There are two ways to perform this upgrade,<\/p>\n
1. Updating Installation Manager on a computer that have Internet access<\/p>\n
2. Updating Installation Manager on a computer that doesn’t have Internet access<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Below is the process for upgrade to a later version,<\/p>\n
1. Updating Installation Manager on a computer that have Internet access<\/p>\n
Navigate to <IIM Installation Location>\/eclipse\/tools directory,<\/p>\n
Execute the command, .\/imcl install com.ibm.cic.agent<\/p>\n
This will be sufficient for an IBM installation Manager upgrade.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2. Updating Installation Manager on a computer that doesn’t have Internet access<\/p>\n
When we don’t have any internet access (an ideal case for every customer) proceed with following commands,<\/p>\n
Download the installer package, agent.installer.platform<\/var>\u200b\u200b_version<\/var>.zip<\/samp>, or the fix pack, com.ibm.cic.agent.offering\u200b\u200b_version<\/var>.zip\u200b<\/samp>, to update Installation Manager<\/span>.<\/p>\n Create a new directory and Unzip the agent.installer.platform<\/var>\u200b\u200b_version<\/var>.zip file<\/p>\n Navigate to IIM tools directory and execute below command,<\/p>\n .\/imcl install com.ibm.cic.agent -repositories installation_files<\/var>\/repository.config -preferences offering.service.repositories.areUsed=false<\/p>\n Example: .\/imcl install com.ibm.cic.agent -repositories \/IIM\/IIM17\/repository.config -preferences offering.service.repositories.areUsed=false<\/p>\n This command is enough to upgrade the IIM from v1.4 to 1.7 (in my case).
