Using PeopleSoft Update Manager (PUM)

This is a test to understand how PUM works and what are the different pieces involved.

Workstation/Laptop config
Windows 7 Enterprise, 64bit OS, 12GB RAM, 237GB HDD

VM Details
FSC92DMO - Patch 16877487: PEOPLESOFT FSCM IMAGE 9.2.001
EP92P005 - Patch 17965081: PEOPLESOFT FSCM IMAGE 9.2.005

Disk Space Details
zip files – 24.5GB
zip files expanded – 25GB
.ova file – 25GB
So total disk space used before even creating appliance = 75GB

Once .ova file is created the expanded files can be deleted.
The .ova file can be deleted once the VM is up and running

Both VMs once up and running take around 90 GB

Environments
EP92P005 (PI) - FSCM 9.2 Image #5, PT 8.53.09
FSC92DMO (target) - FSCM 9.2, Demo, PT 8.53.04

If target and PI are at different minor tools release, then run client install from the higher tools release (8.53.09) and then install PSCA running at tools rel 8.53.09. Basically take whatever comes with the PI environment, as that would generally be latest and greatest.

Update the environment long and short name in the following page before starting any agents.
PeopleTools > Utilities > Administration > PeopleTools Options

I am starting FSC92DMO VM first and then the EP92P005. As Dynamic IP addressing option has been chosen, the first one has 192.168.56.102 and the next one 103.

Verify App Designer, SQL Developer and web connectivity to both envs.

EMHUB/Agents
Logged into FSC92DMO VM, su in as psadm1, updated PSEMAgent config URL to http://192.168.56.102:8000/PSEMHUB/hub and Unix drives to crawl to /opt/oracle|/home/psadm2

Rename the delivered search-results.xml file to search-results-old.xml and then start the agent in the background as follows.

./StartAgent.sh &
 
Did a local client install under c:\apps\PT853. Updated the PSEMAgent config file here also to point to http://192.168.56.102:8000/PSEMHUB/hub and windows drives to crawl set to C:/apps/PT853|C:/apps/oracle


Started the agent as an administrator.
 
Start PSCA


 

 
 
 
 
 






















C:\apps\PT853\ is where the workstation install of PT 8.53 and 09 patch was done
Y:\ is mapped to the pi_home share of the PI environment.






















EMF Agent is running on target which is FSC92DMO. I have one agent running on the Linux VM. So it found App/Prcs and Web. For File Server Linux is not a certified option, which is why I have a local install of PeopleTools which acts as the file server.
 
Additional Options - no changes took defaults
 






























 
 
Target is FSC92DMO db and source will be the PI image db EP92P005.

 
 





















Click Next and then Finish on the confirmation screen.




















 
Now file server section is automatically filled out.










 
Key in the db name and once you tab out the following screen appears
 






















Click Next to view the confirmation screen and then Click on Finish which will take you back to the following screen
























Key in the URL to the PI environment.





















 
 
Examine Patch Target and Source db info as displayed above.
Now click on the “Open Browser and Connect to the PI Database” button.
Signon page pointing to the PI Image URL opens up. Rest of the steps are now done within PIA and we will come back to this page to apply the change package which will be created in your PIA session.
















Step 1 is automatically grayed out, as we only have one target db in this case.
Provide a Package name and click next







































So there are 30 patches that need to be applied




































Now back in PSCA.



























































































Now begin applying this patch as normal.
