Autoinstall.sh Utility Script


This IBM Redpaper explains the functions of the autoinstall.sh utility script, its requirements, operation, implementation, and procedures, to facilitate UNIX FTA fixpack installations that are initiated from the Tivoli Workload Scheduler master workstation. We provide two scenarios along with discussions about the various menus and options. Initial first time execution Subsequent executions Utility menus

Utility overview
The autoinstall.sh utility script is designed to run from the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Version 8.2.0, or greater, master workstation to install fixpacks on UNIX FTA (fault-tolerant agent) workstations with the following UNIX operating systems: AIX HPUX Linux_i386 Solaris The autoinstall.sh utility script, in conjunction with Tivoli Workload Scheduler (UNIX 8.2.0 or greater), reduces the amount of operations and hours required to

maintain FTA workstations that are current on maintenance fixpacks. This is accomplished by automating and monitoring UNIX FTA fixpack installations from a central location. Note: Lowercase should be used for all inputs, except for passwords, because they are case sensitive. The script uses existing UNIX tools, ssh and scp, to perform tasks between UNIX master and UNIX FTA workstations. The ssh protocol is used to provide a secure protocol between the master and FTA. SSH certificates may be created to eliminate the need to provide a password when connecting to a remote system. Refer to Configuring OPENSSH on page 77 for more details. Some operating systems may require that these tools be configured or installed, if they were not part of the initial operating system installation. Please consult with your UNIX administrator for configuration or installation assistance. The script is designed to work on AIX, HPUX, Linux_i386 and Solaris platforms. It must reside on the UNIX master and may only patch UNIX FTA workstations. The script must be run as root user, because the Tivoli Workload Scheduler fixpack installations require that root user execute the patch installation. Although written for Tivoli Workload Scheduler fixpack installation, the script may be customized to schedule and install or patch any application that has a UNIX command line installation option. Note: Any customizing is the responsibility of the user and will not be supported by Tivoli Level 2 support. The script may be placed in any directory. It will create temporary files in the /tmp directory. Any created temporary files will have an extension .#####, where ##### is the process ID for the script when executed. The temporary files will be removed when exiting the script normally.

Features
The following are the features of autoinstall.sh utility: The script runs on the server, and: Gathers and stores client installation information for patch installations or new product installations. Transfers installation scripts from the server to the client. Can be customized by the user to patch or install any product with a command line interface.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Uses Tivoli Workload Scheduler to: Schedule, launch and monitor the Tivoli Workload Scheduler patch installation or a new installation of any product with a command line interface from a central location.

Requirements
Here are the requirements of the solution.

System requirements
The autoinstall.sh utility script is designed to run from the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Version 8.2, or greater, master workstation on the following UNIX platforms and may only install fixpacks on UNIX FTA workstations. AIX HPUX Linux_i386 Solaris The .profile for the twsuser must have the TWSHome and TWSHome/bin directory in PATH variable for the master and FTA. You should be able to invoke Tivoli Workload Scheduler commands without having to specify the path. The FTA must be able to issue ssh and scp commands. The ssh protocol is used to provide a secure protocol between the master and FTA. Some operating systems may require that these tools be configured or installed, if they were not part of the initial operating system install. Please consult with your UNIX administrator for ssh and ssl configuration or installation assistance.

