Installing or Upgrading the System Reporter Tools

System Reporter 2.8

3PAR System Reporter User’s Guide

Click on the Upgrade button to keep the existing settings and skip to step

10

.

Click on the Next button to step through each of the settings as described in the

following steps.

3

When prompted, use the Browse... button to select and enter the full path to the InForm

CLI executable cli.exe (if it is different from the default) then click Next.

4

When prompted, use the Browse... button to select and enter the full path to the location

where you installed Apache HTTP Server (if it is different from the default) then click Next.

5

Use the Browse... button to select and enter the installation directory for the 3PAR System

Reporting Tools sampler or accept the default directory (

C:/Program Files/3PAR/

System Reporter

) and then click Next.

6

Make sure that the desired database is selected, then click Next.

7

This step differs based on the type of database you selected.

a

If you selected SQLite for the database, you will be prompted for the installation

directory for the 3PAR Reporting Tools SQLite database. Use the Browse... button to

select and enter the directory or accept the default directory (

C:/Program Files/

3PAR/System Reporter/inservstats

) and then click Next. Since SQLite databases

are merely on local files no user name or password are required and you will skip

step 8

and be taken directly to

step 9

.

b

If you selected MySQL for the database you will be prompted for the MySQL server host

name and database name. Enter the host name or IP address for a remote MySQL server

or leave it as localhost for local MySQL server. Enter the database name if different

from the default database that is displayed (inservstats). Click Next.

c

If you selected Oracle for the database you will be prompted for the host string. Enter

the net service name you entered in

step 9

in section

3.8.3.3 Creating the Oracle Net

Service

on page 3.23 and click Next.

NOTE: If the installer detects a previous version of System Reporter, it will pop up

a window at this point. If the

compactdb

process is running, the popup will

advise you to wait for the compaction to complete and perform the upgrade

later. It will not provide an option to stop the previous installation since

terminating a

compactdb

prematurely causes problems with the database for

MySQL. If

compactdb

is not running, the popup window asks for permission to

stop the previous installation before proceeding with the new installation.
