SPECTRUM Installation/Uninstallation Programs
Known Anomalies: SPECTRUM Installation/Uninstallation Programs
Item Description Solution
1 When you run Host Evaluation on a non-
English Windows NT operating system,
you receive a warning that you have a
missing operating system patch and you
should contact your system
administrator to correct it. This warning
appears when the Host Evaluation
program fails to detect either Service
Pack 5 or 6.
Service Pack 5 or 6 is required to run
SPECTRUM.
2 On Windows NT, you cannot install
SPECTRUM into a directory that contains
a space in the directory name.
Aprisma is investigating a solution for
this issue.
3 On Solaris 2.7, when you upgrade in
place from SPECTRUM 5.0 rev1 with CS4
MMS4 to SPECTRUM 6.5.1, the
installation fails if the SpectroSERVER
and Archive Manager were not run prior
to the migration. You receive the error
message:
** Error during Creation of DDM
database save file
The ddm_save program fails to save a
database if it contains no data. Normally,
empty databases are not migrated.
If migration of the current DDM
landscape handle is not possible, delete
the DDM directory.
To delete the DDM directory, navigate to
the install directory and type:
rm -rf SS/DDM
Then complete one of the following two
actions:
1. Run the SPECTRUM installation. This
initializes the DDM database without
running the ddm_save program.
or
2. Run the previous release of
SPECTRUM long enough to populate the
DDM database with some events or
statistics; then shut down and perform
the migration installation.

this issue.
