Upgrading Model Types and Models From
SPECTRUM 5.0.1
This section contains the procedure for upgrading your SPECTRUM models
if you are upgrading from SPECTRUM 5.0.1. Several management modules
were deprecated since this SPECTRUM version. In addition, see
Postinstallation Scripts and Templates
[page 85] for additional scripts you
must run to upgrade to the latest SPECTRUM version.
MM_dep_50R1_script.pl
The MM_dep_50R1_script.pl script identifies and converts old models. The
script creates a db_conv_template file, using the old model type as old MT
and using GnSNMPDev as the new MT. It then calls DBconv, using the
db_conv_template as a parameter. DBconv finds all old MT models, reads
the attributes listed in the db_conv_template file (including Model_Name,
Network_Address, Community_Name, Security_String, and
Polling_Interval) for each model, copying those values to the
GnSNMPDev-based model.
DBconv then reads the relations that the model is in and sets the same
relations for the new GnSNMPDev model. It then destroys the old model and
continues to the next model. The MM_dep_50R1_script.pl routine also
includes provisions for any Kentrux and LANPlex models found on the
system, directly converting them from older models to newer models.
Procedure
1. Start the SpectroSERVER.
2. Navigate to:
<$SPECROOT>/SS-Tools/MM_Dep_50R1
3. Run the following command:
MM_dep_50R1_script.pl <SpectroSERVER host> <landscape handle>
4. After the script runs, check the Dep_Log_50R1_<DATE>_<TIME> file to
see if all models converted.
If a model was not in contact when the script was running, it will not
be converted. Ensure that the devices are active on the system and
repeat step 3
and step 4 until you have confirmed that all models are
converted. If a WARNING.txt file exists, a model did not convert
because of its contact status, and unconverted models are identified
in this file. If any model still has not converted after repeating this
