Installation information
Prior to installation
You can reduce the amount of disk space required for the backup of the <apm_install_dir>/wlp directory by performing this cleanup before installing the interim fix:
- Delete the <apm_install_dir>/wlp-backup-04 directory if it exists to free up disk space. This directory was created by a previous Cloud APM server interim fix install and is not needed if you are installing the latest interim fix.
- Delete the <apm_install_dir>/wlp-backup-05 directory if it exists to free up disk space. This directory was created by a previous Cloud APM server interim fix install and is not needed if you are installing the latest interim fix.
- Delete the <apm_install_dir>/wlp-backup-06 directory if it exists to free up disk space. This directory was created by a previous Cloud APM server interim fix install and is not needed if you are installing the latest interim fix.
- Delete the <apm_install_dir>/wlp-backup-07 directory if it exists to free up disk space. This directory was created by a previous Cloud APM server interim fix install and is not needed if you are installing the latest interim fix.
- Delete file with names that start with javacore, heapdump or core in the <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/apmui, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/dqe, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/min, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/server1, and <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/uviews directories
- Delete file with names that start with trace_ and messages_ in the <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/apmui/logs, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/dqe/logs, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/min/logs, <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/server1/logs directories, and <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/uviews/logs directories.
5. If you have installed the Cloud APM Liberty data collector to monitor the Cloud APM server Liberty processes (apmui, server1, min, oidc, dqe, or uviews), unconfigure the data collector before applying the Cloud APM server interim fix. See the Cloud APM Documentation for the Liberty data collector at this link: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/capmp/8.1.4?topic=environment-configuring-liberty-monitoring
The APM server interim fix updates Liberty to version 22.0.0.3. If you want to configure the Liberty data collector again after the Cloud APM server interim fix is installed then ensure you are using a version of the data collector that supports Liberty version 22.0.0.3.
Also do not enable diagnostics or transaction tracking for the data collector since that may impact the Cloud APM server performance.
6. If you have installed the Cloud APM WebSphere Applications agent to monitor the Cloud APM server Liberty processes then unconfigure the data collector before installing the Cloud APM server interim fix. See this Cloud APM Documentation topic for instructions on unconfiguring the data collector: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/capmp/8.1.4?topic=agents-websphere-applications-agent-unconfiguring-data-collector.
The APM server interim fix updates Liberty to version 22.0.0.3. If your agent version does not support Liberty version 22.0.0.3 then upgrade the WebSphere Applications agent to the latest version and then configure the updated data collector to monitor the Cloud APM server Liberty processes. See this link to determine the minimum agent version required for Liberty version 22.0.0.3: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/879851.
Also do not enable diagnostics or transaction tracking for the WebSphere Applications agent since that may impact the Cloud APM server performance.
configure_server_address.sh
You are prompted for the following values:
- Fully qualified domain name, for example: myserver.example.com.
- Short host name, for example: myserver
- IP address
If the message lists the configured rate as 300.0 and the message is being logged frequently then the Cloud APM server will start saving more transaction data after the interim fix is installed if your environment is sized as a medium or large environment. So confirm that your environment meets the requirements described in this Cloud APM Documentation topic:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/capmp/8.1.4?topic=requirements-cloud-apm-server-hardware
9. Ensure Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.2 or later is installed on the Cloud APM server so that the OS supports an unlimited command line length.
Installing
Installing the IBM Cloud Application Performance Management Server update
- As the root user, download 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-SERVER-IF0013.tar from IBM Fix Central to a temporary local directory (e.g. /tmp/IF13-patch) on the computer where you installed the Cloud APM server. The root user must have read/write access to the directory.
- Check if the <apm_install_dir>/ccm/fixes directory exists. If the directory exists then enter this command to get the list of Cloud APM server interim fixes that are already installed:
ls server* - Enter the following command if the Cloud APM 8.1.4.0 IF0003 or later server interim fix is not already installed and you have agents connected:
<apm_install_dir>/kafka/bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper 127.0.0.1:2181 --topic alarm.enriched.json --alter --config retention.ms=300000
- Note: The command displays this message:
WARNING: Altering topic configuration from this script has been deprecated and may be removed in future releases. Going forward, please use kafka-configs.sh for this functionality
Updated config for topic "alarm.enriched.json".
