20.4 Running the Cloud Manager Configuration Script

After you have successfully installed the new Cloud Manager 2.5 package, you must configure that package by running the Cloud Manager configuration script. The upgrade installer saves all current configuration data. You can use this configuration data to facilitate a system recovery.

To configure the updated Application Server packages:

At the command line, run the following command:

/opt/netiq/cloudmanager/configurator/config

The configurator script recognizes that a new version of Cloud Manager is installed and prompts with the following text:

Welcome to the NetIQ Cloud Manager configuration utility.
 
    One or more products on this system require an upgrade.
 
    Select whether to perform the required upgrade to an existing configuration
    (upgrade), or to run the new install configuration (install) for a product.
 
u) upgrade
i) install
- - - - - -
 
Selection [upgrade]:

Specify u to indicate that this is an upgrade for Cloud Manager, then press Enter.
Specify the name of the PostgreSQL administrator, then press Enter.

This must be the same PostgreSQL user name that you specified in the previous Cloud Manager installation.
Specify the password for the PostgreSQL administrator, then press Enter.

This must be the same PostgreSQL password that you specified in the previous Cloud Manager installation.
(Conditional, if you have backed up the PostgreSQL database, as explained in Backing Up the PostgreSQL Database). Specify yes to indicate that you have backed up the PostgreSQL database, then press Enter.
After the configuration summary is displayed, specify yes to start the configuration process.
Start Cloud Manager Services:
```
/etc/init.d/netiq/cloudmanager start
```

You can start Cloud Manager Services when the configuration process is complete.

NOTE:If you start Cloud Manager services after you have upgraded the package but before you have configured the upgrade, Cloud Manager displays an error.

The settings you specify in the configuration file are recorded in /etc/opt/netiq/cloudmanager/netiq_cloudmanager_config.conf. You can find a log file of the actual configuration process at /var/opt/netiq/cloudmanager/logs/netiq_cloudmanager_config.log.

After the Cloud Manager Application Server 2.4 is upgraded to Cloud Manager Application Server 2.5, you can roll back to Cloud Manager Application Server 2.4 if failures occur on the upgraded system. See Section A.0, Restoring Cloud Manager Application Server in the Event of a System Failure.
