Prerequisites

The new version will need to be downloaded and this tutorial assumes you have put it in /tmp, it can be anywhere you like but you will have to adjust the command to untar. 

scp opExport-New-Version.tar.gz user@server:/tmp/

Upgrade Steps

cd /usr/local

  1. Backup old installation 

    cp -r omk omk-backup-<date>/

  2. Stop the current service (note, if your server is running multiple omkd then you will need to use ps -ef to find the correct one).  The opmante.exe WITHOUT the webserver is the one we want.

    #more than one omkd use these instructions
 ps -ef | grep opmantek.exe
[root@server ~]# ps -ef | grep opmantek.exe
 root 944 742 0 20:44 pts/0 00:00:00 grep opmantek.exe
 root 16533 1 8 Dec12 ? 09:44:54 opmantek.exe
 root 20229 1 0 Dec06 ? 00:02:10 opmantek.exe webserver 

kill 16533 # (leave 20229, it is not opExport)

ps aux | grep opmantek.exe

  3. Untar the new version 

    cd /usr/local
tar -zxvf /tmp/opExport-New-Version.tar.gz

  4. Upgrade the configuration 

    cd /usr/local/omk
./bin/opupdateconfig.pl ./install/opCommon.nmis ./conf/opCommon.nmis

  5. Start the service back up 

    service omkd start

  6. Load the GUI in web browser http://your.upgraded.server.name.or.ip:3000/omk/opExport, this is required to accept the EULA, if this is not done schemas will not be saved in the next step!

  7. Push schema to NMIS server from MySQL (only if the upgraded server is NMIS server) .
