Caché Upgrade Checklists - InterSystems Documentation

Operators• The Dreamweaver extension now requires Cache 5.1 on the server for operation.• The following directory must be present in the %path% environment variable,\Program Files\Common Files\Intersystems11.3 Operators11.3.1 System Management PortalPrior to this version, how Caché was administered depended heavily on the platform where Caché ran. With version 5.1,InterSystems introduces a new administrative interface that is common across all platforms. Caché 5.1 now uses a browserbasedinterface, the System Management Portal, for system management.A brief summary can be found in the Administrator section of this document and more complete information on the SystemManagement Portal can be found in the System Administration documentation.11.3.2 PERFMON And %SYS.MONLBL CoordinationThese utilities each use some of the same Caché data structures for gathering data. So they should not execute at the sametime; otherwise there is a risk that they may compromise each other's data. In version 5.1, program checks have been addedto prevent their simultaneous execution.11.3.3 Backup Information ChangesBeginning with version 5.1, the location where the backup database list is maintained has been changed. ^SYS("BACK-UPCHUI") is no longer used. The list is maintained by the methods, Backup.General.AddDatabaseToList() andBackup.General.RemoveDatabaseFromList(). Moreover, InterSystems strongly recommends against setting it manuallysince this works at cross-purposes with the methods. Use the System Management Portal or the ^BACKUP utility instead.11.3.4 New Question In Journal RestoreIn prior versions, the journal restore routine, ^JRNRESTO, did not properly handle the restoration of journal files writtenon different operating systems. The error occurred in the handling of directory names specified by those systems.Caché version 5.1 now accounts for this by asking whether the journal was produced on a different kind of operating system.However, if a site is using a script to drive the journal restore, the script will have to be modified to provide an answer tothe new question.11.3.5 Cluster Member Startup ImprovedThe logic for a Caché instance to join a member of a cluster has been improved to avoid confusion between systems makingup the cluster.
