Issue/Symptom/Question

My company is going through an upgrade to 26.1 and I need to set up servers for the upgrade project. What is required to have these servers ready for the upgrade?

Applies To

On premise customers upgrading to 26.1.

Resolution/Fix/Answer

Database Server:  OS Redhat 8

  • Network is configured with DNS, Domain, and IP address

  • The following mount points are setup, with space equal to or greater than existing setup:

    • /opt/app/penta – PENTA executables and logs reside here

    • /u01 – oracle installed here

    • /u02 – oracle databases reside here

    • /u03 – oracle controlfile/redo logs and database backups write here

  • Root password is set to a unique password, and provided to Lauren Cook via a secure method.

  • Redhat subscription registered

  • SSH is on and enabled for root

  • Connection to current server is allowed

Windows Servers:  Windows Server 2022

  • Provide accounts with local admin privileges. (pentaadmin and pentaservice)

  • RDP enabled

  • SSL Certificate installed on OnBase server and Web server

  • Connection to the Database server (for DMZ only port 1521 is required, for Onbase and Penta for Windows, 1)

  • DNS record created for the Linux server for domain and DMZ

 

 

After the above has been completed, please ensure connectivity to the new servers and reach out to the Upgrade Team so we can verify that we can connect.Â
