If you updated to Connections 6.0 CR3 or later, and want to expand the use of Connections
Engagement Center throughout Connections by upgrading to a full version of the Engagement Center,
follow these steps. This upgrade installs a license and adjusts a setting to provide the necessary
configuration.
Before you begin
Note: You must first purchase a license for the full version of IBM Connections Engagement
Center.
Procedure
- Download the Connections Engagement Center 6.0.2 upgrade program from the Passport Advantage
site.
- Open and edit the install602.properties file, adding the values for your
server.
- If upgrading on single-node server, make sure that you specify
serverName and nodeName.
- If upgrading in a clustered environment, make sure that you specify
clusterName.
- Verify that Deployment Manager is running and that the SOAP port that connects it to wasadmin
is correct.
- Open the wasadmin.properties file located in the NODE_PROFILE_HOME/properties directory.
- Find the port number specified for the com.ibm.ws.scripting.port property.
By default the port number is 8879.
- If the port number specified is different than 8879, make a note of the number. Then edit the
upgrade program file for your operating system, replacing "-port 8879" with the port number that you
found:
- On Windows, edit the ICECInstaller_Windows.bat file.
- On Linux, edit the ICECInstaller_Linux.sh file.
- On AIX, edit the ICECInstaller_AIX.ksh file.
- Run the upgrade program:
- On Windows, open the command prompt, navigate to this directory, and run
ICECInstaller_Windows.bat.
- On Linux, open the terminal, navigate to this directory, and run
ICECInstaller_Linux.sh.
- On AIX, open the terminal, navigate to this directory, and run
ICECInstaller_AIX.ksh.
- Once the installation completes, the Connections Engagement Center app is ready for use. There
is no need to restart it.