- If you see the message "kafka-run-class.sh: line 243: exec: java: not found" then enter the following command and then run the kafka-topics.sh script again:
export JAVA_HOME=<apm_install_dir>/java/jre
- Note: The command displays this message:
- Change your current directory to the download location, e.g.
cd /tmp/IF13-patch
- Expand the archive file using the tar command e.g.
tar -xf 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-SERVER-IF0013.tar
- Run the script apmpatch.sh:
cd 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-SERVER-IF0013
./apmpatch.sh - Review the final messages displayed by the apmpatch.sh script that list the number of component patches that were installed successfully or that failed installation. If any component patches failed to install then see Troubleshooting interim fix installation problems.
- Wait a couple of minutes and then enter the following command if the Cloud APM 8.1.4.0 IF0003 or later server interim fix was not already installed and you had agents connected:
<apm_install_dir>/kafka/bin/kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper 127.0.0.1:2181 --topic alarm.enriched.json --alter --config retention.ms=14400000
Performing the necessary tasks after installation
1. If you install Cloud APM Advanced Private, consider installing the latest interim fixes for the soagent service and biagent service of the Cloud APM server so you have the latest updates for those components. Also update the core framework used by the APM server agents. These updates are not required for this Cloud APM server interim fix but will ensure you have the latest changes and security fixes.
- To find the latest updates for the soagent service (Synthetic Events agent interim fix), search Fix Central for 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-SYNTHETIC-EVENTS
- To find the latest updates for the biagent service (Bluemix Integration agent), search Fix Central for 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-BLUEMIXINTEGRATION-AGENT
- To find the latest core framework interim fix, search Fix Central for 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-CORE-FRAMEWORK-IF and choose the latest interim fix that applies to Cloud APM. Then install the agent side core framework interim fix in the <apm_install_dir>/serveragents directory to update the core framework used by the Cloud APM server agents (the soagent service, biagent service, and txagent service). If you have agents running on Windows systems, and have not yet upgraded those agents to 8.1.4.0.17 or newer, then do not upgrade the core framework past 8.1.4.0-IBM-APM-CORE-FRAMEWORK-IF21. Once the agents packages are upgraded to 8.1.4.0.17 or newer, then the latest core framework can also be installed.
2. After you have verified that the Cloud APM server is working with the new interim fix, you can delete the <apm_install_dir>/wlp-backup-08 directory to free up disk space.
6a. If Cloud APM server is using a local DB2 database OR the database server is remote and the Cloud APM server admin knows the DB2 instance password then perform this procedure on the Cloud APM server:
-
./setdbschema.sh -U db2apm -P <password> -f 814if03
-
cd <apm_install_dir>/ccm/SCR/XMLtoolkit/bin
6b. Else If the Cloud APM server is using a remote DB2 and only the DB2 administrator knows the DB2 instance password then ask the DB2 administrator to perform this procedure on the DB2 server:
- Login as the DB2 instance user for the Cloud APM databases
- db2 connect to scr32
- db2 "DROP TABLESPACE TBSMCFG16KTS_TEMP"
- db2 disconnect scr32
8a. Copy the <patch-install-directory>/patches/inst/scr/scr.tar file from the Cloud APM server to a directory on the remote Db2 server. Ensure the Db2 instance user has access to the directory.
8b. Execute these steps on the remote Db2 server:
Note: the instructions below assume that
- db2apm is the Db2 instance user for the Cloud APM databases. Replace db2apm with your Db2 instance user if you are using a different instance user
- /home/db2/tbsmdb is the directory where you installed the Cloud APM SCR database tools using the
setup-dbconfig-operating_system_64.bin when the databases were created. If you used the default path,
/opt/IBM/tivoli/tbsmdb, or another path, specify it in place of /home/db2/tbsmdb in the instructions below.
su - db2apm
cd to the directory where you copied the scr.tar file
tar -xvf scr.tar
chmod 755 scr.sh
chmod 755 inst/scr/*.sh
./scr.sh PREPARE /home/db2apm/tbsmdb 2>&1 | tee scr-if8-prepare.out
./scr.sh INSTALL /home/db2apm/tbsmdb 2>&1 | tee scr-if8-install.out
cd /home/db2apm/tbsmdb/bin
./tbsm_db.sh -s sc -U db2apm -f j
Edit ../logs/db2_stdout.log and verify that there were no errors dropping the old functions, installing the jars, and creating the functions.
Note: The following error messages are okay in the db2_stdout.log file since the new jar filenames do not exist yet.
--- CALL SQLJ.REMOVE_JAR( '<name>_apm_jar')
--- SQL20201N The install, replace or remove of "TBSMUDF .<name>_APM_JAR" failed as the jar name is invalid. SQLSTATE=46002
- cd <apm_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/uviews/utility
- ./rescueDashboards.sh
Note: if you customized the apmadmin password during the Cloud APM server installation, use the customized password in place of apmpass in the steps below.