Autoinstall.sh script information and requirements


The autoinstall.sh script must run on a AIX, HPUX, Linux_i386 or Solaris master to patch AIX, HPUX, Linux_i386 or Solaris FTA workstations. The script may be run by multiple users to create or update files. Temporary files will be generated in the /tmp directory each time the script is run and will be removed when exiting normally from the script.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Attention: There is a known issue with the autoinstall.sh when it is run on Liniux_i386. The carriage return, which is not visible in AIX, HPUX and Solaris, appear as /c on Linux_i386 when running the autoinstall.sh script. The script functionality is not affected. A master domain manager (MDM) definition directory will be created when the script is executed using information from the Tivoli Workload Scheduler master user. This directory will be used to store information for applying fixpacks on FTA workstations that it manages. The /etc/TWS/APPL.tws directory, which will be the repository for utility scripts, will be created on the master the first time the script is run. The utility scripts for the FTA workstations will exist locally on the FTA in the /etc/TWS directory. The utility script can be used to copy (via scp) the utility scripts from the master to the FTA. The Tivoli Workload Scheduler utility scripts, patch_install.sh, and patch must be placed in the /etc/TWS/APPL.tws directory for the master workstation. The Tivoli Workload Scheduler fixpack installation scripts, patch_install.sh and patch_lau.sh, must be copied from the repository on the master (/etc/TWS/APPS.tws directory) to the /etc/TWS directory on FTA and should be executable by the Tivoli Workload Scheduler user, specified during the initial FTA Tivoli Workload Scheduler installation. If the master and FTA workstation exist on same node then the utility scripts must exist in both directories. Other applications directories, /etc/TWS/APPL.xxxx, may be created with the autoinstall.sh script to serve as a utility repository for other application scripts but the autoinstall.sh script must be customized by the user. The directory for these must be APPL.name where name is the name of the application in lowercase. Customizing will be the users responsibility and will not be supported by Tivoli Workload Scheduler level 2 support. Contact IBM Services for assistance with customizing. The autoinstall.sh script requires basic FTA information that is stored for future fixpack installations. The script extracts the node/ip, Tivoli Workload Scheduler version and operating system for FTA, provided FTA exists, in the current Symphony file and is linked. The user will need to provide the Tivoli Workload Scheduler user, specified at FTA installation and base path directory for fixpack repository. The FTA specific base path should include the Tivoli Workload Scheduler version and operating system in the path to facilitate user fixpack maintenance. Ideally the fixpack path should be an NFS mounted file system which is mounted on all FTA workstations using the following naming convention. The fixpack directory should have a common base path followed by TWSversion/OS (/patchesbasepath/twsversion/os). Refer to Example 1.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Example 1 Fixpack base naming convention

Example: Base path directory for AIX FTA currently on TWS 8.3 /images/patches/8.3.0/aix Where: patchesbasepath = /images/patches twsverison = is 8.3.0 (use 3 digit format) os = aix (aix, hpux,linux_i386 or solaris) The FTA workstation information will be written to FTA.ftaname file, where FTA text is in uppercase and ftaname is the FTA workstation name in lowercase, as shown in Example 2.
Example 2 FTA.workstation file

Example: Information on FTA Borg will exist in a file called: FTA.borg The FTA file will exist in a sub-directory of its workstation master. The name of the directory is /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername, where text MDM is in uppercase, masteruser is the Tivoli Workload Scheduler user for the master and the mastername is the workstation name of the master (lowercase). Refer to Example 3.
Example 3 MDM.masteruser.mastername definition directory

Example: TWS user m821 for master workstation Data will have the following directory for FTAs that it manages: MDM.m821.data The autoinstall.sh script will request specific patch information when patching an FTA. The patches must be in a sub directory named fp##. Refer to Example 4.
Example 4 Fixpack directory convention

The patches must be in a sub directory named fp##, where fp is in lowercase and ## is the two digit patch number for fixpack (fp01, fp02, fp10, fp11 etc...). Example: The following path must exist for patching a TWS 8.3 AIX FTA with fixpack FP01. /images/patches/8.3.0/aix/fp01 The autoinstall.sh script will verify that untarred fixpack files exist in the fp## sub directory. If only the fixpack tar file exists, it will suggest that it be untarred prior to

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

running the autoinstall script. It will also verify that the Tivoli Workload Scheduler version and patch level, specified in the menu, match the Tivoli Workload Scheduler version and patch level of the fixpack files. Patching will only be permitted if the specified fixpack is the same level or greater than the current fixpack level on the FTA workstation. After the information has been gathered and verified, a job definition will be created and added to the patch_job_def file in the /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername directory. The job created will be unique to the FTA, because it will be for a specific fixpack. Note: Because each fixpack includes all fixes for previous fixpacks, entering multiple fixpacks for the same FTA workstation is not required. Concurrent autoinstall.sh scripts can be executed to add to the patch_job_def file. Duplicate job definitions in the patch_job_def file will be ignored when the job stream is created. The autoinstall.sh script will create the patch_lau_sch_def and patch_succ_sch_def files in the /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername directory. These files will contain the definitions for the TWSPATCH_LAUNCH and TWSPATCH_SUCC job streams. These definitions will run on the master once added to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler database. Unique job definitions created by the autoinstall.sh that exist in patch_job_def file in the /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername directory will be added to the TWSPATCH_LAUNCH job stream. Multiple job definitions with the exact same name that exist in the patch_job_def file will exist only once in the TWSPATCH_LAUNCH job stream. The creation of the job stream operation may be run several times, because it will overwrite the previous job stream files. The autoinstall.sh script will be used to add the completed job and job stream definition files to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler database. Caution: Adding the job stream definitions to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler database will replace the existing job stream definition for TWSPATCH_LAUNCH and TWSPATCH_SUCC. After adding the job and job stream definitions files to Tivoli Workload Scheduler database, remove the patch_job_def file in the /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername directory. This file may be removed using the autoinstall.sh script.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Attention: The fixpack job definitions should be removed from the Tivoli Workload Scheduler jobs database after the fixpack job has installed the fixpack. This is suggested to limit the number of jobs that will no longer be used, because the fixpack jobs are unique to the FTA and fixpack. The TWSPATCH_SUCC job stream will not have defined jobs, but will contain ad-hoc submitted jobs from FTA workstations when FTA fixpack jobs have completed successfully. The ad-hoc job will be submitted from the FTA when the fixpack installation completes successfully. Example 5 shows the naming convention for the job name of a successful fixpack installation.
Example 5 TWSPACTH_SUCC jobs

