Complete the following steps:
Note: Do not remove/uninstall JazzSM during this process.
Note: Do not remove/uninstall JazzSM during this process.
1. Use the provided tools to create preservation zip files on Linux/AIX.
The tool (e.g. <FP_dir>/tools/backupGA.sh) provided in Linux and AIX fix packs can be used to create the temporary files (e.g. <JazzSM>/ui/temp/*.zip), before an immediate re-install of Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI. The configuration and data will be preserved when the current version of Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI is uninstalled, and automatically restored after the next installation of Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI.
This tool must be executed by the user who installed Web GUI 8.1. It is specifically designed and supported for customers with the June 2014 GA version (build 493) of Web GUI 8.1 on Linux/AIX platforms only, in order to update to the September 2014 GA version (build 615) of Web GUI 8.1 or to this Fix Pack.
Run the following command to execute this tool:
<FP_dir>/tools/backupGA.sh -dash <DASH_HOME> -webgui<OMNIBUS_WEBGUI>
<FP_dir>/tools/backupGA.sh -dash <DASH_HOME> -webgui<OMNIBUS_WEBGUI>
For example, with the default install directories on a Linux/AIX system:
<FP_dir>/tools/backupGA.sh -dash /opt/IBM/JazzSM/ui -webgui /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui
<FP_dir>/tools/backupGA.sh -dash /opt/IBM/JazzSM/ui -webgui /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui
2. Manual backup of Web GUI 8.1 June 2014 GA version (build 493), see section (4).
3. Uninstall Web GUI 8.1 June 2014 GA version (build 493), see section (7).
4. Complete the steps in section (2) or as outlined in section 1.2 scenario (a).
4. Complete the steps in section (2) or as outlined in section 1.2 scenario (a).
Addition notes:
---------------
- A roll back to previous versions will be available if the "update" facility was used, rather than "install" from the Installation Manager.
- In GUI mode, the launch page to Post-installation configuration tool will not be available for an update, but is available for a new install.
- If the steps in section 1.2 scenario c) are not followed when updating an existing Web GUI 8.1 June 2014 GA version (build 493) installation to this Fix Pack, a failed installation will result. To recover perform one of the following steps:
(a) manual restore, see section (5)
(b) uninstall the Web GUI, see section (7)

2. Update an existing Web GUI 8.1 installation to Web GUI 8.1 Fix Pack
======================================================================
======================================================================
The update of the existing Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI, includes the in-place upgrade that would preserve the current configuration and data. In case of an issue occurred that cannot be resolved, a manual restore back to a pre-fix pack state may be needed, see section (5), thus a manual backup is strongly recommended for this purpose, see section (4).
After the update installation over an existing installation, there won't be a launch page to execute the post-installation configuration tool. This is working as designed because the configuration is not required and already preserved.
After a successful update installation, a roll back to a previous Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI version will be supported, where the current configuration and data will be preserved. Note: This is not necessarily the same as the data in pre-fix pack state.

====================================================================================
====================================================================================
This method can be used if the roll-back process fails. This would roll back to a pre-fix pack state, the backed-up instance as created by follow the instruction in section (4).
1. Stop the Websphere Application Server.
2. Rename the Web GUI, JazzSM and Websphere Application Server directories as follows:
Example:
o On UNIX and Linux:
mv /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui.old
mv /opt/IBM/JazzSM /opt/IBM/JazzSM.old
mv /opt/IBM/WebSphere /opt/IBM/WebSphere.old
Example:
o On UNIX and Linux:
mv /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui /opt/IBM/netcool/omnibus_webgui.old
mv /opt/IBM/JazzSM /opt/IBM/JazzSM.old
mv /opt/IBM/WebSphere /opt/IBM/WebSphere.old
o On Windows:
rename C:\IBM\netcool\omnibus_webgui C:\IBM\netcool\omnibus_webgui.old
rename C:\Program Files\IBM\JazzSM C:\IBM\JazzSM.old
rename C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere C:\IBM\WebSphere.old
rename C:\IBM\netcool\omnibus_webgui C:\IBM\netcool\omnibus_webgui.old
rename C:\Program Files\IBM\JazzSM C:\IBM\JazzSM.old
rename C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere C:\IBM\WebSphere.old
3. Use a suitable archive utility to restore the content of the following files to their original locations:
o On UNIX and Linux:
omnibus_webgui.tar
JazzSM.tar
AppServer.tar
omnibus_webgui.tar
JazzSM.tar
AppServer.tar
o On Windows:
omnibus_webgui.zip
JazzSM.zip
AppServer.zip
omnibus_webgui.zip
JazzSM.zip
AppServer.zip
4. Start the WebSphere Application Server.
6. Rolling back using Installation Manager
==========================================
==========================================
This method can be used if the fix pack was installed by using the "update" facility provided by Installation Manager. This would roll back to the previous Web GUI version with current configuration and data preserved.
Note: If the previous WAS-SDK (v7.0.x, v7.1.x, or v8.0.x) is used and removed, then it must be reinstalled before perform any rollback.
1. Change to the "eclipse" sub-directory of the Installation Manager installation directory and use the following command to start Installation Manager:
o UNIX / Linux: ./IBMIM
o Windows: IBMIM.exe
o Windows: IBMIM.exe
2. Select "Roll Back" from the main menu.
3. Select the package group within which you installed the Web GUI and click "Next".
4. Select the version of the package to roll back to.
5. Read the summary information and click "Roll Back" to roll back the package.
7. Uninstall Web GUI
====================
====================
It is possible to uninstall Web GUI from the current installed version.
1 Uninstall Web GUI, using Installation Manager
If configuration and data preservation are required, please check section 1.2c.Please refer to the online instruction to uninstall Web GUI
2 Clean up the installed directory and files
These are required to be removed, if a new Web GUI is to be installed
These are required to be removed, if a new Web GUI is to be installed
o <omnibus_webgui>
o <OMNIbusWebGUI.war>
o <OMNIbusWebGUI.war>
These are required to be removed, if exists, where configuration and data preservation are not required.
o <JazzSM_HOME>/ui/temp/*.zip

