Performing an Upgrade of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM
On the machine that requires upgrading, do the following:
1. Install TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM using the Install BPM, Administrator &
TIBCO Host profile; see Installing the Product on page 46 for details. During
installation, ensure that you select the following to successfully upgrade your
system:
—In the TIBCO Installation Home dialog, select Choose an Existing
TIBCO_HOME. Browse to the existing installation directory of the TIBCO
ActiveMatrix BPM that you want to upgrade.
— Choose to run TIBCO Configuration Tool, so make sure that Launch
TIBCO Configuration Tool is checked before clicking Finish to install
TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM.
2. Restart all instances of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM after the installation
completes.
3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the location of your upgrade file,
for example
\bpm\1.3\scripts\upgrade
4. Run the following:
upgrade all tct_output_folder
where tct_output_folder is the TIBCO Configuration Folder that stores the
scripts that are generated by TIBCO Configuration Tool. For example,
\tct\bpm\date-time\scripts where date-time is the date and time the
scripts were created when you first installed TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM.
This section describes performing an upgrade using the upgrade all command.
However, you can run the upgrade scripts individually, see The upgrade Utility,
page 179.
Depending on the configuration and the number of applications deployed,
upgrade can take varying amounts of time to complete.
For example, upgrading a lightly-loaded, single node could take about an hour.
And a lightly-loaded, high availability system could take anything in the range of
2 - 3 hours to complete.
Ensure that you allow sufficient time for the upgrade to be completed.
