• Run the stop.sh script to shutdown any running servers. See Stopping and starting the Hybrid Data Pipeline service for details.
  • For an upgrade installation using environment variables, environment variables must be set prior to upgrade in the same session that the server is being upgraded.

After you have generated and edited your response file, you can perform a silent upgrade.

Take the following steps to perform a silent upgrade:

  1. From a command-line prompt, navigate to the directory where you saved the product file. Alternatively, place the product file directory on your path before proceeding to the next step.

    The product file has the format PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin, where nn is the version of the product.

  2. Execute a silent upgrade by entering the following command and pressing ENTER.

    PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin -i silent -f response_file

    where response_file is the full path of the response file you have created and edited. For example, if the response file is named pipeline.response and resides in the directory /home/users/johndoe, you would enter:

    PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin -i silent -f response_file

  3. The upgrade proceeds without any further user intervention unless you enter an incorrect value on the console or in the response file, in which case an error is displayed and installation stops.
  4. Verify the installation by accessing the Hybrid Data Pipeline user interface from a browser. The login page should appear. For example:

    https://<myserver>:8443/

    where for a non-load balancer installation:

    <myserver> is the fully qualified hostname of the machine where you installed Hybrid Data Pipeline.

    where for a load balancer installation:

    <myserver> is the fully qualified hostname or IP address of the load balancer.

    After logging in, administrators can verify product version information by selecting About from the question mark drop-down menu.

When a silent installation or upgrade fails, the installer writes a file named SilentInstallerError.log to the user's home directory. This file can be used to troubleshoot installation errors.

What to do next

For a load balancer deployment, if you changed any values for On-Premises Access Ports during an upgrade, you will need to reconfigure the load balancer to use the new ports.

Important: If you previously configured server-side SSL in a deployment using a load balancer, you must rerun the enable_ssl.sh script on each server node to re-enable SSL. See SSL configuration for details.

For a non-load balancer deployment, if you changed any of the On-Premises Connector Ports, you will need to reinstall the On-Premises Connector with updated configuration and certificate files. These files are located in the Hybrid Data Pipeline installation directory <install_dir>/redist. These files must be copied to the directory of the On-Premises Connector installer before proceeding with the reinstallation of the On-Premises Connector.

The four configuration and certificate files are:

  • config.properties
  • ddcloud.pem
  • ddcloudTrustStore.jks
  • OnPremise.properties

See Installing the Hybrid Data Pipeline On-Premises Connector for further details.