- Enter the following command to get the current value of the Cognos Reporting Requires XSS Validation config property:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -X GET https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrXssCheckingEnabled
Note: The command returns a JSON string that looks similar to the one below but may have a different value for the value property if you had customized the config property on the Advanced Configuration page before applying the interim fix.
{"duplicated":false,"uivisibility":false,"encrypted":false,"readonly":false,"datatype":"BOOLEAN","name":"tcrXssCheckingEnabled","value":false,"cfgrequired":false,"uiorder":20}
- Save the JSON string from the response and change "uivisibility":false to "uivisibility":true in the saved string
- Enter the following command to make the Cognos Reporting URL config property visible on the Advanced Configuration page:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT -d 'JSON-string' https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrXssCheckingEnabled
where JSON-string should be replaced with the JSON string that was modified in the previous step. For example:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT -d '{"duplicated":false,"uivisibility":true,"encrypted":false,"readonly":false,"datatype":"BOOLEAN","name":"tcrXssCheckingEnabled","value":false,"cfgrequired":false,"uiorder":20}' https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrXssCheckingEnabled
- Enter the following command to get the current value of the Cognos Reporting URL config property:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -X GET https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrReportsUrl
The command returns a JSON string that looks similar to the one below but may have a different value for the value property if you had customized the config property before applying the interim fix:
{"duplicated":false,"uivisibility":false,"encrypted":false,"readonly":false,"datatype":"STRING","name":"tcrReportsUrl","value":"","cfgrequired":false,"uiorder":10}
- Save the JSON string from the response and change "uivisibility":false to "uivisibility":true in the saved string.
- Enter the following command to make the Cognos Reporting Requires XSS Validation config property visible on the Advanced Configuration page:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT -d 'JSON-string' https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrReportsUrl
where JSON-string should be replaced with the JSON string that was modified in the previous step. For example:
curl -k -u smadmin:apmpass -v -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT -d '{"duplicated":false,"uivisibility":true,"encrypted":false,"readonly":false,"datatype":"STRING","name":"tcrReportsUrl","value":"","cfgrequired":false,"uiorder":10}' https://localhost:8091/1.0/monitoring/systemconfig/services/com.ibm.tivoli.ccm.apmui/configitem/tcrReportsUrl
Uninstalling if necessary
Files modified by the interim fix are backed up during the installation. If you encounter an issue with the interim fix and need to back it out then contact IBM support for assistance.
For detailed instructions to uninstall the Cloud APM server, please refer to the IBM Cloud Application Performance Management guide, here:
Troubleshooting interim fix installation problems
The <apm_install_dir>/ccm/logs/apmpatch.log file contains the detailed log messages for the Cloud APM server interim fix installation. The file contains messages for all Cloud APM server interim fixes that have been installed.
dbutils component patch installation issues
If the apmpatch.sh script indicates that a component patch failed to install, search the apmpatch.log file for the text below in the messages for the most recent Cloud APM server interim fix installation:
upgrade_datamart_patch.sh failed
If you find the message above then check for these messages:
output: ERROR: Unable to connect to Datamart database as itmuser using password provided in file /opt/ibm/ccm/properties/install.properties
If you see the message above then confirm that Db2 is running. If Db2 is not running then start Db2 and run the apmpatch.sh script again. When the apmpatch.sh script runs, it will attempt to install the dbutils component patch again.
2. Check for the message below in the install_dir/ccm/logs/Datamart_centralized_upgrade_patch.log file:
The file "db2ats_sps_bnd.log" cannot be opened.. SQLCODE=-35, SQLSTATE=
If you find the message above then the Db2 fence user may own the db2ats_sps_bnd.log file and the Db2 instance user cannot access the file. To recover either rename or delete the db2ats_sps_bnd.log file. Then run the apmpatch.sh again and it will attempt to install the dbutils patch again. The db2ats_sps_bnd.log will be recreated with permissions that allow the Db2 instance user to access it.
Notes:
- The db2ats_sps_bnd.log may be created by the Db2 fence user if that user performs a Db2 rebind before the Db2 instance user can create the file.
- The db2ats_sps_bnd.log file is located under the sqllib/db2dump directory structure for your Db2 instance user on the computer system where Db2 is installed.
All other interim fix installation issues
For all other APM server interim fix installation issues, run the <apm_install_dir>/ccm/collectLogs.sh script and open a case with IBM support. Provide the output file created by the collectLogs.sh script.
