How to Deploy a Data Flow Probe CUP

This task describes how to deploy a cumulative update package (CUP) for Data Flow Probes (Windows/Linux) connected to UCMDB.

Search for	Example	Results
A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

Note

This task describes how to deploy the Probe CUP from within the UCMDB user interface. For instruction on deploying the Data Flow Probe CUP manually on an individual Probe, see How to Deploy a Data Flow Probe CUP Manually.
Upgrading Data Flow Probes that operate in separate mode is not supported. To perform an upgrade, see How to Deploy a Data Flow Probe CUP Manually.
Download CUPs from the ITOM Marketplace site. For more information, see Universal Discovery Community. For detailed instructions on how to install CUPs, see the release notes document that is included in the CUP package.

To deploy a Data Flow Probe CUP on all the connected Data Flow Probes:

In Data Flow Management, go to the Data Flow Probe Setup module.

Click the Deploy Probe Update button.

Select a CUP version to deploy, and click OK.

Linux only:

Extract the upgrade package by running:

/opt/hp/UCMDB/DataFlowProbe/tools/upgrade/extractUpgradePackage.sh
Restart the Data Flow Probe.

Windows Probe only: Verify that the Probes is connected and that the Probe version is updated: Go to Data Flow Management > Data Flow Probe Setup, and select the domain. For details, see <Domain> Details Pane.

Note

During the CUP deployment process, all compatible Data Flow Probes are automatically restarted. If an integration is running on a Data Flow Probe while it is restarting, the integration stops running, and starts over when the Data Flow Probe restarts. If an integration is almost finished running, or a significant part has already run, to avoid starting the integration over, we recommend letting it complete its run, and, thereafter, updating the CUP.
To undeploy a Data Flow Probe CUP for the purpose of aligning the CUP version with the UCMDB Server's CUP version, see How to Align the Data Flow Probe CUP with the UCMDB Server CUP.
