Upgrade Guide

When you upgrade from the JetNet middleware adapter to Oracle Tuxedo, do not install the Oracle Tuxedo version over the JetNet version. The Oracle Tuxedo product should be installed in a separate directory.

Once the Oracle Tuxedo product is installed, you need to make the following changes in your application directory:

• Change the SMBASE setting to the Panther for Oracle Tuxedo installation. For UNIX application servers, SMBASE is set in machine.env and in setup.sh. For Windows application servers, it is set in machine.env and in the Windows System Environment.

• Because the following variables use SMBASE in their settings, their settings will also be updated:

  • PATH

  • LD_LIBRARY_PATH, SHLIB_PATH, or LIBPATH

• Update the server executables.

  • For UNIX, remove the existing links to the server executables and create new ones to the executables in the Oracle Tuxedo installation.

  • For Windows, remove the existing copies of the server executables and copy the ones from the Oracle Tuxedo installation.