ftaname_twsver_FP_xx_jobnum_SUCC where: ftaname is the FTA workstation patched twsver is the TWS version xx is fixpack number (2 digit format) jobnum is the job number of FTA fixpack install job Example: Fixpack install job for TWS version 8.2 Fixpack 10, job number 5767 installed on FTA M82A successfully will have the this jobname in the TWSPATCH_SUCC job stream on master workstation: M82A_820_FP_10_5767_SUCC The provided scripts use variables for specific information. The debug option is the only customizable option in the autoinstall.sh script. DO NOT edit or modify any variables. Changes to the variables will cause script and installation problems and will not be supported by Tivoli Workload Scheduler Level 2 support. The patch_install.sh script executes the patch_lau.sh script after verifying that the information provided by the job is valid. The patch_lau.sh will inherit the values for variables that were defined in the patch_install.sh script. The patch_install.sh script executes patch_lau.sh, which initiates the fixpack install. This script, which requires four options: -uname, -patchdir, -version and patch, makes up the job definition created by the autoinstall.sh script. We recommend that autoinstall.sh script is used to create and add the job and job stream definitions. The patch_lau.sh script will create the ftaname_fp_fp##_jobnum.stdlog file in the /tmp directory. This will log procedures prior to executing the twspatch install. Once the twspatch installation launches, the fixpack installation will write to the log specified the fixpack readme file.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Tivoli Workload Scheduler requirements


The autoinstall.sh script must be run from Tivoli Workload Scheduler 8.2.0, or greater, UNIX master. The script may be placed in any directory. It will create temporary files in the /tmp directory. Any created temporary files will have a extension .#####, where ##### is the process ID for script when executed. The temporary files will be removed when exiting the script normally. The TWSRegistry.dat file must be correct and up to date, because the script extracts Tivoli Workload Scheduler FTA instance information, including fixpacks currently installed, from the file. Root user on the master must have access to Tivoli Workload Scheduler files and databases and must exist in the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Security file, because fixpack installations must be run as root. The root user on FTA must be able to submit ad-hoc jobs that logon as the root user on the master. The master must have a current Symphony file and be linked to FTA workstations that will be patched, because information will be extracted when the script is executed. The script uses the cpuinfo command to validate master and FTA workstations. The thiscpu= field in TWSHome/localopts and the master= field in TWSHome/mozart/globalopts file must be valid and correct on both master and FTA workstations, or Tivoli Workload Scheduler user validation issues may occur when the script is run. The autoinstall.sh script is used to add the job and job stream definitions to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler database. The definitions should be reviewed prior to adding them to the database. Duplicate job definitions will not be included in the job stream but will be added to the jobs database. If duplicate job definitions exist, the last one added to the jobs database will be used. Multiple fixpack installation jobs that install different fixpacks on the same FTA workstation should be avoided, because installing the latest fixpack includes all previous fixes. The script does not prevent this action.

Patching procedures
The autoinstall.sh script may be used to provide information for a fixpack install or create FTA.workstation definitions files for future fixpack installs.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Creating FTA.workstation definition files for future fixpack installations will speed up the process when applying a fixpack to an FTA. This option is useful if the master manages a large number of FTA workstations and is part of the utilities menu options. To perform either of these options requires the creation of specific files or directories which is accomplished by the initial execution of the autoinstall.sh script. This section discusses the first time execution and subsequent patching procedures using the patch option of the autoinstall.sh script.

