4 Welcome Welcome This guide outlines the steps required for upgrading GoAnywhere MFT to the latest version. Before You Begin Check if there are any updates available for GoAnywhere MFT by logging in to its browser interface as a user with the Product Administrator role. From the main menu bar, point to Help and then click Check for Updates. The system checks for updates and provides you with further upgrade options. The Check for Update process provides guidance to upgrade GoAnywhere MFT to the latest version. Since GoAnywhere MFT must be restarted to apply the updates, it is important that you perform the upgrade process when no projects or file transfers are active in GoAnywhere MFT. It is recommended that you clean up the temporary workspace by deleting the older files and subfolders from under the folder named [installfolder]/userdata/workspace Requires Java 7 Minimum Your Java Virtual Machine must be upgraded to Java 7 or later, and any prior versions of the bundled JRE must be removed before you can upgrade to GoAnywhere MFT See the Upgrading the JAVA Virtual Machine topic for more information. Browser Compatibility The GoAnywhere MFT Administrator and Web Client interface's require modern internet browsers that support HTML 5. Popular browsers are supported including Internet Explorer*, Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Please note that some HTML 5 advanced features, such as drag and drop, will not work in older versions of browsers. * GoAnywhere MFT supports Microsoft Internet Explorer 9, 10 and 11.

Your current installed version can be found by pointing to the Help menu and then clicking About. GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 7

8 Upgrading the Java Virtual Machine (JRE) Upgrading the Java Virtual Machine (JRE) GoAnywhere MFT requires Java or later. Depending on the operating system, GoAnywhere MFT may use a JRE that is bundled with the application or it may use an existing JRE which is already installed. Follow the steps below to determine which JRE is being used and then take the appropriate upgrade steps. If GoAnywhere MFT is using JRE version 1.8, it must be at least 1.8.0_45. Determine Java (JRE) version and Location 1. From the menu bar, point to Help, then click About. 2. In the About window, click the System Info tab. 3. On the System Info tab, verify the Java Version and the Java Home values. If the Java Home is configured to [INSTALL_DIR]/jre or [INSTALL_DIR]/jre6, you are using the embedded JRE. Use the Upgrade instructions below to upgrade your embedded JRE. If the Java Home is configured to any other directory, you are using an external JRE. Upgrade your external JRE to Java or later. Cleaning Up Existing Embedded JRE Folders Even if GoAnywhere MFT is using an external JRE, it is possible than an embedded JRE still exists within the application. If so, the upgrader may attempt to use the embedded JRE rather than the one used to start GoAnywhere. In order to prevent the upgrader from using the old embedded JRE, you must remove the [INSTALL_DIR]/jre folder, or rename the [INSTALL_ DIR]/jre to something like [INSTALL_DIR]/jre.old. Upgrading the External JRE Follow your Java vendor's instructions to upgrade your External JRE. Once the JRE is upgraded to or later, ensure the unlimited strength JCE policy files are installed and the Java execution environment is correct: JCE Policy Files Before GoAnywhere MFT can be started or upgraded using the new JRE, it requires installation of the unlimited strength JCE policy files. To use the unlimited strength policy files, copy the US_export_policy.jar file and the local_policy.jar file from the jce_policy_files/oracle/1_7 folder (located in the GoAnywhere MFT installation folder) to the jre/lib/security folder (located in the JRE's installation directory). For IBM platforms (e.g. AIX), copy the JCE policy files of US_export_policy.jar and local_policy.jar from the jce_ policy_files/ibm folder (located under the GoAnywhere MFT installation folder) to the jre/lib/security folder (located under the JRE's installation directory). Changing JAVA_HOME For Linux The JAVA_HOME environment variable needs to be set to the appropriate location for Java 1.7 (or later). To set the Java version used to run GoAnywhere MFT on Linux, run the following command before executing the GoAnywhere MFT upgrade script. export JAVA_HOME='/path/to/jre' '/path/to/jre' is the absolute path to the JRE, for example: '/usr/lib/jvm/jdk7/jre' GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 8

