Chapter 9 Upgrading Your System
Runtime Object State
Runtime object state consists of configuration data and binary executables. An
upgrade process converts the format of runtime object to the current version
(1.3.0/3.1.5). The locations of runtime object state are:
• TIBCO Host Instance
— SystemHost
BPM_CONFIG_HOME/tibcohost/Admin-enterpriseName-serverName
—Standalone CONFIG_HOME/tibcohost/instanceName
• ActiveMatrix Administrator Server CONFIG_HOME/admin/enterpriseName,
contains Administrator server files and the in-process database (if selected as
the Administrator server database).
• BPMNode
CONFIG_HOME/tibcohost/instanceName/nodes/nodeName and
CONFIG_HOME/admin/enterpriseName where,
—
enterpriseName and serverName are the names you specified when you created
the Administrator server,
—
instanceName is the name you specified when you created the TIBCO Host
instance, and
—
nodeName is the name specified when you created the node.
Upgrade Impact
You can upgrade to this version of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM from an existing
installation of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM. No configuration is required prior to an
upgrade and upgrade does not affect any of the configuration of your existing
installation. For example, if an upgrade is performed:
• All existing process instances deployed on your existing installation will still
be available.
• Process instances and work items with a status of In Progress continue to be
processed.
• Configured LDAP containers, users and organization memberships will still
be available.
This section describes the operational impact of upgrading the ActiveMatrix
Administrator Server, nodes (BPMNode), amx.bpm.app application,
ActiveMatrix BPM Database and TIBCO Host instances.
Depending on the size of your system, upgrade can take some time. You should
allow sufficient time for the upgrade to be performed.
