf-1.3.16.0-0.<architecture>.rpm

For ORACLE agent
----------------
./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTScsocw-5.0.10.00-MP1_GENERIC.noarch.rpm
./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsor-5.0.10.00-MP1_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
./oracle_agent/rpms/SYMClma-4.2.17.0-0.<architecture>.rpm
./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTSsmf-1.3.16.0-0.<architecture>.rpm

For SYBASE agent
----------------
./sybase_agent/rpms/VRTSvcssy-5.0.10.00-MP1_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
./sybase_agent/rpms/SYMClma-4.2.17.0-0.<architecture>.rpm
./sybase_agent/rpms/VRTSsmf-1.3.16.0-0.<architecture>.rpm


INSTALLING THE RPMS
-------------------

Install the RPMs on all systems in the cluster.

To install the RPMs:

1. If VCS is running, stop VCS:
# hastop -local -force

2. Remove any previous version of the VCS Enterprise Agent.
  Depending on the Enterprise Agent that you configured in the cluster, do
  one of the following:

  For Oracle Agent:
# rpm -e VRTScsocw
# rpm -e VRTSvcsor
  For Sybase Agent:
# rpm -e VRTSvcssy
  For DB2 Agent:
# rpm -e VRTSvcsdb

3. Install the respective agent from the disc.
  Change the current working directory to cluster_server_agents.
  Install the new RPMs:

  For Oracle agent:
# rpm -ivh ./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsor-5.0.10.00-MP1_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
#rpm -ivh ./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTScsocw-5.0.10.00-MP1_GENERIC.noarch.rpm
  For Sybase agent :
#rpm -ivh ./sybase_agent/rpms/VRTSvcssy-5.0.10.00-MP1_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
  For DB2 agent :
#rpm -ivh ./db2_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsdb-5.0.10.00-MP1_GENERIC.noarch.rpm

4. If the VRTSsmf and SYMClma RPMs exist, verify whether these RPMs have the
  following RPM versioning:
  SYMClma-4.2.17.0-0.<architecture>.rpm
  VRTSsmf-1.3.16.0-0.<architecture>.rpm

  To verify the RPM version, type the following commands:
#rpm -qa | grep SYMClma
#rpm -qa | grep VRTSsmf

5. If the VRTSsmf or SYMClma RPMs are not the latest or if these RPMs do not exist, then
  install the following RPMs.
  Note that you must install these RPMs only once for any combinations of the
  agents that you use.
  #rpm -ivh ./sybase_agent/rpms/SYMClma-4.2.17.0-0.<architecture>.rpm
#rpm -ivh ./sybase_agent/rpms/VRTSsmf-1.3.16.0-0.<architecture>.rpm

6. Restart VCS:
       # hastart


REMOVING THE RPMS
-----------------

1. If VCS is running, stop VCS:
       # hastop -local -force

2. Remove VCS Enterprise Agent RPMs.
  Depending on the Enterprise Agent that you configured in the cluster, do
  one of the following:

  For Oracle Agent:
       # rpm -e VRTScsocw
       # rpm -e VRTSvcsor
  For Sybase Agent:
# rpm -e VRTSvcssy
  For DB2 Agent:
# rpm -e VRTSvcsdb

3. If you want to restore the Enterprise Agents to 5.0 version, install the 5.0
  agents from the 5.0 media:

  For Oracle agent:
       #rpm -ivh ./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsor-5.0.00.0-GA_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
#rpm -ivh ./oracle_agent/rpms/VRTScsocw-5.0.00.0-GA_GENERIC.noarch.rpm
  For Sybase agent :
#rpm -ivh ./sybase_agent/rpms/VRTSvcssy-5.0.00.0-GA_<distribution>.<architecture>.rpm
  For DB2 agent :
#rpm -ivh ./db2_agent/rpms/VRTSvcsdb-5.0.00.0-GA_GENERIC.noarch.rpm

4. Restart VCS:
       # hastart