9 Upgrading the Embedded JRE (Windows) Changing JAVA_Home For Windows The JAVA_HOME environment variable needs to be set to the appropriate location for Java 1.7 (or later). To set the Java version used to run GoAnywhere MFT on Windows, run the following command before executing the GoAnywhere MFT upgrade script. 1. Open the Control Panel and navigate to System And Security > System. 2. Click the Advanced system settings link. 3. On the Advanced tab, select Environment Variables, and then edit JAVA_HOME to point to where the JDK software is located, for example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_02. Upgrading the Embedded JRE (Windows) Use the following instructions to upgrade the embeded Java version to 1.7 on Windows installations: 1. Determine the architecture of your GoAnywhere install. Log in to GoAnywhere and navigate to the Help > About page. Click on the System Properties tab and search for the property 'os.arch'. a. amd64 indicates 64 bit architecture b. i386 indicates 32 bit architecture 2. Download the appropriate JRE bundle. a. b Shut down GoAnywhere. 4. Navigate to the installation directory. By default, this is C:\Program Files\Linoma Software\GoAnywhere 5. Rename the old 'jre' folder to 'jre.old' 6. In some cases, this folder might be called 'jre6'. If so, rename this file to 'jre6.old'. If both 'jre' and 'jre6' folders exist, rename both folders. 7. Create a new 'jre' folder in the installation directory and copy the downloaded JRE bundle into that directory 8. Extract the contents of the JRE bundle into the current directory.

15 Linux/UNIX Upgrade Instructions Linux/UNIX Upgrade Instructions Prior to beginning the upgrade, Linoma Software suggests that you move any previous backup files (e.g. backup 2, backup 3, etc.) out of the [installfolder/backup] folder (where [installfolder] is the location where GoAnywhere MFT is installed). 1. Rename the downloaded upgrade file to ga_upgrade.jar 2. Copy the downloaded upgrade file to [installfolder]/upgrader, where /usr/local/linoma_software/goanywhere is the default installation directory of GoAnywhere MFT. 3. Sign into the GoAnywhere MFT browser-based Administrator and verify there are no active jobs or transfers before proceeding. 4. Login to the system as a root user and open a terminal window. 5. Stop the GoAnywhere MFT service: a. Change the working directory to the directory where GoAnywhere MFT is installed. For example: cd /usr/local/linoma_software/goanywhere b. Stop the GoAnywhere MFT application server by executing the following shell script:./goanywhere.sh stop 6. Check the size on the [installfolder]/tomcat/logs/catalina.out file. If it is larger than 5 megabytes, rename the file and move it to a different folder outside the [installfolder] location. 7. If the GoAnywhere MFT database is configured to run on a database other than the embedded Derby database, make a backup of that external database before continuing. 8. Change the directory to [installfolder]/upgrader. 9. Run the upgrade.sh file to start the upgrade process. When complete, a message indicates the upgrade was successful. 10. Start the GoAnywhere MFT service: a. Change the working directory to the directory where GoAnywhere MFT is installed. For example: cd /usr/local/linoma_software/goanywhere b.

16 IBM i Upgrade Instructions IBM i Upgrade Instructions 1. Rename the downloaded upgrade file to ga_upgrade.jar. 2. Copy the downloaded upgrade file to [installfolder]/upgrader on the IFS, where /linoma/goanywhere/ is the default installation directory of GoAnywhere MFT. If GoAnywhere MFT is installed in a different directory, substitute with that directory. 3. Sign into the GoAnywhere MFT browser-based Administrator and verify there are no active jobs or transfers before proceeding. 4. Sign on to an IBM i session with the QSECOFR user profile or with a profile that has *ALLOBJ authority. If using an external database (DB2), the database user profile must have the *ALLOBJ authority to make changes to the database during the upgrade. 5. Stop the GoAnywhere MFT subsystem by executing the IBM i command of ENDGA. The ENDGA command is located in the installation library, which is named GOANYWHERE by default. Wait until the GoAnywhere MFT subsystem is completely shutdown before proceeding. 6. Verify there are no locks on the GoAnywhere MFT installation library or objects. Do not proceed with the upgrade until all locks are released. Run the following command to check for locks (assuming GOANYWHERE is the install library): WRKOBJLCK OBJ(GOANYWHERE) OBJTYPE(*LIB) 7. Check the size on the [installfolder]/tomcat/logs/catalina.out file. If it is larger than 5 megabytes, rename the file and move it to a different folder outside the [installfolder] location. 8. Run the SAVPRD command in the installation library. This saves the installation library to a save file, saves the matching folder to a save file, then saves both of those to a third save file, the name and location of which will be requested when you prompt the SAVPRD command. Specify a location to save the file in a library outside the installation library. 9. If the GoAnywhere MFT database is configured to run on a database other than the embedded Derby database, make a backup of that external database before continuing. The SAVPRD can be used to backup the external database library when running on DB2/400. Other database types require a manual backup. 10. Apply the upgrade by executing the UPGRADEGA command. The UPGRADEGA command is located in the installation library, which is named GOANYWHERE by default. 11. The user profile starting the subsystem must have *RWX permission to the GoAnywhere MFT installation folder and the entire directory tree. On V7R1 and later, a command is provided to change the authority on an entire directory tree. In this example '/linoma/goanywhere' is the installation directory and PGUSER will be the user profile that will be starting the subsystem. CHGAUT OBJ('/linoma/goanywhere') USER(PGUSER) DTAAUT(*RWX) OBJAUT(*ALL) SUBTREE(*ALL) 12. Start the GoAnywhere MFT subsystem by executing the IBM i command of STRGA. The STRGA command is located in the installation library, which is named GOANYWHERE by default. 13. Before logging into the upgraded version of GoAnywhere MFT, each user should press CTRL + F5 from their browser to clear the cache. GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 16

