How to upgrade the Ipanema Solution from Salsa 7.1 (or higher) to Salsa 8.1 VF4
1. INTRODUCTION
This document details step by step what must be done to upgrade your Ipanema Solution from
a Salsa v7.1 or 8.0GA to the v8.1 version in VF0 (VistaFoundation components update if lower
than 4.3 out of the scope of this document).
The upgrade will generate holes in the reporting, but services activated on the ip|engines
(optimization, acceleration, compression) will remain active.
For a full list of changes and new features, please refer to the Salsa v8.1 release note. The
Ipanema System v8.1 user manual explains how to use the new features.
2. UPGRADE SALSA TO THE 8.1 VERSION
2.1. Prerequisites

We advise you to backup your ip|boss configuration and Infovista databases
before beginning the upgrade:


You will need to prepare the following files to perform the upgrade :
- Extract / Copy the “ipboss v8.1.x windows.zip” file on your ipboss server.
- Extract / Copy the “ipreporter v8.1.x.zip” file on both ipboss and ipreporter servers
(if they are hosted on two distinct servers).
- Extract / Copy the “ipreporter-web v8.1.x.zip” on your VistaPortal server.
- With SALSA 8.1, you need VistaPortalSE v4.4 and last hotfix. Extract / Copy
“VistaPortalSE 4.4 windows” and the last “Hotfix VPSE” on your VistaPortal
server.

3. UPDATING INFOVISTA
3.1. Infovista server upgrade
Warning – If you upgraded an existing Salsa v7.1 or v8.0GA installation and you are
currently running Infovista v4.2, it must be updated to v4.3.
Ask Ipanema support team to provide you a new Infovista License, with the MAC address of
the new Windows 2008 server.
You will then be able to upgrade your Infovista installation to 4.3 or v4.4.
3.2. Infovista libraries upgrade
There are two ways to install the Ipanema VistaViews: automatically, using
ipreporter_setup.exe executable file, or manually, using IVreport (InfoVista rich client).
The manual procedure is only helpful to perform a remote installation. Otherwise, follow the
automatic procedure.
3.2.1. – Automatic installation (using ipreporter_setup)
Launch ipreporter_setup.exe. This setup must be run on both ip|boss and ip|reporter
servers. If these components are hosted on separate servers, the setup must be launched
on both.
www.ipanematech.com
13
How to upgrade the Ipanema Solution from Salsa 7.1 (or higher) to Salsa 8.1 VF4
Click Next. In the next window, accept the terms of the license and click Next:
In the next window, there are two check boxes, one for ip|boss and one for InfoVista:

14
How to upgrade the Ipanema Solution from Salsa 7.1 (or higher) to Salsa 8.1 VF4
As you are on the VistaMart server, only the “InfoVista server” box is checked, by default: leave
it as it is.
The installation then proceeds. Click Next when finished:
A message tells you that the installation tasks were successful; click Next:
Click Done to finish the installation:

How to upgrade the Ipanema Solution from Salsa 7.1 (or higher) to Salsa 8.1 VF4
3.2.1. Automatic installation (using ipreporter_setup) on the ip|boss
server
In order to upgrade the reports description, you must run ipreporter_setup.exe on the ip|boss
server.
Installation remains the same as for the VistaMart, except for step 3, the “ip|boss Server” box
is checked by default.
Verify that the ip|boss installation directory is correct then click “Next”.
The installation proceeds.
3.2.2. – Manual installation (using IVreport)
This procedure should not be required, normally. It is only applicable in VF0 mode.
Start IVreport (InfoVista rich client).
Go to the menu File > Install VistaView.
Select all libraries located in the directory “IVL” (InfoVista Libraries) on ip|reporter DVDROM.
The installer window will list the new libraries to be updated listed in bold as well as the
new version number :

17
How to upgrade the Ipanema Solution from Salsa 7.1 (or higher) to Salsa 8.1 VF4
Once installation completes, the version installed on server will match the version of the
library in the install folder :
Purge the Trash Libraries and close IVreport.
The new versions of VistaViews are NOT automatically updated. To avoid holes in report
graphs at critical times, we recommended you perform the upgrade in off-peak hours.
Copy over the new reports_desc.ipmsys file, located in the “ipboss” folder of the
ip|reporter directory on the DVD, to \Program Files\salsa\ipboss\server\conf\ on the
new server

The following window will appear :

We do not recommend changing default setting. The value of choice will directly depend
on platform design, expected simultaneous users connecting to the reporting portal and
availability of server resources, depending on if it is shared with other components.
On the next window, confirm the VPUSER password.
Installation should proceed. Click done, installation process is complete.
