Things to avoid during installation and upgrade
The following things should be avoided when you install or upgrade OpsCenter components:
See Disclaimer.
Do not stop the installer forcefully or kill services or processes like setup.exe, msiexec.exe, OpsCenter services etc. when database upgrade, installation, or uninstallation is in progress.
Do not stop services when the database migration or upgrade is in progress.
Do not install OpsCenter components on network mounts. Installing OpsCenter components on network mounts is not supported.
Do not uninstall the OpsCenter base package directly if release updates and language packs are installed on UNIX. Veritas recommends that you uninstall the release updates and language packs before uninstalling the base version on UNIX.
For example, if you want to completely uninstall OpsCenter from a UNIX machine, first uninstall release updates and language packs and then uninstall OpsCenter software.
If you have deployed third-party reporting tools for generating reports, you should avoid using the SELECT database operation during OpsCenter database upgrade.
If you have deployed third-party network-monitoring tools to monitor OpsCenter services, disable these tools during OpsCenter database upgrade.
