Doubt about credentials file when upgrading DM and VVC applications.

Question

Hi all,

During upgrade of DM and VVC applications to the version 5.0.x, one of the steps is to migrate VVC and DM applications. In the upgrade guide there is the following attention point:
"Ensure there are credentials that exists with the following content:"

adminUserId=yourAdminUserId
adminPassword=yourAdminPassword
repositoryURL=https://yourserver.com:9443/dm
smartCard=<none>
certificateFile=<none>

Well, I did not find any file with this content. There is no "credentials.txt" created in my environment.
Question: Must I create the credentials.txt in order to execute the command below?

./repotools-vvc.sh -vvc_online_migrationCommand credentialsFile=credentials.txt fromVersion=<previous_version> logPort=52000 logLevel=DEBUG

Thanks for any tip.

Hi Luiz,

Yes, you need to create this file yourself.
Make sure you have updated repositoryURL while upgrading VVC and then DM.

Also, make sure you set "<none>" to smartCard= and certificateFile= fields:


	adminUserId=yourAdminUserId
	

	adminPassword=yourAdminPassword
	

	repositoryURL=https://yourserver.com:9443/dm
	

	smartCard=<none>
	

	certificateFile=

<none>

Regards,
Andrey

Hmm... <nont&gt was remoted...
Anyway... make sure smartCard and certificateFile fields are not empty.

Thank you for the quick answer Andrey. The smartCart and certificateFile will be:
adminUserId=yourAdminUserId adminPassword=yourAdminPassword repositoryURL=https://yourserver.com:9443/dm smartCard="" certificateFile=""
Is this?

Editor removes "lt" and "gt" symbols. You need to specify exactly the same values as described in help: "<none>" (none between lt and gt symbols)

Ok. Thank you very much.

Andrey,

One more question:

in the command

./repotools-vvc.sh -vvc_online_migrationCommand credentialsFile=credentials.txt fromVersion=<previous_version> logPort=52000 logLevel=DEBUG

<previous_version> should be replaced by <previous_version_install_dir>?

<previous_version> should be replaced with the version you are migrating from. For example:
fromVersion=4.0.6
