Tomcat version upgrade in RTC

HI Jazz Experts

We are in RTC version 3.0.1.2 and CQ 7.1.1.02 and latest CQ Connector package 10

The tomcat version bundled with 3.0.1.2 is version 5.5
There are known security issues in tomcat version 5.5. To resolve that, our internal security team wants us to upgrade the tomcat version.

We found this link on upgrading the tomcat version for RTC http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21448666

Has anyone tried upgrading the tomcat version of RTC ? We are worried about the connector too. Will it be compatible with the CQ connector

Thank you,
Pavithra

I have done this on occasion here are the steps I took:

1) Stop RTC
2) unpack the new tomcat under the server directory. That will usually create "apache-tomcat-5.x.yy" directory
3) rename the prior tomcat directory to anything else
4) rename the apache-tomcat-5.x.yy to tomcat
5) move the webapps folder from the original location into the new tomcat
6) start RTC.
