WCS Linux Upgrade

I am trying to upgrade a Linux WCS and when I run the command in linux I get permission denied. I do not have alot of experience with the Linux operating system but assume I don't have rights run the command. I am logged in as the root user. Do I need to change the rights of the file to run it? What are the commands to change those rights.
\Thanks in advance.....

type ls -al
You should see similiar the following:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 300685722 Mar 12 2009 WCS-STANDARD-K9-6.0.58.0.bin (your version here)
The 1st rwx is user read/write/execute, the next, r-x is group read & execute & and the last r-x is world (everyone) read & execute
If not, you can simply type chmod u+x WCS-STANDARD-K9-6.0.58.0.bin and possibly g+x WCS-STANDARD-K9-6.0.58.0.bin to give executable access to the file.
If you are in the same directory, add a ./ before the name of the file(no spaces)

Wcs license upgrade issue

Dear all,
We have two 4400 controllers which support 50 Access points each and wcs with 100 base license.Now we added 5508 controller supports 50 access points.wcs is upgraded with another 50 ap license.The 5508 controller is joined to wcs and the licence showing permanent.WCS showing all aps and showing both 100 and 50 licence as permanent.
But the issue is while loging into the wcs it showing the error message as"The system is in violation of license.The number of APs registered is greater then licensed."
What might be the reason.Please help me.
Attaching the screen shot.
Thanks in Advance
Bose.

Because your WCS is still licensed for 100 APs ....
There are 2 license level : Base and PLUS.
You had a 100 AP Base license.
You bought a PLUS_UPG license which upgrade 50 out of your 100 AP count to PLUS.
Result : you now have 100 AP licensed on WCS, out of which 50 have the "PLUS" feature set.
You should have ordered a "BASE ap count 50" license. or if you want to go to plus, a "plus_UPG" license but for the 100, and then a plus ap count 50.

How to upgrade the OS on WCS(Linux)?

I want to upgrade my WCS to RedHat Linux 5.0. I have burned the iso image to a cd, rebooted the WCS and find nothing happening. Prior to rebooting, I start a SSH connection to the appliance so I figured that I would see it come up and the upgrade start but then I lose the connection. Does anyone have any info on upgrading the OS on a WCS? TIA

Thanks for the reply. I simply copied the iso to a cd. during the reboot, I lose my console connection. So it sounds like I am not burning the cd correctly?

WCS won't start after Linux Upgrade

Hi,
I've just upgrade RH to v5.0 and it all seemed to go fine except WCS won't start. I was running v5.0.56.0 on RH v4.0 (I know it's not supported) on a WLSE appliance, which ironically seemed to be fine. Now I get this....
Database server is running
Apache server is stopped
WCS is registered, but not initialized.
The Server seems to be unavailable. The possible reasons are
1. The server is not running yet.
2. The server is hanging.
3 The server has crashed.
If the server has crashed or is hanging
Please report the issue and follow the instructions to restart it.
1. Run StopWCS to stop all WCS processes.
2. Run StartWCS to start the WCS server.
3. If the server still fails to start, or you still get this
message, then reboot the machine.
Any suggestions will be most welcome.
Thanks
Scott

WCS/Redhat Upgrade Question

Hello all,
I recently migrated from the WLSE appliance to WCS Version 4.1.83.0 as well as Redhat Linux 4.0 (via the 2 CD's that were shipped). I would like to upgrade my WCS to the latest version (7.0), with the following upgrade path in mind:
4.1.83.0
to
4.2.62.0
to
5.2.110.0
to
7.0.164.0
My question is do I need to upgrade my Redhat to 5.0 Enterprise version as well in order to support this upgrade? My understanding is that the WLSE appliance is no longer an appliance and is now a full fledge WCS SERVER, in which case I do need to upgrade Redhat. If so, is Redhat 5.0 free to upgrade?
Thanks for the help as always.
Bobby Grewal

Hi Bobby:
Yes, in order to run WCS versions beyond 4.2, you'll need a Red Hat upgrade on a converted WLSE. Because the conversion process brought Red Hat provided by Cisco, the converted WLSE is indeed an appliance (it's just not called that) and Cisco does indeed provide the Red Hat upgrade. You can open a service request with TAC and they'll post the ISO image of the Red Hat upgrade CD for you, or give me your Cisco.com ID and I'll post it for you without an SR.
As for your proposed upgrade path, if this was *my* WCS installation to address, I'd go:
4.1.83.0 to 4.2.128.0 then run Data Cleanup
4.2.128.0 to 6.0.181.0
6.0.181.0 to 7.0.164.0
Long and short, avoiding some bugs and letting 4.2 executables clean a 4.2 database before exiting the train, then bypassing 5.* altogether.
Sincerely,

WCS Software upgrade on WLSE appliance

Hi
I am having difficulty upgrading the software code of WCS. We have a WLSE appliance that was upgraded to a WCS. I have downloaded the latest WCS software code (7.0.172) unto my PC. However, I do not know how to upgrade the WCS, since the WLSE is a stand alone appliance running on Linux and the WCS is just a GUI interface hosted from the WLSE appliance. Please how do I go about this upgrade. Thanks

What are the important points during a Linux upgrade with Oracle database?

