Updating from a previous release
manually to upgrade the database after the install is complete.
If you see this message, then:
1. Review the gstdbupgrade.log file and correct the errors.
The gstdbupgrade.log appears in the following directories, by default:
• Solaris: /opt/LGTOnmc/logs
• AIX and Linux: /opt/lgtonmc/logs
•Windows:
NMC_installation_directory \Management\GST\logs
2. Start the database conversion manually:
a. On UNIX:
gstdbupgrade.sh –p NMC_Database_dir -o log_file_directory –b
Backup_NMC_database_dir
where:
– gstdbupgrade.sh appears in the /opt/lgtonmc/sybasa/bin directory on AIX and
Linux by default
– gstdbupgrade.sh appears in the /opt/LGTOnmc/sybasa/bin directory on
Solaris by default.
–
NMC_database_dir is the location of the Console server database. On Aix and
Linux the directory is /opt/lgtonmc/lgto_gstdb. On Solaris the directory is
/opt/LGTOnmc/lgto_gstdb.
– -o
log_file_directory is optional. Use this option to direct the database
conversion log file to an alternate location.
– –b
Backup_NMC_database_dir is optional . Use this option to specify an
alternate location or path for the backup copy of the original NMC database. By
default, the conversion process stores the backup copy in the same location as
the original database.

On UNIX, the Console server 8.1.x software installation completes when a
database conversion fails.
b. On Windows, the installation process prompts you to continue or cancel the
installation when the conversion fails. After you correct the errors in the
gstdbupgrade.log file, try to convert the database in one of the following ways:
– If you cancelled the installation of the NetWorker and Console server software
then install the software again to convert the Console server database.
– If you completed the installation of the NetWorker and Console server software
then run gstdbupgrade.exe located in
NMC_installation_directory \Management\GST\sybasa\bin to manually convert
the database.