Patching procedures - First time execution


The initial execution of the autoinstall.sh script will create files and directories with FTA specific information that will be used in future executions of the autoinstall.sh script. Certain tasks must be performed before executing the script. 1. Create patch repository for each FTA (refer to Autoinstall.sh Script Information and Requirements section). This is necessary, because this information will be requested when creating a FTA.workstation definition file (discussed later). 2. Verify that the localopts and globalopts on FTA and Master are correct. Incorrect information will cause problems in extracting or validating information. 3. Verify that the .profile for FTA TWSuser includes the TWSHome and TWSHome/bin directory in the PATH variable. The script issues remote Tivoli Workload Scheduler commands from the master to the FTA workstation, and errors might occur if the TWSuser .profile does not include the Tivoli Workload Scheduler path in the PATH variable. 4. Verify that all FTA workstations that will be patched are linked, active and have current Symphony file. FTA information is gathered from the Symphony file, this requires that the master be linked to the FTA workstation. The script may not be able to extract or validate information if they are not linked and have a current Symphony file. 5. Logon to the master workstation as root user. This is required, because gathering information and applying the fixpack must be executed as the root user. 6. Execute the autoinstall.sh script as the root user. The script will display message about location of temporary files and their extension, information about the master workstation, current master instance(s) that exist and ask that a master user name be provided to create the MDM definition directory for FTA workstations that it will manage. Refer to Figure 1.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Current system OS is HPUX The current process id is 18671, Temporary created files will be created in the /tmp directory and have a .18671 extension. No existing MDM definition file exists You will need to create a mdm definition file. This is a list of defined MDM users in the TWSRegistry.dat file for this workstation. m821a m83rtm Enter TWS User for master cpu or press enter to obtain a list of MDM users listed in the TWSRegistry.dat file -> Figure 1 MDM definition directory

7. Provide the Tivoli Workload Scheduler user for the MDM that will be used to manage FTA workstations that will be patched. The script will determine if the provided user is valid and display information about the provided user.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Enter TWS User for master cpu or press enter to obtain a list of

MDM users listed in the TWSRegistry.dat file -> m821a


Agent type for user m821a is MDM. m821a is a valid TWS user for a master cpu. TWSPATH for m821a user is: /tws/m821a TWS Master workstation m821a for TWS master user m821a on this workstation will be used to schedule installs. Will create MDM definition file for TWS user -> m821a on TWS master workstation -> m821a. /etc/TWS/MDM.m821a.m821a No existing APPL definition file exists Will need to create a APPL definition file. Will create the tws APPL definition directory /etc/TWS/APPL.tws Application tws will be used. The current process id is 18671, Temporary created files will be created in the /tmp directory and have a .18671 extension. Main Menu To patch a workstation enter (p). To access FTA or job and job stream utilities enter (u). To exit utility enter (e). Enter p, u or e -> Figure 2 Create TWS MDM and application definition directories

The application will create the directory MDM.masteruser.mastername which will serve as the repository for FTA.workstationname files that contain specific FTA information. It will also create the APPL.tws directory, if it does not exist. The APPL.tws directory will serve as the repository for utility scripts that will be sent to FTA workstations.

The extracted value in the "thiscpu" field of localopts for user m82a is: m82a Logon user m82a exists. The TWS user m82a will be used for TWS workstation m82a. Will try to determine OS and current TWS version for FTA m82a. FTA m82a should be linked, this may take a few seconds. Extracted TWS version for m82a is 8.2 Will use TWS version 8.2.0. Extracted OS for m82a is HP-UX. OS HPUX will be used for m82a. Provide base path for patches for FTA m82a on taos on current TWS version. Path should start with slash / -> Figure 10 Validate user and prompt for fixpack base path

11.Provide the fixpack base path for FTA (see base path requirements shown in Example 6). Note: The base path provided must be valid, because it will be used to determine the fixpack directory path.