Is there a specific document or metalink note that I may follow similar to this one during a Linux os upgrade -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28300/toc.htm
Lets talk on an example; we may talk on upgrading details of a RHEL3 RAC system with Oracle options used like ASM,OCFS etc. to RHEL4. What steps are important to take by order and what are the best practices to be careful about during this type of an os upgrade for Oracle?
Best regards.

may I need to get support from https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101 for this kind of a documentation?

Linux upgrade 6.2 to 6.4

We wish to upgrade few of our linux OS 6.2 to 6.4,
We have databases and EBS, OBIEE applicaitons on our servers.
Prior to upgrade we need to know the effect of OS upgrade on our db's and EBS, OBIEE applicaitons.
Please let me know the tips, know how, FAQ's, documentations etc for this . . .
Regards,
Djay

Djay,
1. from db side we can relink the binaries
2. EBS side also we can relink the binaries
I believe you are aware of the steps, however you may see (What Are The Requirements For E-Business Suite When Upgrading Operating Systems? (Doc ID 1061303.1)).
3. OBIEE (don't know)
4. OBIEE uses weblogic (don't know)
Please see (OBIEE 11g: Do Need to Re-link the OBIEE Binaries after Upgrading the Linux Kernel and Kernel Headers. (Doc ID 1554289.1)).
Thanks,

Linux upgrade and many less OS processes

We are 11.5.10.2 in a split database configuration. Our database server is 64bit and our apps servers are 32bit. We are in the process of replacing our servers and upgrading our RH Linux version from 4 to 5 in the process. Everything has went fine but I'm seeing differences in the number of Linux OS processes being created on the ccm/reports and apache/forms servers. I'm not seeing any problems with the applications functioning and no diagnostics reporting errors and not errors in log files. Basically all seems fine except that I'm concerned about the vast differences in the number of processes on the OS. Below is further information.
Does Linux 5 handle java processes/child processes differently than Linux 4? Both servers are running java version "1.6.0_07". I have not be able to figure this out yet. Thanks for any input.
Linux 4 processes (ccm/reports server)
2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 12 23:27:17 EDT 2006 i386 GNU/Linux
ps -ef count for GSMServiceController = 42
ps -ef count for GSMSvcComponentContainer = 88
ps -ef count for rwmts60 = 8
Linux 5 processes (ccm/reports server)
2.6.18-164.el5PAE #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:59:11 EDT 2009 i386 GNU/Linux
ps -ef count for GSMServiceController = 1
ps -ef count for GSMSvcComponentContainer = 2
ps -ef count for rwmts60 = 1

Here is one example using the reports processes. It is like the child processes are not getting spawned but as noted I can find no errors and the applications are working.
ps -ef | grep -i rep
Here is what we have in LNX4
<applowner> 6119 1 0 Sep14 ? 00:00:00 rwmts60 name=REP60_LNX4

Confused on WCS Licnese Upgrade

I have one WCS running 7.0.164.0
It has a "plus" (permananet) license for 50 APs
I need to increase my AP count, so I have obtained an additional licnese for 100 APs from Cisco.
When I attempt to upload the new licnnese the WCS, I get an error telling me I must first have a Base License.
I would have thought that if the WCS initially came with a Plus license, then the Base License would already be included.
What am I missing ?

Dennis,
WCS licenses can't be mixed. The stacking would need to be happen in a certain order. In this case, since you already
have a PLUS license only PLUS licenses can be stacked on top of it. The right part for this would be WCS-PLUS-100 whereas you have been sold WCS-PLUS-UPG-100 (UPG is an upgrade license which goes only top of a BASE license). You would need to exchange this for the right number & then host the license to get it added to WCS.
Hope this Clarifies a bit.

WCS License Upgrade

Dear All
I am trying to upgrade a WCS running a plus license f 100 access point. with a base license of additional 50 access point.
the base license is already purchase, is there any workaround to do this?
please check attachment to see the error
Thanks,
Elie

Hi,
If WCS is licensed for the feature type - PLUS, only PLUS licenses can be added.
Whereas the license file you're trying to add is a BASE license which can't be stacked on top of a PLUS license. Hence the error reported by
thus the error.
For ex , WCS-PLUS-50 for plus while WCS-APBASE-50 is for base.
