Fix Pack 1 Installation

Post by Sreedhar »

Hi,

I tried to upgrade Data stage from 8.1 to 8.1.1 FP1. I ended up with Partial Success. The reason for the same was, one of the file was in use. Not sure what went wrong.

Any Ideas?
Regards,
Shree

Yes. Because one of the file was in use.

Why not give more information on the steps you took, the last successful activity, Unix type and version, failure / error message etc ?

Unix Type : AIX V 6
Initiated the update from /opt/IBM/InformationServer//Updates/bin/InstallUpdate.sh(Could be different in some cases)


Errror message
com.ascential.dstage.compinstall.CIException: Installation of package [/opt/IBM/InformationServer/v81/Server/StagingArea/temp/pxc_rtiout.jar] failed when the following errors were encountered:
Caused by: com.ascential.dstage.compinstall.CIException: Could not open file [/opt/IBM/InformationServer/v81/Server/DSComponents/bin/orchrtiout.o] for writing.
Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /opt/IBM/InformationServer/v81/Server/DSComponents/bin/orchrtiout.o (Text file busy)

How do I know before starting the installation on which file is in use or not?

Let me know if you need any further information.
Regards,
Shree

Once you are certain that all users are out (Active sessions in web portal) and that all jobs are stopped (cehck Director or look for "phantom" processes at UNIX level) I usually "bounce" DataStage quickly to insure everything is closed.

You could also check file locks with fuser.
E.g.

Code: Select all

 fuser -Vcu $DSHOME
