[LDM #EIW-321327]: Updating ldm



Hi Carol,

re:

OK.  Like I said, I was just curious.

re:

OK.

The make_aws.log file indicates that the build went to completion
with no errors.  It also pointed out that 'root' needs to execute
the 'make root-actions' step to finish the build:

NOTE: The command "make root-actions" will have to be executed by the
superuser in order to complete the installation process.

make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/ldm/ldm-6.13.2/src'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ldm/ldm-6.13.2/src'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ldm/ldm-6.13.2/src'

So, it looks like you need to:

sudo su -
cd ~ldm/ldm-6.13.2/src
make root-actions
exit

<as 'ldm'>
cd ~ldm
ldmadmin stop && rm runtime && ln -s ldm-6.13.2 runtime && ldmadmin start

re:

This is probably saying that you did not do the last steps that I
indicated above.

re:

The name that the machine will report in 'ldmadmin config' is the
name that is specified in the <hostname></hostname> setting in
the LDM registry file, ~ldm/etc/registry.xml.  This setting does
_not_ get changed when the machine gets renamed since the registry
file is only updated (after initial creation) by the 'ldm' user
either by editing the file directly or by changing individual
values by running the LDM utility 'regutil'.

Cheers,

Tom
