Upgrading the Portal with Additional Products

Upgrading a Portal and Data Collectors > Upgrading the Portal with Additional Products

Version 9.2.01

If you have purchased licenses for additional products, the following procedures provide the steps to create the necessary database tables.

Upgrade Scenarios

• Adding Storage Viewer for File Analytics, Storage Viewer for Capacity, Storage Viewer for SAN Fabrics, and Storage Viewer for Virtual Servers

• Adding Storage Viewer for Backup

• Adding new subsystems to existing Storage Viewer for Capacity

• Adding new subsystems to an existing Storage Viewer for Backup

Most Hitachi Storage Viewer products use the same set of instructions to upgrade the Portal with new HDS products, upgrade existing HDS products, and add subsystem support.

Storage Viewer for Backup requires an additional step when adding it to the Portal. Storage Viewer for Capacity automatically adds new subsystem support through the standard upgrade process.

Adding Database Tables

Once you upgrade the Hitachi Storage Viewer platform, to add new products use the following procedures to set up the database tables.

These instructions apply to:

• Adding Storage Viewer for File Analytics, Storage Viewer for Capacity, Storage Viewer for SAN Fabrics, and Storage Viewer for Virtual Servers

• Adding new subsystems to an existing Storage Viewer for Backup

Please note these are generic instructions and you must replace the variable entries with those that correspond with your subsystem as listed in Table 1, “Database Table Creation Script Names”. Instructions for Hitachi Storage Viewer for Backup follow, see Adding Database Tables for Hitachi Storage Viewer for Backup.

Prerequisites

• Hitachi Storage Viewer 9.2.xx must be installed.

• Hitachi Storage Viewer for Capacity must be installed prior to installing Storage Viewer for SAN Fabrics and Storage Viewer for File Analytics.

• Refer to Table 1, “Database Table Creation Script Names” for script naming specifics. The following steps use a variable.

To add database tables

1. Log in as aptare to your Hitachi Storage Viewer Database server.

You must be logged in as a database user. If you already are logged in as root: su - aptare

2. Prepare the database for the new tables.

cd /opt/aptare/database/setup

3. Run the SQL scripts.

sqlplus portal/portal @setup_<name>.plb

EXAMPLE: sqlplus portal/portal @setup_avm.plb

cd /opt/aptare/database/ora_scripts

sqlplus / as sysdba @create_aptare_ro_user_<name>_views.sql

EXAMPLE: sqlplus / as sysdba @create_aptare_ro_user_avm_views.sql

4. Validate the database.

cd /opt/aptare/database/tools

sqlplus portal/portal @validate_sp.sql

Note: Run the validate_sp.sql script when the Portal and Data Collector Services are down. Performance is degraded when the services are running.

If the release introduces new features and reports, you must enable them in the Portal after you upgrade. See Enabling New Features and Report Templates Using the Portal.

Adding Database Tables for Hitachi Storage Viewer for Backup

Once you upgrade the Hitachi Storage Viewer platform, to add Storage Viewer for Backup, use the following Windows or Linux procedures to set up the database tables.

Please note these are generic instructions and you must replace the variable entries with those that correspond with your subsystem as listed in Table 1, “Database Table Creation Script Names”.