Example 6

Suggested naming convention. The fixpack directory should have a common base path followed by TWSversion/OS (/patchesbasepath/twsversion/os). Example: Base path directory for AIX FTA currently on TWS 8.3 /images/patches/8.3.0/aix Where: patchesbasepath = /images/patches twsverison = is 8.3.0 (use 3 digit format) os = aix (aix, hpux,linux_i386 or solaris

Figure 13 FTA.ftaworkstation file creation and fixpack prompt

13.You must then provide the fixpack number to install. The fixpack must be a two digit number. The fixpack number will be verified that it exists locally on the FTA, and that it is the same or greater than what is currently installed on the FTA before proceeding. Refer to Figure 14.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

17

Note: When fixpack path for fixpacks is created in the base patch path, it must be fp##, where fp text is in lowercase and ## is fixpack number in two digit format. Provide the two digit fixpack number when replying to fixpack prompt. Because each fixpack includes all fixes for previous fixpacks, entering multiple fixpacks for the same FTA workstation is not required.

Provide TWS 8.2.0 patch level to install, in ## format ie.. 01, 02, 03 Enter TWS patch level of patch -> 10 Level entered is 10 10 TWS patch level 10 will be verified.

Implementing procedures
The fixpack implementation cycle consists of: Specifying FTA(s) that need a fixpack Submitting and launching of the fixpack launch job Installation of the fixpack on spcified FTA workstations New FTA fixpack definitions (new fixpack cycle) may be added once the job and jobs stream definitions from the current fixpack cycle have been added to the

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

65

Tivoli Workload Scheduler database and the patch_job_def file has been renamed. The existing fixpack cycle includes submitting the job stream that includes the fixpack installation jobs and the launching of the fixpack installation jobs. Important: Because fixpack cycles can overlap, great care must be taken to make sure that definitions are not overwritten by the next fixpack cycle. The autoinstall.sh fixpack utility script may be located in any directory. The file should be owned by root and must have execute permissions. Temporary files will be created in the /tmp directory. The temporary files generated by the script will have a .##### extension, where ##### is the process ID. All temporary created files will be removed when exiting the script normally. The following procedures must be performed to install an FTA fixpack: 1. Verify that all FTAs that will be patched are linked, active, and have a current Symphony file. 2. Logon to the master workstation as root user. 3. Run the autoinstall.sh script to define new FTA.workstation definition files FTA Utilities Menu. (Not required if existing FTA.workstation definition files exist.) 4. Run the autoinstall.sh script to create FTA patch installation job definition from the patch option. 5. Run the autoinstall.sh script to export fixpack utility scripts to FTA workstations from the FTA Utilities Menu. (Not required if existing FTA workstations already have the fixpacks utility scripts. This step may be performed anytime prior to the launching of the fixpack installation job.) 6. Run the autoinstall.sh script to create the FTA fixpack installation job stream definitions from the Job and Job Stream Utilities Menu. 7. Verify that the patch_lau_sch_def and patch_succ_sch_def files in the /etc/TWS/MDM.masteruser.mastername directory were created and that the patch_lau_sch_def file includes the fixpack installation jobs for FTA(s). 8. Run the autoinstall.sh script to add FTA patch installation job and job stream definitions to the database from the Job and Job Stream Utilities Menu. 9. Run the autoinstall.sh script to rename the patch_job_def file from the Job and Job Stream Utilities Menu. This step may be performed anytime before the next fixpack installation cycle begins. We suggest that it be done at this time to prevent the combining of fixpacks from two cycles; this will cause the re-application of an existing fixpack.

10.Determine when to submit fixpack installation job streams. 11.Logon to the master workstation as TWSuser or connect to Job Scheduling Console. 12.Submit the TWSPATCH_LAUNCH and TWSPATCH_SUCC job streams. This job streams will be scheduled for the master CPU. Refer to Example 10.
Example 10 Submit TWSPATCH_LAUNCH and TWSPATCH_SUCC job streams

Example: conman command from master %sbs TWSPATCH_LAUNCH %sbs TWSPATCH_SUCC 13.Raise job stream TWSPATCH_LAUNCH limit from 0 to a non-zero number using JSC or conman when you are ready to initiate launching of fixpack installations. Refer to Example 11.
Example 11 Raise TWSPATCH_LAUNCH job stream limit

Example: conman command from master %ads TWSPATCH_LAUNCH;limit=40 14.Raise job stream TWSPATCH_LAUNCH priority from 0 to GO using JSC or conman. Refer to Example 12.
Example 12

Example: conman command from master %ads TWSPATCH_LAUNCH;priority=go 15.Determine when the FTA is ready to launch the patch installation. All Tivoli Workload Scheduler jobs must have completed on FTA. FTA must be linked and have the current Symphony file. FTA must be active; limit may be set to 0 to prevent additional jobs from launching. 16.Raise FTA patch installation job priority from 0 to GO for TWSPATCH_LAUNCH.ftaname_twsversion#_FP_patch# using JSC or conman.

