Failed upgrade to RM 5.0.2 in mergeLPAJTS step
We recently upgraded from CLM 5.0 to 5.0.2.
When we run the diagnostics for RM, we get:
Friend: the discovery resource at https://<servername>/admin/rootservices for "/admin" cannot be accessed:
The returned HTTP status was 404
The response body was
Not Found
The requested URL /admin/rootservices was not found on this server.
The output of the
./repotools-rm.sh -mergeLPAJTS lpaContextRoot=admin applicationContextRoot=rm oldJTSHome=/cm/IBM/JazzTeamServer_500GA//server/conf onlyRemoveFriend=true oldApplicationHome=/cm/IBM/JazzTeamServer_500GA//server/conf oldApplicationVersion=Previous Requirements Management application version
command did not show any errors.
'/admin' is still listed in the Friends list.
1. How do we fix this?
2. Is this a Defect because /admin was not removed by repotools-rm?
Accepted answer
Hello
Are you able to use LPA from https://<servername>/jts/lpa?
If so, you can remove the Friends key manually:

Are you able to use LPA from https://<servername>/jts/lpa?
If so, you can remove the Friends key manually:
- Go to the Rational DOORS Next Generation administration page.
- On the Friend (Outbound) tab, remove the LPA friend entry.
The merge command can fail to remove the friend information if the oldJTSHome is set incorrectly, as was the case in this defect:
If the command fails to remove the friend, the log file should show this message OR a return code of "10":

Hi,
We are able to see LPA in ../jts/lpa.
I read Defect 331570 and Task 335587. Thank you.
We did not get an error message when we ran:
$ sudo ./repotools-rm.sh -mergeLPAJTS lpaContextRoot=admin applicationContextRoot=rm oldJTSHome=/cm/IBM/JazzTeamServer_500GA/server/conf onlyRemoveFriend=true oldApplicationHome=/cm/IBM/JazzTeamServer_500GA/server/conf oldApplicationVersion=5.0
I believe the problem is that 'oldJTSHome=/cm/IBM/JazzTeamServer_500GA/server/conf' is on another server (a distributed system) and repotools could not find the /admin directory to be able to look up the Friends consumer key as mentioned in Task 335587, Description (#2).
I am disappointed that there was not an error message from repotools for this case and that the Interactive Upgrade Guide did not mention this for distributed systems.
