Applying the hotfix manually (DBAT not available)

We recommend that you apply a hotfix to the StreamServe repositories using Control Center or by running the hotfix_repo script in DBAT as described in:

•	Applying the hotfix in Control Center

•	Applying the hotfix without Control Center

If neither Control Center, nor DBAT are available, you can apply the hotfix to the repositories manually.

Prerequisites

•	The login details for the database administration user that you originally used to create the repository must be available.

•	The Hotfix Setup has been run and the database hotfixes are installed in:

–	Windows – <Base directory>\<Version>\root\config\database\

Where <Base directory> is the path specified for Design Center Projects during the Framework and StreamServer installation.
For example: C:\ManagementGateway

–	UNIX – <Project location>/config/database/

Where <Project location> is the Project location specified during the Framework and StreamServer installation.
For example: /opt/streamserve/root

Preparations and recommendations

Before applying the hotfix to a repository, we recommend the following:

•	Make sure that no other users are connected to the repository. If possible, set the repository to single user mode.

•	Stop all applications accessing the repository.

•	For the runtime repository: Make sure that all jobs running against the repository are completed.

•	Perform a backup of the repository.

•	For UNIX, you must manually set STRS_JAVA_HOME to a suitable JRE (only if the OpenText StreamServe Setup has not been run previously).

Always read the hotfix documentation for additional preparations for a specific hotfix.