23.You can rerun abended fixpack installation jobs after making changes. Note: Reruns of patch installation jobs will run immediately unless priority is lowered from GO to 0.

Troubleshooting
The creation of the autoinstall.sh patch_install.sh and patch_lau.sh scripts included testing on AIX, HPUX, Linux_i386 and Solaris platforms, and using techniques that worked on these platforms and should not be customized or edited unless suggested by Tivoli Workload Scheduler Level 2 support. Before proceeding to troubleshoot problems with the autoinstall.sh script, please review the following checklist to verify that suggested requirements have been implemented. Refer to Figure 89.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

71

The Autoinstall.sh script runs on the master only. The /etc/TWS/APPL.TWS directory must exist for the Tivoli Workload Scheduler patch or new installations. The utility scripts will be located on FTAs in the /etc/TWS directory. The utility scripts repository on the master will be located in the /etc/TWS/APPS.tws directory and be executable. The utility scripts patch_install.sh and patch_lau.sh must be copied from the repository on the master (/etc/TWS/APPS.tws directory) to the /etc/TWS directory on FTA. If the master and FTA exist on the same workstation/node then the utility scripts must exist in both directories. The root user on FTA must be able to submit ad-hoc jobs to the master as root. The TWSRegistry.dat must be correct and up to date. The .profile for the twsuser must have the TWSHome and TWSHome/bin directory in PATH variable for the master and FTA. You should be able to invoke TWS commands without having to specify the path. The Master and FTA workstation must have a valid Symphony file. The Master workstation must currently be linked to the FTA that will be patched. Root must be able to access Tivoli Workload Scheduler files and databases and exist in the Tivoli Workload Scheduler Security file. The patch utility script will only patch AIX, HPUX, Linux_i386 and Solaris UNIX FTAs. The patch utility script uses Tivoli Workload Scheduler cpuinfo to validate the master and FTA CPUs. The master= field in TWSHome/mozart/globalopts file must be valid and correct on the master workstation. The thiscpu= field in TWSHome/localopts file must be valid and correct on FTA workstation. User validation issues may occur if value is not correct. Ideally the patches path should be an NFS mounted filesystem which is mounted on all FTAs that will be patched using the above naming convention. The patch directory should have a common base path followed by TWSversion/OS (/patchesbasepath/twsversion/os).

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Fixpack logs
The autoinstall.sh generates a few logs. The fixpack job execution which executes the patch_install.sh script will write output to the Tivoli Workload Scheduler job stdlist. The patch_lau.sh script includes tasks which are flagged when completed. The patch_lau.sh writes the ftaname_fp_fp##_jobnum.stdlog file in the /tmp directory. This file may be reviewed to determine the point of failure if the Tivoli Workload Scheduler job abends. These files/logs will be covered in more detail in the following sections. When the fixpack installation completes successfully, a job will exist in the TWSPATCH_SUCC job stream on the master. The job that runs on the master is used to generate FTA fixpack installation record entry in the mdm_mastername_fixpack.log file in the /etc/TWS directory, where mastername is the name of the master that manages the FTA. Refer to Figure 90. $ pwd /etc/TWS $ ll total 160 drwxrwxr-x drwxrwxr-x -rw-rw-r-drwxrwxr-x -rw-rw-rw-rwxr-xr-x -rwxr-xr-x drwxrwxr-x

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

73

Autoinstall.sh script
The script may be edited by the user to troubleshoot errors. The autoinstall.sh script has an option that places it in a debug mode. This option should be implemented if problems occur with the script. Using the debug option will produce a more verbose mode execution. The output error should be sent to Tivoli Workload Scheduler Level 2 for analysis.

Implementing autoinstall.sh in debug mode


To place the autoinstall.sh script in a debug mode, edit the autoinstall.sh script and proceed to the Debug Mode Option section of the script and change DEBUG= option to DEBUG=y. 1. Edit the autoinstall.sh script and change DEBUG= to DEBUG=y. Refer to Figure 92. #Debug Mode Option #To place in debug mode set DEBUG to y DEBUG="";export DEBUG SETVAR="vx";export SETVAR
Figure 92 Debug mode option

2. As root user, invoke the UNIX script -a command and redirect the output to a file called /tmp/autoinstall.log. Refer to Example 15.
Example 15 Script command syntax

Example: script -a /tmp/autoinstall.log 3. Repeat the steps that produced the error. 4. Enter <ctrl> d to terminate the script command. 5. Review and send the /tmp/autoinstall.log to Tivoli Workload Scheduler Level 2 support for analysis.

