Installing and Uninstalling CWM 15.3.00 P1

Backing Up the Existing Database

Use this procedure to back up the existing database to preparation for installing the patch. You should back up the database in case a problem exists with Informix.

Step 1 Find a location with enough space and create a directory at this location. In the examples below the directory is called <dbexport-location>. In each command below, substitute the name you assigned.

# mkdir /usr/users/svplus/<dbexport-location>

For example,

# mkdir /usr/users/svplus/DBExports153

where <dbexport-location> is DBExports153.

Step 2 Use these steps to export the databases:

a.Log in as svplus: hostname# su -u svplus

The system prompts you for the svplus password.

b.Stop the core.

c.Perform a coldstart (drops all network data so you will export only the user data in each database):

#coldstart

d.Export the stratacom database:

#dbexport stratacom -o <dbexport-location>

e.Export the scmdb database:

#dbexport scmdb -o <dbexport-location>

f.Export the statsdb database:

#dbexport statsdb -o <dbexport-location>

Step 3 If you have a WANDEST server installed, export the WANDEST database:

# dbexport wandest -o <dbexport-location>

Step 4 Get the output of onstat –d

# onstat -d > <dbexport-location>/onstat.out

Installing the CWM Server Patch

Use this procedure to install the CWM Server Patch.

Step 1 Stop stats collection and disable stats on the VXSM.

Step 2 Log in to the CWM server as user root:

#su

Step 3 Stop the core.

Step 4 Download or copy the compressed tar files for the CWM server to a temporary location, such as /tmp:

#cp 15.3.00-P1_CWM.tar.gz /tmp

Step 5 Change to local directory that contains the compressed tar files:

# cd /tmp

15.3.00P1 specifications

Cisco Systems 15.3.00P1 is a pivotal release in the evolution of Cisco's IOS (Internetwork Operating System). This version introduces a range of features and enhancements aimed at improving network reliability, security, and performance. Built to support various networking scenarios, 15.3.00P1 serves as a robust platform for enterprises and service providers alike.

One of the standout features of 15.3.00P1 is its enhanced support for IPv6, which is increasingly vital as the internet continues to evolve. This version includes improved routing protocols and mechanisms that allow seamless integration and transition between IPv4 and IPv6. This dual-stack support ensures that network operators can manage their resources efficiently while preparing for the future.

Quality of Service (QoS) enhancements in Cisco IOS 15.3.00P1 help prioritize critical traffic flows, enabling organizations to allocate bandwidth according to application needs. This is particularly beneficial in environments where latency-sensitive applications, such as VoIP and video conferencing, are prevalent.
