Deployment Guide
Important: Backup the databases prior to upgrade, either by using “7db backup” command or 7BUtool.sh
utility script.
When upgrading to 8.2, you must install 7signal-DB2 and 7signal-DBMS RPMs:
● Installing DB2 by using 7signal-DB2 RPM does not actually install the DB2, but it updates RPM
database, and all future dependencies will be handled correctly by RPM.
● Installing DBMS by using 7signal-DBMS will upgrade the existing installation (made by using
proprietary binary installer)
Step 1: Install DB2
Issue command:
# yum install 7signal-DB2-10.5.5-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
The command outputs:
DB2 is already installed
Step 2: Install DBMS
Issue command:
# yum install 7signal-DBMS-8.2.0.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
Step 3: Upgrade DBMS from 8.1 to 8.2 level