Patch_install.sh and patch_lau.sh scripts


The fixpack job executes the patch_install.sh script. The patch_install.sh script requires four options, -uname, -patchdir, -version, and patch, to exist before executing the patch_lau.sh script, which initiates the twspatch fixpack installation script.

74

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Because the fixpack job is launched by Tivoli Workload Scheduler, the job stdlist will log all output of the patch_install.sh script. Review the Tivoli Workload Scheduler job stdlist for the fixpack job if job abends. The patch_install.sh script will show which tasks have been completed. Review the job stdlist to determine the task that is having problems. Example 16 is the tail end of the fixpack job stdlist and shows the various tasks and their results. The script is written to display a status of all completed tasks. If the job abends, reviewing the job stdlist will assist in determining that last completed step.

The successful completion of the fixpack job (patch_install.sh script) will launch the patch_lau.sh script. The patch_lau.sh script will log which tasks have been completed.log to the ftaname_fp_fp##_jobnum.stdlog file in the /tmp directory. This file logs all procedures prior to execution of the twspatch installation script. Once the twspatch installation script launches, the fixpack install will write, to the log specified, the fixpack README file. Refer to Example 17.
Example 17

Example: FTA m82a fixpack install of fixpack 10 that had job number 27860 will create the log: m82a_fp_10_27860.stdlog A successful completion of the patch_lau.sh and twspatch fixpack installation script will restart the FTA and issue a SUCC job on the master for FTA. The log file ftaname_fp_fp##_jobnum.stdlog will show the status of all tasks performed. Refer to Figure 93. tail -15 /tmp/m82a_fp_10_27860.stdlog Extract TWS shortname Change to TWS instance home directory Stop and shut TWS processes Terminate processes accessing TWS binaries Display TWS binaries should not show active Change to directory where twspatch exists Display current path Execute the twspatch install Twspatch install FTA start and limit 0 command executed Does SUCC patch schedule exist on Master Patch SUCC job sent to SUCC schedule Patch SUCC job sent to JOBS schedule Exit script

Review the log file ftaname_fp_fp##_jobnum.stdlog, if problems exist. You should be able to determine if the problem was in the patch_lau.sh script or if failure was with the twspatch installation script. Twspatch fixpack installation errors will be written to the log file specified in the fixpack README file.

Common issues
Here are some of the common issues when using this solution: TWSPATCH_LAUNCH job is SUCC, but TWSPATCH_SUCC job does not show up: Action: Review the /tmp/ftaname_fp_##_######.stdlog file for logging of steps. Where: ftaname = name of FTA that was patched ## = two digit fix pack number ##### = job number of patch installation launch If patch job launch is: M82A#M82A_820_FP_10 #J27860 Possible causes: Root user is not allowed to submit ad-hoc jobs to the master. Utility is unable to validate FTA user Action: Review the "thiscpu" variable for FTA localopts file. Possible causes: The value in "thiscpu" does not match the name of the defined FTA on the master. SUCC GO 13:02 00:01

Then, review log /tmp/m82a_fp_10_27860.stdlog

Configuring OPENSSH
SSH can be used instead of telnet to provide an authenticated and encrypted connection to remote computers. SSH can be configured to make connections without needing to provide a password on the remote workstation. This section will explain how to configure SSH so that connections to remote workstations, will not require passwords. SSH must be installed and enabled on local and remote workstation before it can be used.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

