DPOD software updates are available from time to time and include enhancements, security updates, component upgrade, bug fixes etc.
The following sections describe the process of upgrading an existing installation. 

Obtain the software update

DPOD software updates are available through IBM fix central.

The download consists of two types of files :

  1. The update file in the format of : DPOD-update-<version number>.sfs
  2. The md5 hash calculation of the update file : DPOD-update-<version number>.md5

Copy the software update to the DPOD server

Copy the update files to the following directory on the DPOD server :

 

/installs/update/fix/TODO


If the directory is missing for some reason, please re create it :


mkdir -p /installs/update/fix/TODO

Install the software update

A technical issue was found when upgrading DPOD installed using 1.0.2 ISO file.
Before upgrading from 1.0.2 ISO based DPOD installation to newer version run the following command from a console  / ssh session :
rm -rf /installs/dev-tools

To recognize the ISO version used for your installation run the CLI Admin utility app-util.sh → option 9 (system version)
→ look for the "package_name" attribute and then the ISO file version ibm-DPOD-STD-APPL-1.0.2.0-2016-11-15_03_50_10_731-IST-BLD212.iso



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

MonTierUpdateInstaller.sh -u DPOD-update-<version number>.sfs -s DPOD-update-<version number>.md5

For example:

MonTierUpdateInstaller.sh -u DPOD-update-1_3_0.sfs -s DPOD-update-1_3_0.md5

You may encounter the following message:

INFO file MonTierUpdateInstaller.sh was updated successfully.
INFO important !!! Please run MonTierUpdateInstaller.sh again.

This message means that the MonTierUpdateInstaller.sh was updated and you should rerun the command.
After running the command again you will be prompted to confirm the software update process. press "Y" to confirm or "N" to abort.
