Info

Use of MZ_HOME backup

The MZ_HOME backup is needed in case the upgrade fails.

  1. If you are performing an upgrade of a system with large configurations, you may need to increase the maximum number of file descriptors.

Info

Example - Changing the maximum number of file descriptors on Linux

$ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
5000
$ su - root
Password:
$sysctl -w fs.file-max=100000

  1. Create a directory to use when unpacking this release and future releases. For the purpose of these instructions, this designated directory is referred to as the staging directory.

    Note
    titleNote!

    The staging directory should not be the same directory as the one you created and set up as the MZ_HOME directory.

  2. Place the *.tgz file from your release delivery into the staging directory.

  3. Use a command line tool, go to the staging directory, and unpack the *.tgz file by running the following command:

    Code Block
    $ tar xvzf <filename>.tgz

    A directory is then created in the staging directory, containing the software to be installed. For the purpose of these instructions, this directory is referred to as the release content directory.

  4. Now copy the MZ license file into the release content directory.
