During this process, just before the upgrade, a cloning is done to a staging environment, to keep the source untouched.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As part of this cloning, an update of the target_server value of the dm_job objects is done to use the new host, obviously. Therefore, once the cloning is done, I&#8217;m sure that all the jobs, without exception, were using the correct target_server, according to our best practices. This means most of the jobs targeting ANY running server and then distributed jobs with some specific configurations. As you probably already understood via the title of this blog, one of the issue I faced in every single upgrade from 7.x to 16.x is that the Documentum upgrade installer is changing the target_server of some jobs and for one of them, it is actually causing an issue.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Checking the target_server after the upgrade showed that this parameter has been updated for several jobs, which therefore lost our best practices. However, the real problem was for the dm_DataDictionaryPublisher job:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: true; first-line: 1; highlight: [19]\">[dmadmin@stg_cs ~]$ repo=\"REPO1\"\n[dmadmin@stg_cs ~]$ iapi ${repo} -Udmadmin -Pxxx &lt;&lt; EOC\n?,c,SELECT r_object_id, object_name, r_creation_date, r_modify_date, target_server FROM dm_job WHERE object_name='dm_DataDictionaryPublisher';\nexit\nEOC\n\n        OpenText Documentum iapi - Interactive API interface\n        Copyright (c) 2018.

For a Primary CS, it is therefore usually something like &#8220;<em>REPO1.REPO1<\/em>&#8220;. I assume that what is happening is that somewhere in the code, instead of using &#8220;<em>REPO1<\/em>&#8221; as repository name and appending &#8220;<em>.REPO1<\/em>&#8221; to it so that the job run on the Primary CS, they actually used a repository name which is already the Primary CS target and therefore you end-up with &#8220;<em>REPO1.REPO1.REPO1@&#8230;<\/em>&#8221; in the target_server, which is wrong.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>During the upgrade process, there are many things happening, as you can expect&#8230; One of these is the execution of the toolset.ebs script. This script is configuring the target_server on several OOTB Documentum jobs.

As you know, that&#8217;s definitively not a correct value for a target_server but this is expected in this case, most probably to prevent it from running (we deactivate all the jobs before migration anyway)&#8230; Later, as part of the step (from the logs) &#8220;<em>[main] com.documentum.install.server.installanywhere.actions.cfs.DiWAServerProcessingScripts2 &#8211; Executing the Java Method Server Configuration Setup script<\/em>&#8220;, the script named &#8220;<em>dm_defaultevent_set.ebs<\/em>&#8221; is executed and create the log file &#8220;<em>$DOCUMENTUM\/dba\/config\/REPO1\/dm_defaultevent_set.out<\/em>&#8220;.

Looking at the other log files created by the upgrade shows that there are apparently some discrepancies. The following log files seems to be OK: dm_crypto_upgrade_52.out, headstart.out, replicate_bootstrap.out, sysadmin.trc, aso&#8230; While these ones apparently might not (would needs some debugging to validate): dm_gwm_install.out?, dm_java_methods.out?, dm_defaultevent_set.out, aso&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I guess I will open a Service Reqest with the OpenText Support to get this looked at. It might not be a big issue if it&#8217;s just about the target_server of the dm_DataDictionaryPublisher job but I&#8217;m afraid there would be something else hidden in another script or object that I haven&#8217;t seen yet&#8230; The previous blog I wrote about duplicate JMS\/ACS object (link at the top of this blog) might also be a consequence?
