Patch Installation
Follow the steps below to install the patch:
- Download the upgrade package from filerepo.krontech.com and check md5sum.
- Then, extract the Kron PAM Upgrade Package by using the following command:
- [root@localhost Downloads]# tar xvf patch_xxx.tgz
- For releases before 2.10.0, use the following command to extract the files: [root@localhost Downloads]# tar zxvmf patch_xxx.tgz
- List extracted files.
- [root@localhost Downloads]# ls -ltr
- drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 22 Oct 4 16:55 patch_xxx
- Move the extracted files into patch_xxx folder.
- [root@localhost Downloads]# cd patch_xxx
- Execute the patch_xxx.sh script. The patch script checks the current status of components and the current version of Kron PAM and prompts for available updates.
There are 3 options for installation.
Select and type the correct option for the instance, and then press Enter.
Option | Explanation |
|---|---|
1) Package+DB | Applies all packages and database changes. Select this option to install the patch on a standalone node or a master node (if database replication exists) |
2) Package | Applies only to package changes. Select this option to install the patch on a slave node (if database replication exists) |
3) DB | Applies only database changes. Select this option only to apply database changes. |
After selecting the correct option, the patch will be executed straightforward. Patch automatically restarts the Kron PAM components and database to apply changes. If installation finishes successfully, no errors will display. When installation finishes, execute the health check commands described in Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide.
