Note
Important! This upgrade requires manual pre and post actions. See Manual Pre Update Steps and Manual Pre Update Steps for more details.


DPOD software updates are available from time to time and include enhancements, security updates, component upgrade, bug fixes etc.

Each DPOD fixpack file is not including any previous fixpack. For example: to upgrade from v1.0.5 to v1.0.7 you will need to first upgrade to v1.0.6 with the downloaded fix of v106 and after a succesful successful upgrade to v106 you may apply the fix to v107.

...

If there is not enough free disk space on the "/installs" mount point the user may free some by deleting files from the following directories :

DirectoryDescription
/installs/update/fix/TODORemove old DPOD update files (.sfs)
/installs/update/fix/backupsRemove old DPOD backup directories
/installs/APPL-setupRemove DPOD installation file


Install the software update

Manual Pre Update Steps


Note

A technical issue prevents upgrading DPOD installations that were installed using version 1.0.2.0 ISO file.
Before upgrading an 1.0.2.0 ISO-based DPOD installation to a newer version, please run the following command from a console / ssh session:
cd /installs
rm -rf dev-tools

To identify the ISO version used for your installation, please run the CLI Admin utility (app-util.sh) and select option 9 (system version).
The version appears in the ISO file name next to the "package_name" attribute, for example: ibm-DPOD-STD-APPL-1.0.2.0-2016-11-15_03_50_10_731-IST-BLD212.isoDPOD's Store service cannot run under root and requires a dedicated user to run.

During "Non Appliance" installation only, the software update installation user will be asked to provide the Store service dedicated user.

Example for creating Store service dedicated user : groupadd storeadms && useradd -g storeadms -md /home/storeadm -s /bin/bash storeadm

Software installation

Run the following command from the location you downloaded the update files to.
