2 Upgrading to IBM Resiliency Orchestration Server 7.3 SP3 P2 to 8.0

This section describes how to upgrade IBM Resiliency Orchestration 7.3 SP3 P2 to IBM Resiliency Orchestration Server 8.0.

Note: If your current installation is 7.3 SP3, you will need to apply 7.3 SP3 P2 patch before upgrading to 8.0.

2.1 Overview

The IBM Resiliency Orchestration Application is enhanced for encrypted communication between the IBM Resiliency Orchestration and the Agents. The Site Controller is enabled to be installed alongside the IBM Resiliency Orchestration.

Ensure that you read, understand, and then follow the procedures in the sequence they are indicated to be performed:

1. Prerequisites

2. Preparing for Upgrade

3. Use the installer in GUI or silent mode for the upgrade.

a. For upgrading via GUI mode, refer to the section Upgrading the IBM Resiliency Orchestration Application software to 8.0 in the GUI mode.

b. For upgrading via silent mode, refer to the section Upgrading the IBM Resiliency Orchestration Application software in Silent Mode.

4. Post installation tasks

2.2 Prerequisites for upgrading to 8.0 for Silent and GUI Mode Upgrade

? Platform prerequisite for the upgrade

a. Operating System : RHEL 7.4/7.5/7.6

b. Database : MariaDB 10.2.17

c. Tomcat : 9.0.12

? If you are planning to upgrade an existing Resiliency Orchestration server RHEL Operating system or new server hardware, ensure that you maintain the same IP for the IBM Resiliency Orchestration Application as in the existing installation.

? The upgrade should be performed only when all the groups are in "Normal Inactive" or "Normal Reset" state.

? No operations/workflows should be executing during the upgrade process. If NormalCopy/FailOver/ SwitchOver/SwitchBack or any Business Process/Test/Policy is in progress, it should be completed, stopped, or aborted so that the group can be moved to Normal Inactive state. Use

"Change continuity" option to move the group to "Normal Inactive" or "Normal Reset".

a. Staging Server (Linux, CentOS) for Linux endpoints and Staging Server (Windows) for Windows endpoints, are used to mount the IBM COS as a file system. This is required for Cyber Resiliency Platform. You need to install S3FS packages on Staging Server to enable the integration.

Perform the following steps to install COS certificate

1. For Windows

i. Copy COS key and put in C:\certificate.cer. Double click on this file and complete the wizard

ii. Import certificate into java security cacerts file usinig keytool command. keytool -import -keystore $EMSROOT\jre\lib\security\cacerts -file C:\certificate.cer a) Stop the RO server.

iii. Restart the local Windows OS agent from services (not the site controller)

iv. Restart Staging Server v. Start RO server

2. For Linux

i. Copy COS key and put in /tmp/certificate.cer.

ii. import certificate into java security cacerts file usinig keytool command.

keytool -import -keystore $EMSROOT/jre/lib/security/cacerts -file /tmp/certificate.cer

iii. Restart the local Linux OS agent

2.3 Preparing for upgrading to 8.0

1. Stop the IBM Resiliency Orchestration Server Services by using the following command: sudo $EAMSROOT/bin/panaces stop

2. Stop all remote agents before upgrade by using the following command: sudo $EAMSROOT/bin/DRMAgentsStop.sh ALL

3. Perform a backup of the IBM Resiliency Orchestration Software and configuration files using the stipulated Backup Plan.

Note: The older metadata having encrypted tables cannot be imported directly to the upgraded MariaDB. The metadata needs to be decrypted before importing.

4. Backup Plan: Take a backup of the following files and directories on a backup server within the network in case a rollback to 7.3 SP3 P2 is required

o IBM Resiliency Orchestration Server MariaDB Metadata

o mysqldump ?databases panaces pfr -R --triggers > /opt/backup/metadata.sql

o Take EAMSROOT, and TOMCAT Home folder backup (replace $EAMSROOT,$TOMCAT_HOME with absolute path)

cd /opt

mkdir backup

tar -cvzf /opt/backup/panaces.tar.gz $EAMSROOT

cd /opt/

tar

?cvzf

$TOMCAT_HOME

/opt/backup/tomcat.tar.gz

User files, if any

o If IBM Resiliency Orchestration Server is configured with Linux OS agent:

Agent Binaries

Custom/Field Specific scripts
