Check and Install Solutions (ttpmc2204s000)

Use this session to check the selected solution or a range of solutions whether you can install these solutions. If all conditions for all solutions in the selected range and their dependency chains comply, the solutions are installed.

This session performs the combined functionality from the Check Solution/patch to Install (ttpmc2203s000) and Install Solution/Patch (ttpmc2205s000) sessions.

The session works on solutions that are present in the registry of solutions. The check is always carried out on multilevel. All related solutions, which include pre-requisites, co-requisites, and post-requisites, are checked.

If pre-installation instructions are present for one of the solutions to be installed, and the Pre-Installation Instructions Followed Up check box is not selected, none of the solutions will be installed.

On installation all post-installation instructions are printed, along with the instructions for the convert to / create runtime data dictionary if the solutions contain components for which this is required.

This program can only be run as user root or a user defined as a superuser in LN.

Field Information

Update VRC

update VRC

Solution Code

A unique identification of the solution in a base VRC.

Check To Install

Use this option to check the individual solutions or patches in the given range. Only if the solutions are checked and received the status To Install, can you install the solutions.

Retain Status

Use this option if you want to check the solutions, but do not want to change the status of the solutions to To Install. This option is useful if you only want to see the consequences of a particular solution. The Check Solutions report will show the status that the solution would receive. However, if you look in the Process Solutions (ttpmc2101m000) or Process Patches (ttpmc2102m000) session, you will still see the former status. If you select this option, you cannot select the Install option. If you do not select this option, the printing of the Pre-Installation Instructions is mandatory.

Print Pre-Inst. Instr.

Use this option to print the pre-installation instructions in a separate section on the Check Solutions report. This option is mandatory if you did not choose the option Retain Status.

Print Post-Installation Instructions

Use this option to print the post-installation instructions in a separate section on the Check Solutions report. Note that if you choose to install the checked solutions in the same run, for which you can use the Install option, the post-installation instructions are also printed on the Post-installation Actions report.

Detailed Report

Use this option to print a detailed report with all solutions that will be installed. The solution details are printed in a separate section of the Check Solutions report. For each solution, the pre-installation instructions, post-installation instructions, components by solution and dependencies are printed.

This does not depend on the use of the corresponding options:

  • Print Pre-Inst. Instr..
  • Print Post-Installation Instructions.
  • Print Components.
Print Components

Use this option to print the components of all solutions that will be installed in a separate section of the Check Solutions report. To print only customized components, you can use the Check Customizations and Print Cust. Comp. Only options.

Sort Order of Components

In this field, you can specify how the components must be sorted in the solution details section and/or the components section of the Check Solutions report.

Type, Code

The components are sorted by component type and component code.

Code, Type

The components are sorted by component code and component type. Use this choice if you want to see the various components of a session, such as session, form, script/object, and reports, together.

Print Related Solutions

Use this option to print in the components section of the Check Solutions report the solution codes of the solutions, which contain the component.

Check Customizations

Use this option to check all components of the solutions to be installed to see whether or not the components are customized.

This option is applicable if you have chosen the Detailed Report and/or the Print Components option.

The components of a solution will be installed in the update VRC. If the same component also exists in a VRC on top of this update VRC, this component is reported for every package combination that contains the update VRC. Language-dependent components are checked and, if customized, reported for every language you specify in the In Language(s) field. If a component is present in a higher VRC than the update VRC, but a co-requisite solution is present that contains the same component for that higher VRC, the component is not reported.

Note: The presence of customizations will not block the solution for installation.
In Language(s)

In this field, you can specify the languages for which the customizations must be checked. The more languages you specify, the longer the session will run. Infor recommends that you specify only the languages for which customized components always exist.

Print Cust. Comp. Only

Use this option to print the customized components only. This applies to both the solutions details section and the components section of the Check Solutions report.

Automatic Download

If this check box is selected, missing solutions will be downloaded from the FTP server automatically.

Note: The FTP script must be previously generated by the Generate FTP Script (ttpmc2211s000) session.
Download Post Release Dependencies

This check box is selected by default if the Automatic Download check box is selected.

Clear this check box if you do not want to download the PMCDepend<cust> file before running the PMC Dependencies Check (ttpmc2441m000) session.

Note: In a multi-tenant cloud environment, this functionality is not available. Therefore, this field is not visible.

Install

Use this option to install all individual solutions or patches in the given range. These solutions must all have the status To Install. If you carry out the check and install in one run, the installation will not be performed for any solution if errors occurred during the check.

Pre-Installation Instructions Followed Up

Use this option to inform the system that you took action on the pre-installation instructions. If you do not select this option, the solutions will not be installed if any solution has pre-installation instructions attached.

Print Form Changes

If this check box is selected, and the solutions you install contain new forms, the changes between the old forms and the new forms are printed in a report. This can be helpful to detect problems with the authorizations of the forms.

Save Components

Use this option to be able to uninstall the individual solution or patch again. PMC will create an uninstall dump for each solution that is installed.

Device for Error Report

Use this field to specify the device for the error report, which can be created during the creation of the uninstall dumps. This device must be a real printer or a device of type Append to File.

Note: In general, you can ignore this report . This report lists missing components in the current environment, for example, sources or objects that cannot be found. If these sources or objects are not present before the installation of a solution, they do not need to be restored during the uninstallation of a solution.
Output File

In this field, you must specify a file to which the error report must be written if your device is of type Append to File.
