Additional Tests for Downgrade

Availability of ActiveMatrix Administrator

This test checks the availability for the ActiveMatrix Administrator server. To downgrade successfully, ActiveMatrix Administrator is required to be running.

  • Success: If an ActiveMatrix Administrator server is found to be running or one of the servers is running in case of replicated setup, test displays OK.
  • Warning: If none of the ActiveMatrix Administrators are available, the test returns Warning.
    Note: If you are downgrading CONFIG_HOME that does not have ActiveMatrix Administrator (SystemHost), it is not required for ActiveMatrix Administrator to be running.
    Note: When downgrading ActiveMatrix Administrator host or SystemHost, the ActiveMatrix Administrator server must be running before starting the downgrade process. The downgrade script starts ActiveMatrix Administrator server (if not running) automatically and then proceed with the downgrade.

Availability of Old Platform Application Backup .zip Files

After hosts and nodes are downgraded, the next step involves reverting platform applications on each node. For this, the downgrade process needs old backup files that were created for each node during the upgrade. This test checks whether the backup files are available for downgrade.

  • Success: If backup files for all nodes are found, the test returns OK.
  • Failure: If any of the backup files for nodes are missing, the test returns Failure.
    Note: Backup .zip files are located under CONFIG_HOME\tibamx_hostmanager\OldPlatFormAppsBackup\.
