CMOD 10.1 ODEWK

[Dylan]

Hello All,

Right now we are going through an update from CMOD MP 9.5 to CMOD MP 10.1, in production we are currently running ODWEK v9 on our webservers which we have tested is working for us in 10.1.  My question is down the road if we have to or want to upgrade our ODWEK to 10.1 on our webservers is there a way to do that without having to install the full OnDemand suite as ODWEK is now bundled with CMOD 10.1.  I saw in the readme for 10.1 that the ODWEK portion is in the …\IBM\www directory of your OnDemand install directory.  Is it as simple as copying that folder structure and its contents to our webserver or is it more difficult/not possible?

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks

The documented process is to install the full CMOD package.  It's not that large, and you don't have to configure the CMOD server, just ODWEK.  You can try deleting a few directories if you're seriously space-constrained.  Also, look into the whitepaper on CMOD and Docker if you're looking to implement it that way:  http://CMOD.co/docker

I've been going down this path for the past few months, and JD please correct me if I am wrong..

Per discussion with IBM, it's just a matter of us replacing our existing ODApi.jar file, with the new one that comes installed with the base 10.1. I will probably install and keep the entire CMOD package on the server, because tools like arstfmt will come in handy with problem analysis (At least keep it on one of the lower tiers..)..and probably just copy the ODApi.jar from my sandbox all the way up to prod.

Also - an upgrade I did in 2016 from 8.5 to 9.5, we just had to upgrade CMOD to 9.5 on our library servers, and get the appropriate version of the jar for our web team. I believe it was wintel, so I downloaded the entire 9.5 server package for windows, and threw the ODApi.jar on a share, and let them handle the rest. It worked fine from what I remember.
