IBM Connection 3.0.1.1 update to CR1

See my notes from installing Cumulative Refreshe 1  (CR1)

I did not make any changes in themes or other LC files so I do not need to backup them, before installation.

IBM page with CR1: http://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21595154&myns=swglotus&mynp=OCSSYGQH&mync=E

  1. It is good idea to make a shapshot of your servers (I made snapshots for my DB and WAS server)
  2. I started DB server and DMGR ... it must be started during installation
  3. I used latest Update installer Download Update Installer 3.0.1.x-IC-Multi-UPDI-20120403 (downloaded from IBM FixCentral).
  4. Ok, after you download Update Installer, delete or backup /opt/IBM/LotusConnections/updateInstaller and extract updateinstaller in  /opt/IBM/LotusConnections/ - it will make folder updateinstaller again. 
  5. Download all (depends what parts of LC did you install) CR jar/zip files in to /opt/IBM/LotusConnections/updateInstaller/fixes. If there are any zip, extract them.
  6. To run /opt/IBM/LotusConnections/updateInstaller/updateWizard.sh add execute permissnion on this file
    1. [root@ic ~]# cd /opt/IBM/LotusConnections/updateInstaller
    2. [root@ic updateInstaller]# chmod +x updateWizard.sh
    3. Make sure you have xserver started - you will be able to run graphic installation wizard.
    4. Setup was home path: [root@ic updateInstaller]# cd /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
    5. Run: [root@ic bin]#. ./setupCmdLine.sh
    6. [root@ic updateInstaller]# cd -
    7. [root@ic updateInstaller]# ./updateWizard.sh
  7. Update Wizard for Lotus Connections 3.0.1.1 will be launched. 
    1. Click NEXT
    2. Select Install updates and make sure there is path in to folder with jar files sfom step 5.
    3. Click NEXT, on Update Selection page, depends on your installation, select what you want to install (In my case wizard selected all). Click NEXT.
    4. I selected "I have not made any changes to IBM Connections application files." >> OK
    5. Fill in your DMGR admin account and password. Click NEXT and wait for Validation success >> Click OK
    6. Click INSTALL and go with your dog for a walk ... it will take some time to install.
    7. After successful update installation start all nodes and node agents and perform a full synchronization to push the update to all nodes.