77

Please consult your System Administrator for assistance with installation and enabling SSH on the workstations and before performing the following procedures. 1. Logon as the user that will be connecting to the remote workstation as the same user. Example: Logon as larry 2. Verify that SSH is working by connecting to the remote_workstation.domain.com as user "larry" by issuing the following: ssh larry@remote_workstation.domain.com SSH will ask if you want to keep connecting. Type yes, prompt for password, and open a shell in larry's home directory on remote_workstation.domain.com, just like a telnet session. If this fails, a problem exists somewhere. Verify that SSH is installed on the local workstation and verify that remote_workstation.domain.com is accepting SSH connections. 3. Close the remote connection by typing exit. 4. Create the .ssh directory on local workstation in the user's home directory (if the directory does not exist). mkdir .ssh 5. Change to the .ssh directory. Generated private and public SSH keys will be created and placed in this directory. cd .ssh Note: Use Windows Explorer to create the .ssh directory on Windows workstations. 6. Create private and public key pairs so that providing passwords will be not necessary. The following command will create the id_dsa (private) and id_dsa.pub (public) key files. ssh-keygen -t dsa The ssh-keygen program might prompt for the name of key files; depress Enter to accept the default id_dsa file name. The program will then prompt for a passphrase; depress the Enter key unless you want to enter a passphrase. The program will prompt you to confirm the passphrase; depress the Enter key or enter passphrase. The above command creates the keys id_dsa and id_dsa.pub and puts them in the .ssh directory.

78

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Generating public/private dsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/larry/.ssh/id_dsa Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Your identification has been saved in /home/larry/.ssh/id_dsa. Your public key has been saved in /home/larry/.ssh/id_dsa.pub. The key fingerprint is: 09:28:f3:d3:8d:15:d3:8d:c9:67:84:2a:12:51:f6:26 larry@TREK
Figure 94 The ssh-keygen display and prompts

Note: Existing keys id_dsa and id_dsa.pub in the .ssh directory will be overwritten if they already exist. The user will be prompted before they are overwritten. 7. The private key id_dsa must be readable only by the user that created the files. Change permissions of the id_dsa file. chmod 600 id_dsa 8. Place a copy of the public key on the remote workstation. The remote workstation should also be running OpenSSH. You can transfer the id_dsa.pub key to the remote workstation, either by e-mail, ftp, or scp, which is included with SSH. The following example uses scp to copy file from local workstation to the remote workstation. scp .ssh/id_dsa.pub pete@remote_workstation.domain.com: Note: Include the trailing colon ":". You will be prompted for pete's password on the remote workstation before copying begins. The id_dsa.pub file will be copied to pete's home directory on the remote workstation. Copy the public key on the remote workstation to the user's home directory that will receive the connection from the source system. 9. On remote workstation, in local home directory the id_dsa.pub should be placed in the .ssh directory. Create the .ssh directory if it does not exist. 10.Move the id_dsa.pub file to the .ssh directory. 11.Make a backup copy of the authorized_keys file if it exists. cp authorized_keys authorized_keys.orig 12.Append the contents of the id_dsa.pub file to the authorized_keys file.

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

79

13.The .ssh folder on the remote workstation must have the correct permissions; you may set them with chmod: chmod 700 .ssh 14.Verify the password-less connection, from the original workstation, initiate a connection to the remote workstation as the specified user. ssh larry@remote_workstation.domain.com Note: A password-less connection to remote_workstation.domain.com will be established. The use of scp will not require a password either. 15.Close the remote connection by typing exit. Warning: On the local workstation do not remove the id_dsa file, as the id_dsa.pub may be removed.

Authorized_keys file
To view the defined users and workstation that are permitted to connect to the current workstation, without providing a password that exists in the authorized_keys file, execute the following command from .ssh directory: more authorized_keys|grep "="|cut -f2-3 -d "="|tr -d "^="|tr -d "^ " The sample output (Figure 95) from the above command on workstation taos means that the root user from testmaster.ibm.com and larry from TREK are permitted to connect without providing a password. root@testmaster.tivlab.austin.ibm.com larry@TREK
Figure 95 Defined users in authorized_keys file for taos workstation

The sample output (Figure 96) from the above command on the workstation testmaster means that the root user from taos.ibm.com is allowed to connect without providing a password. root@taos.ibm.com
Figure 96 Defined users in authorized_keys file for testmaster workstation

Know_hosts file
An additional file, know_hosts, may exist in the .ssh directory. This file contains the remote host names that this workstation has connected to.

80

Autoinstall.sh Utility Script

Every time you connect to a machine, SSH stores the remote machine's public key (for public key encryption) in a configuration file (unless you chose to continue connecting without adding the host to the known hosts list). It uses this information to verify that you are connecting to the workstation you thought you were connecting to. This warning means that the host you were trying to connect to was not in your database, and so SSH could not verify that it was the right host. This will be the case if it is the first time you use SSH to connect to a remote workstation from a local workstation Connect, let SSH add the host to your list, and you should not see the warning next time you connect to that host.