Netcool Operations Insight Extensions for IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI has been enhanced to add an analytical capability to be able to identify correlated events and group them as parent-child in the Event Viewer.
Related Event Analytics uses statistical analysis of IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus historical event data to determine which events have a statistical tendency to occur together. The results of this analysis are output on a scheduled basis as event groups. You can use the related events UI to analyze these event groups. Validated event groups can be deployed with a single click as Netcool/Impact correlation rules, without the need to write any code. Correlation rules that are generated in this way act on real-time event data to show a single synthetic event for the events in the event group. All events in the group are presented as children of this synthetic event, with that decreasing the number of events that are presented to your operations staff in the Event Viewer.

Web GUI view. However, this can happen if the user configures a DASH table widget based on a particular Web GUI view, and then later on removes a column from the view. In this instance, the DASH widget continues to request information for the now-missing column.
This results in Web GUI throwing an exception, resulting in many stack traces in the DASH/TIP log file - potentially hundreds per minute, depending on how much data is in the dataset, for which the widget requires data.
If there are thousands as there can be then there is a slim chance of a performance degradation.

Inefficiencies in the workflow of the datasource thread connection pool are leading to hung threads when WebGUI issues a sustained high number of queries to the object server.
Two issues have been identified:
1) The retry logic. Threads are trying twice to make a connection to the datasource primary before failing over. The second try is doubling the waiting time and is unnecessary.
2) Synchronisation. Closed connections to the object server are sometimes neither being returned to the connection pool nor passed to waiting queries.

Short Description: NEW EVENTS PATTERN ENHANCEMENTS TO EVENT ANALYTICS CAPABILITY IN WEB GUI EXTENSION OFFERING
Summary:
Netcool Operations Insight Extensions for IBM Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus Web GUI has been enhanced to provide the "Events Pattern" feature. "Events Pattern" provides more sophisticated grouping capability than the "Related Events" alone. A pattern describes a set of events that are related (they always occur together), but is not specific to the resource (server, interface etc) that the events occur on. Below are the benefits of using an "Event Pattern":
- Provides grouping of events based on the event type on multiple resources
- Less patterns to manage since it can cover multiple discovered groups
- Can be used to group under most important event in the Event Viewer

Short Description: AEL DISPLAY OCCASIONALLY TURNS GREY
Summary:
When the applet is initialized with a transient filter, a new event data refresh thread is spawned as part of the update of the filter drop down. Usually. this takes longer to complete than the rest of the applet initialization, but under certain conditions it does not. Under this condition, the internal list of sort columns does not get updated until the next refresh, which causes a disconnect between the incoming data and the column names.

Summary:
In certain cases (e.g. importing dependent filters from a Web GUI to another), the order of persistence between a dependent filter and its dependencies does not allow to resolve the dependencies for that dependent filter, as the dependencies are persisted after the dependent filter. This causes a failure at de-serialization, where the dependencies cannot be resolved. Both the dependent filter and any dependency will be loaded, but the relationship between the dependent filter and its dependencies is lost.

When there are large number of events that causes the timeline chart to show scrollbars, and when the user scrolls down the list, the scale at the top scrolls out of the view. This makes is slightly difficult to understand the deviation of events from the pivot event.We have now made the scale fixed so that the scale is still visible when user is scrolling down the timeline chart.
In the previous release the scale on the timeline chart used to show the time as hh:mm:ss, now it to shows the time in either hours,minutes or seconds depending on the deviation of other events from the pivot event. Additionally, have also provided some help tooltip which makes it easier to understand the timeline chart

Short Description: THE "ALL" VS "ANY" LOGIC IN TOOL DEFINITION FORMS DOES NOT DISTINGUISH BETWEEN TOP LEVEL AND NESTED CONDITIONS
Summary:
The fix introduced by APAR IV83183 has a known regression. As it enforces the "ALL" boolean operator for all access criteria and all multiple values, it fixes an issue where the "!=" operator would not be applied to all values in conjunction with the "ALL" boolean operator. However, with the "=" equality operator, that fix would evaluate all values with "ALL", which does not make sense since a given event will only have one value.

