For details of updates and fixes provided with this pack
A Consolidated PPM is made available for this Service Pack.
It can be used for all the three supported platform installations,
i.e., Windows, Linux, and Solaris.
It can be used for all the three types of installations,
i.e., Combined (BE+FE+Client), FE, Application Client, and
WebNMS Framework RME (Central Server and Distributed Mediation Server).
It can also be installed over Japanese and Chinese versions
of WebNMS Framework.
The configuration files update (using ConfigurationUpdater.bat/sh)
and the compilation of JSP files (using compileJSP.bat/sh) processes
are invoked automatically by the Update Manager, making the update
process much simpler.
Changes done by you in the Configuration files are retained
during Service Packs. The Service Pack update process ensures
that it maintains the customization that have been done in the
Configuration files. In case of any modification in the Configuration
file by WebNMS Framework during a Service Pack, it is taken care that
the changes are appended to your existing Configuration files
and not overwritten.
Source files bundled with the product namely JSPs, Servlets,
Example (.java) files, and default implementations (.java files)
are overwritten. In case you have modified any of those, then
you need to merge the changes with the ones done for the Service
Pack. If you want to know the exact changes done for the Service
Pack, please contact us at nms-support@webnms.com.
Before installing the service pack, ensure to uninstall the
Studio NARs that you have installed (if any).
If your application uses HTML UI, update the database with the
latest entries of Tree.xml (present in <WebNMS Framework Home>/html/defaultsToNewUsers
directory or <WebNMS Framework Home>/users directory>)
using DBXmlTool.bat/sh present in <WebNMS Framework Home>/bin
directory. This is to ensure that the enhanced
pages of web client are displayed in your browser.
