EPM install/upgrade diff OS

Hi,

Quick question regarding to install and upgrade EPM products.

I have a client with the current scenario:

EPM 11.1.2.3 with some products on Windows and some products on Linux. All machines have OHS and Foundation services.

They want to upgrade to 11.1.2.4.

One of the products needs to remains on 11.1.2.3.

Questions:

1) Can i not upgrade only 1 product?

2) Do I need OHS and Foundation services in every machine?

3) How to make all products from diff machine to identify only 1 URL? Is this the Config web server in the main machine only?

Are my assumptions correct?

1) All configs (configTool) will need to be done in every single machine

2) Needs to connect to a "previously configured HSS" for all servers

Thanks

Cheers,

Raf

    You will need to upgrade all products, you don't need to have ohs/foundation on all machines not sure why it has been configured like that, OHS will handle the proxying so you just connect through OHS.

    You need to config on all machines and connect to a previous configured shared services databases except on the first time config.

    Hi

    For the remaining questions

    Are my assumptions correct?

    1) All configs (configTool) will need to be done in every single machine

    Yes, we install and configure on every server. So ConfitTool needs to be run on all servers.

    2) Needs to connect to a "previously configured HSS" for all servers

    First you always configure Foundation Server then rest of the servers. Each server asks for HSS details only the first time , this is to ensure that your Foundation Server (HSS Registry) knows all the servers that are in the environment. Yes, you need to choose "Previously Configured HSS" for rest of the servers.



    Thanks