17 Upgrading a Cluster Environment Upgrading a Cluster Environment The following steps will ensure a successful upgrade when upgrading GoAnywhere MFT in a cluster environment. The whole cluster must be brought down during the upgrade as the first system upgraded will make core changes to the external shared database. Each server in the cluster will need a new license when upgrading to GoAnywhere MFT. When planning for downtime during the upgrade, you will only be down for the time it takes to upgrade the coordinator (first system). 1. Bring down all GoAnywhere MFT instances in the cluster. 2. Run the upgrade process for your specific operating system on a server in the cluster. During this upgrade, all required changes are made to the shared database. Windows Upgrade Instructions Linux/Unix Upgrade Instructions IBM i Upgrade Instructions After the first upgraded server has made the required changes to the shared database, each additional server will detect the updated database and only update its file system with the necessary changes. 3. Start the GoAnywhere MFT subsystem or service on the server after it is upgraded. If this is the first server to be upgraded, it will assume the coordinator role. If this is not the first server to be upgraded, verify the server has joined the cluster. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each additional server in the cluster. GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 17

18 Downgrading GoAnywhere MFT Downgrading GoAnywhere MFT When an upgrade is performed, the upgrade process makes a backup of folders and files that could be changed during upgrade. These files are placed in [installfolder]/backup (where [installfolder] is the location where GoAnywhere MFT is installed). If the backup folder already exists when an upgrade starts, the existing backup directory will be renamed to backup 2, backup 3, etc. The most recent backup will always be in the base backup directory. If the upgrade fails before the backup directory is successfully created, then no changes will be made and you can restart GoAnywhere MFT. The upgrade creates an upgrade log, which displays the location of the backup folder. Example of the upgrade log: Installed Version: Upgrading to: Checking the server status... GoAnywhere Server appears to be down. Okay to upgrade. Backing up currently installed files Created the backup directory: /linoma/goanywhere/backup Backup was created in: /linoma/goanywhere/backup If you choose to downgrade GoAnywhere MFT, any changes to projects, resources, or any other GoAnywhere MFT configuration settings made after the upgrade will be lost when the rollback is performed. The rollback returns GoAnywhere MFT to the state it was just before the upgrade was performed. If the new version of GoAnywhere MFT is deemed unfit, a rollback can be performed using the following steps: 1. Stop the GoAnywhere subsystem or service. 2. Make a copy of the [installfolder] for archive purposes. 3. Delete the following folders in the [Installdirectory] (a copy of these folders should exist in the /backup directory): adminroot as2root config dbscripts ghttpsroot lib messages proddata tomcat GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 18

19 Downgrading GoAnywhere MFT 4. If running on the embedded Derby database, the [InstallDirectory]/backup folder will contain a 'userdata' folder. DO NOT remove the corresponding 'userdata' folder from the install directory. To Rollback the derby database, navigate to [InstallDirectory]/userdata/database/goanywhere and remove all files and folders. Copy the backup of the Derby datbase from [InstallDirectory]/backup/userdata/database/goanywhere/* to the now empty [InstallDirectory]/userdata/database/goanywhere. If GoAnywhere MFT was upgraded from GoAnywhere Services, the database folder may be 'gaservices' instead of 'goanywhere'. If using an external database, restore that database to the backup made just prior to upgrading GoAnywhere MFT. 5. Copy the contents of the [installfolder]/backup folder to the [installfolder]. 6. Ensure the user profile used to start GoAnywhere has ownership authority to the restored files. On IBM i and Unix/Linux systems, ensure the user profile used to start GoAnywhere has execute permission to all shell scripts (*.sh). 7. Navigate to the [installfolder]/tomcat/work folder and delete all files present in that folder. 8. Start the GoAnywhere MFT subsystem or service. GoAnywhere MFT Upgrade Guide 19
