Hi Thomas, A dbVersion value of 54 indicates that the database has been upgraded
I also see that there is alternating information about the ARServer being secondary serher AT least when it is validating FTS ports If the database was a copy from another environment which was part of a server group, then perform the flowing steps Remove the old arerror log and armonitor log files and restart the arsystem services. If the reserves starts successfully the perform the following steps Delete records from table servgrp_board and servgrp_resources Change db version value to what is currently on prevdbversion column and remove the value from prevdbversion On the AR config file, set multiple ar servers to false and server group member to false. Also ensure that there are no references for secondary server for any plugins or any features. Comment those lines out, if you find any Remove any files from the temp directory to have clean set of install log files Ensure that the arsystem server licenses are valid and you are able to create new records in any for that already have more than 2000 entries Also set the min and max values for private queues, fast and list threads to the current and recommended maximum value for your infrastructure Now run the installer and let us know how it goes Thanks Satya Gandhi On 6 Oct 2017 6:29 pm, "Thomas Miskiewicz" <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > Hi, > > the dbVersion is 54. > > Server is not part of the server group, still the stupid installer says: > server is NOT server group member, server IS server group member, server is > NOT server group member … why? > > (Oct 06 2017 02:29:12.122 PM +0200),CONFIG,com.bmc.install.task. > InstallationPropertiesHelper, > LOG EVENT {Description=[SET PROPERTY BMC_AR_SERVER_GROUP_MEMBER], > Detail=[F]} > > [className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Num-Preload-Schema-Segments, , 25, searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]], > [className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, Num-Preload-Threads, , 10, > searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]], [className=com.bmc.install. > product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Application-Enable, F, T, setCFGentry]], [className=com.bmc.install. > product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Large-Result-Logging-Threshold, , 1000000, setCFGentry]], > [className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, Max-Log-History, , 8, > setCFGentry]], [className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, Max-Log-File-Size, , > 134217728, setCFGentry]]]], [level=Database Only Server Group > Configuration,commands=[[className=com.bmc.install. > product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Server-Group-Member, , F, searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]], [level=AR Server > Group Configuration,commands=[[className=com.bmc.install. > product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Server-Group-Member, , T, searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]], [level=Configure > JMX,commands=[[className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, Jmx-port, , 61500, > searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]], [level=Configure JMS,commands=[[className=com. > bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Default-messaging-port, , 61617, searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]], [level=AR > Server Atrium SSO Configurati > > > > (Oct 06 2017 02:47:07.676 PM +0200),INFO,com.bmc.smbu. > install.common.rule.engine.StageGroup, > LOG EVENT {Description=[Skipping execution of > stage],Detail=[[level=Database Only Server Group Configuration,commands=[[ > className=com.bmc.install.product.arsuitekit.platforms. > arsystemservers.task.ARServerUpdateConfigurationEnt > ry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, Server-Group-Member, , F, > searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]]]} > (Oct 06 2017 02:47:07.676 PM +0200),INFO,com.bmc.smbu. > install.common.rule.engine.Stage, > LOG EVENT {Description=[Executing stage [level=AR Server Group > Configuration,commands=[[className=com.bmc.install. > product.arsuitekit.platforms.arsystemservers.task. > ARServerUpdateConfigurationEntry,arguments=[/ESP/usr/ar/ARSE1/conf/ar.conf, > Server-Group-Member, , T, searchKEYandREPLACEvalue]]]]]} > (Oct 06 2017 02:47:07.676 PM +0200),INFO,com.bmc.smbu. > install.common.rule.engine.extension.ExtensionCommand, > LOG EVENT {Description=[Executing extension Command]} > > etc. > > arsystem_install_log.txt attached > > ARSystemInstalledConfiguration.xml didn’t exist but it was created after > the first failed installation.
