Upgrade Notes
Manually start IDOL to upgrade the reference index
After upgrading to DocuShare 6.6.1, manually start IDOL in order
to upgrade the reference index of the existing data index. Depending on the
size of the current reference index data, startup duration could be lengthy.
For a single instance of IDOL, use the following procedure:
- Stop
DocuShare.
- In a command
window, run AutonomyDiSH.exe.
- Then run
AutonomyIDOLServer.exe. This command starts content.exe.
- Look for the
startup status in ds/IDOLServer/IDOL/logs/content_application.log.
If startup takes longer than 15 minutes to complete, a message that
the AutonomyIDOLServer failed to start appears in the log.
Ignore this message. Content.exe will continue to run.
Startup has finished when the message ACI Server attached to port
9010 appears in the log.
- After the
startup finishes, check the application log for errors.
- If there
are no errors written in the log, do the following:
- Stop
AutonomyIDOLServer.exe and AutonomyDiSH.exe by using Ctrl-C, or the
Task Manager, or kill the processes.
- Start
DocuShare.
- If there
are errors written in the log, do the following:
.
Allow AutonomyDiSH.exe to continue to run or
restart the .exe it if it is not running.
- Stop
AutonomyIDOLServer.exe by using Ctrl-C or by killing the process.
- Edit
ds/IDOLServer/IDOL/AutonomyIDOLServer.cfg by adding RegenerateRefIndex=TRUE
under the [Server] section.
- Manually
start AutonomyIDOLServer.exe and wait for startup to finish.
- When startup
has finished, edit ds/IDOLServer/IDOL/AutonomyIDOLServer.cfg by removing
RegenerateRefIndex=TRUE that you added in step c.
- Stop
AutonomyDiSH.exe and AutonomyIDOLServer.exe.
- Stop
content.exe if it is still running after you stopped
AutonomyIDOLServer.exe.
- Start
DocuShare.
For multiple instances of IDOL, please contact DocuShare
Customer Support.
Improved verifyContentStore utility
- An improved
verifyContentStore utility checks and fixes incorrect file sizes of
document rendition files. The utility now includes -quickCheck_content_size
and -quickFix_content_size options. These options make it easier
to check for and fix the issue. This issue can affect some sites after
upgrading from 6.0.1 or 6.5.3 to 6.6.1. If your organization monitors
the Repository Use report or enforces user quotas for Document Content
Size, then you should run the verifyContentStore utility after
upgrading. The utility is located in the <DSHOME>/bin directory.
Upgrades and DocuShare on 32-bit operating systems
- If you are
upgrading a version of DocuShare that is running on a 32-bit operating
system to release 6.6.1, you must follow a specific upgrade procedure.
Refer to the article titled "How to Upgrade to DocuShare 6.6.1
64-bit from a Previous Version of 32-bit DocuShare" in the
DocuShare Knowledge Base.
Content Map and Show All button after an upgrade
- After
installing the update, the Content Map and usage of the Show All button
are disabled and will need to be re-enabled, as needed. If you are an
administrator, you can enable the features on the Site Configuration
page in the Administration UI.
Send daily and weekly notifications before an upgrade
- Before
upgrading to 6.6.1 from releases 5.x and later, ensure that daily and
weekly email notifications are sent and cleared from the queue to
prevent loss of pending notifications. Refer to the DocuShare
Installation Guide for more information.
Re-indexing IDOL search indexes may be required after upgrading
Some upgraded servers may have an existing problem where objects
with multiple parents were not properly indexed for search. At a convenient
time, after upgrading, run the following command to find and index these
objects:
multipleparents.bat/sh {option}
Options: -h (Help); -debug (set log level to debug
mode); -index (automatically index affected handles. The command does
not ask if you want to index the objects.)
Note: Indexing may take a long time to complete on sites with a
large number of multiple parent objects. Alternatively, you can run the
dsindex utility with the index_all option after upgrading to index the
multiple parent objects.
System Requirements Notes
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express
- Microsoft SQL
Server 2012 Express is not supported on Windows Server 2003. It is
supported on Windows Servers 2008 and 2012 only.
- Microsoft SQL
Server 2012 Express requires .NET Framework 3.5 to be installed on the
Windows Server 2012 R2 before installing DocuShare 6.6.1 R2.
Windows Platforms
Upgrades and URLs and virtual root path names
- When upgrading
to 6.6.1 Update 3, make sure all URLs and virtual root path names are in
lowercase only. Otherwise, DocuShare will not restart.
Solaris Platforms
Full re-index or full export/import of the IDOL search indexes
required
Installation of release 6.6.1 on a Solaris server installs a
64-bit version of the IDOL search and index engine. Therefore, if you are
upgrading from 6.5.3 to 6.6.1, you will need to re-index your site. You can
use either of the following methods for re-indexing.
Note: If you already installed DocuShare 6.5.3 Patch 2 Hot Fix 3,
then you do not need to re-index your site. You can proceed with the upgrade.
Full Re-index
- Upgrade to
6.6.1.
- Run dsindex.sh
index_all.
Full export/import of indexes
- Before the
upgrade, export the index data by running idoltool.sh:
>idoltool -s export <exportdir>
<exportdir> is the full pathname to an existing, empty directory.
The export operation is best done during off hours. The typical export
speed is 45 minutes per one million objects (content indexed).
- Upgrade to
6.6.1.
- Import the
index data by running idoltool.sh:
>idoltool -s import <exportdir>
<exportdir> is the same directory used in step 1. Again, the
import operation is best done during off hours. The typical import speed
is approximately 6 hours per one million objects (content indexed).
Language Pack Requirements
- You must
install the language packs for 6.6.1 Update 3 if 6.6.1 Update 1 or
Update 2 language packs were installed. Therefore, after installing
6.6.1 Update 3, install the language packs for 6.6.1 Update 3.
Additional Notes
Multiple DocuShare instances on the same server
- If you have
other instances of DocuShare running on the same server, make sure those
instances are running before installing additional instances.
MIME Type assignment method
- New
installations of DocuShare 6.6.1 set the MIME Type Assignment Method to
use the file extension algorithm. Upgrades to DocuShare 6.6.1 preserve
the existing MIME Type Assignment Method setting. If you are upgrading
to 6.6.1 and the MIME Type Assignment Method is set to use the file
content algorithm, it is strongly recommended that you change the MIME
Type Assignment Method to the file extension algorithm. Using the file
content algorithm consumes system resources, which can affect
performance. To change the MIME Type Assignment Method, use the Site
Management | MIME Types page in the Admin UI.
Plain text conversion in content rules
- The plain text
conversion option is no longer available for a content rule convert
action.
fixupMimeTypes.sh on Solaris and Linux platforms
- If the RMI
port number for the DocuShare site is a value other than the default
(1099), add the JVM parameter
"-Dcom.xerox.docushare.rmi.port=${newRMIPort}" to
fixupMimeTypes.sh. For example:
java -cp ${MY_CLASSPATH} -Dcom.xerox.docushare.rmi.port=11099 -Dcom.xerox.docushare.install=${DOCUSHARE_HOME}
-Dverbose=false -Xms256m -Xmx512m
com.xerox.docushare.db.util.fixupMimeTypes.fixupMimeTypes "$@"