Short Description: NON-ADMIN USER CAN MODIFY GLOBAL VIEW EVEN THOUGH USERS.GLOBAL.VIEW.MODE IS 0
Summary:
There is a narrow security issue, where a non-administrative user (with no "ncw_admin" role) can be made able to edit a global view, even if the "users.global.view.mode" property is set to 0 in the "server.init" file (it does default to 1).

When the "users.global.view.mode" property is set to 0, non-administrative users are not supposed to be able to edit and save global views.
However, due to an error in the conversion of the view type in the editor forms, there is a way for a non-administrative user to edit a global view anyway.

Short Description: FIELD ACCESS CRITERIA INCORRECTLY APPLIED
Summary:
The "any" VS "all" boolean operator (equivalent to boolean "AND" vs "OR") used to define the behavior of access criteria does not apply to multiple values for a given access criterion.
The "any" VS "all" boolean operator (equivalent to boolean "AND" vs "OR") used to define the behavior of access criteria does not apply to multiple values for a given access criterion.
Therefore, given a "Class" multi-value of "X" and "Y", with the non-equality operator set ("!=") and the "ALL" boolean operator set, a tool will still be available in the Event Viewer if it has either Class X or Y, because the evaluation treats the values as "ANY" (read: if the event has class "X", the condition for "not class Y" applies and returns true, and vice-versa).
This fix ensures that the "ALL" boolean operator is evaluated for multiple values as well.
There is a known regression, with the "=" equality operator: since an event can't have multiple values for a given field (e.g. "Class"), when "ALL" and "=" is used in the same access control, applying to multiple field values, the tool will not be available for any given event.
This regression is addressed by internal APAR IV84185, in which a multi-valued field will automatically apply the "any" condition regardless of the actual setting, only if the "=" equality operator is set.
See also a documentation APAR (IV84592), to amend the information on the following page:
[https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSHTQ_8.1.0/com.ibm.netcool_OMNIbus.doc_8.1.0/webtop/wip/task/web_cust_createtools.html?lang=en]
[https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSHTQ_8.1.0/com.ibm.netcool_OMNIbus.doc_8.1.0/webtop/wip/task/web_cust_createtools.html?lang=en]
The reason for the DOC APAR is that AEL is not compatible with the "!=" operator, whereas Event Viewer supports both "=" and "!=". The documentation will also update to reflect the functional changes as per APARs IV83183 (this APAR) and IV84185.

Due to changes in DASH theme names, the style resources Web GUI fetches in a number of server pages are not present anymore.
This in turn is intercepted at servlet filter level and fills the logs with FileNotFoundException s at each page load (e.g. Event Viewer, Event Properties, etc.). There is no regression on the visual side, as the inherited style somehow palliates for the lack of specific resources, and this does not disrupt Web GUI's functionality in any noticeable way.

Web GUI needs to store a request state in order to populate the arguments given by a prompt back into a tool prior to execution.
Under some circumstances, this request does not match WebSphere's internal mappings anymore due to a change of context, which crashes WebSphere's internal session retrieval, and ultimately prevents the tool from executing.

Short Description: LINES LIGHTWEIGHT MAPS ARE DISPLAYED INCORRECTLY
Summary:
The framework used to render Lightweight Maps (SVG) will move a line on the X axis based on a specific algorithm.
The framework used to render Lightweight Maps (SVG) will move a line on the X axis based on a specific algorithm.
This algorithm is not particularly well documented at the time of writing, and the resulting transformation might appear as arbitrary - it also does not match the algorithm used by applet-based Maps.
The required transformation uses different factors for lines, resulting in different algorithms:
* whether the line is "active" (representing a filter) or "static"
* whether the line is thicker than 3 pixels
* whether the line is vertical, horizontal, or oblique
* whether the line is thicker than 3 pixels
* whether the line is vertical, horizontal, or oblique
The fix generally ensures that lines drawn for maps originally designed to be displayed in applet mode render as close as possible to the original in Lightweight maps.

Short Description: PROBLEM EDITING FILTERS IN TIP HA CONFIGURATION
Summary:
Under certain arbitrary circumstances (e.g. too many applications deployed in the server), the number of files scanned by the JPA transformation hook in the classpath is excessive, and will cause Web GUI's persistence configuration to fail upon startup.
Under certain arbitrary circumstances (e.g. too many applications deployed in the server), the number of files scanned by the JPA transformation hook in the classpath is excessive, and will cause Web GUI's persistence configuration to fail upon startup.
In turn, this will prevent any modification to the elements that are synced by the High Availability framework, such as filters, views, etc. as the synchronization doesn't work (the persistence entities are not enhanced, therefore they aren't recognized by the JPA implementation).

Short Description: REMOVE GLOBALIZATION OF EVENT VIEWER'S KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS WHILE MAINTAINING GLOBALIZATION OF MENU MNEMONICS
Summary:
The origin of the issue is the fact that menu mnemonics and keyboard shortcuts were bound together at development phase. While it's obviously expected for menu mnemonics to localize, as they have to reference the first letter of a localized menu item, it does obviously not make much sense for keyboard shortcuts themselves.
