Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 5 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012
Please refer to previous release notes and PCNs for information about updates introduced in earlier releases.
Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 6 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 Security Issues and Mitigation In order to address a number of security issues in Presence Services 6.1 System Platform Templates, a script will run during the installation of Service Pack 2 to remove/upgrade a number of RPM’s which are installed on the system. This script will operate on both System Platform template-based and Software-only (standalone) installations.
Service Pack 2 installations executed on software-only systems will only upgrade the installed version of Postgres and exit. Installations executed on System Platform Template-based deployments will run a sanity check on the template to ensure the environment has not been modified. If any modifications have been made to the template the Service Pack 2 installer will exit. This means no Service Pack 2 updates will be performed and no RPM removals/upgrades will occur.
It the installer exits during the sanity check it is recommended to review the log file in /tmp/UpdateTemplateRpms.log and reverting the operating system to the original state by manually removing/upgrading/downgrading the RPMs as detailed in the log file.
If the sanity check passes, the RPMs listed in the section RPMs Removed in this Service Pack will be removed. The RPMs bundled in the UpdateTemplateWrapper.zip will be upgraded along with the installed versions of Postgres, JDK and the kernel. On successful completion, a system reboot will be performed. Presence Services has to be restarted manually after the reboot.
The script to remove/update the RPMs will be executed by the SP2 installer automatically.
The RPM updater script will alter the operating system; removing, updating and adding RPMs. The changes are detailed in the appendices as follows:
• RPMs which will be removed are listed in the section RPMs Removed in this Service Pack
• RPMs which are updated are listed in the section RPMs Updated in this Service Pack
• RPMs which have been added, due to new dependencies are listed in the section RPMs Added in this Service Pack
The script will complete by executing a system reboot, assuming it has successfully performed the RPM updates. If a silent installation is performed, verify successful execution by checking the log.
Note: By updating the Red Hat template, it shall be no longer possible to install/rollback previous, current or subsequent service packs or patches using the graphical installer. All subsequent installs must be performed using the silent install method.
Software-only deployments:
Software-only customers for Presence Services are required to manually upgrade their operating system to use Red Hat kernel release 2.6.18-274.7.1 (RHEL 5.7). Packages are also
Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 7 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 required to be upgraded to the releases as defined in the section RPMs Updated in this Service Pack.

Known Issues and Workarounds The following issues were known at the time of this Service Pack release:
Tracking # Issue n/a During PS install, if one does not enter required SAL details, the install hangs with error replace caf.zip. Workaround: Please make sure to enter SAL details at the time of PS installation. wi00966611 Incorrect cursor behavior during an install or uninstall on PS (If installing using putty from windows) Workaround: After initiating the silent install via putty press any numerical or alpha char and press “enter” this brings up the install GUI or continue silent install. Alternatively install from the console. wi00902967 DNS value not updated in /etc/resolv.conf file during Network Parameter changes on System Platform PS template (should only be 2 records in file – Search & Nameserver) Workaround: Have a single entry for “search” and “nameserver” when changing network parameters via the System Platform Presence Services UI. wi00963051 monit summary not updated with new PS hostname after presence hostname change Workaround: Use following commands: monit stop monit start wi00966609 installing 06.01.02.00.0702 displays izpack errors in PS-install.log (Install is successful but errors in log) Note: No known negative impact to SP2 functionality wi00939709 System Platform indicates PS 6.1 SP2 template installation was completed successfully even though the opposite is true. Note: In this case consult the installation logs for further information and cause of install failure. wi00978547 Location of changePSFQDN.sh has changed Note: Location has changed from /opt/Avaya/Presence/presence/bin to /opt/Avaya/Presence/install/scripts/ wi00944411 Presence Services doesn't show up under Managed Elements SMGR 6.2.10.0 Workaround: 1) Go to SMGR admin interface. 2) Click "Inventory" -> "Manage Elements" 3) Click "New" button 4) Select "Presence Services" as type 5) Set "Name" as a short host name (or other name which makes sense) 6) Set "Node" as FQDN of PS server 7) Click "Commit" n/a Secondary DNS parameter change: The current implementation only supports a change of the Primary DNS network parameter via System Platform User interface. Furthermore, the /etc/resolv.conf system file must contain only two line entries for search domain nameserver n/a System Platform Backup/Restore Process: The following instructions must be adhered to when performing a backup and restore in conjunction with network parameter changes via System Platform. Note: Backup(s) taken before IP and hostname change cannot be used for restore after IP and hostname change. Backup Login to Presence services server using ssh.
Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 9 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 Change user to root Stop Presence by running, /opt/Avaya/Presence/presence/bin/stop.sh Start postgres service by running, service postgresql start Run Backup from System platform webconsole, Server Management -> Backup/Restore page Start Presence by running start.sh located under /opt/Avaya/Presence/presence/bin/start.sh Restore Login to Presence services server using ssh.

User Impact: If customer executes a roll-back of PS r6.1 SP2 on system platform template and subsequently attempts to re-install this software release, the installation will fail sanity check for OS and RPMs and will block install (re-install of PS Service Pack software changes in this case) i.e. creates an issue for a customer seeking to re-install SP2 on system platform template as subsequent installation will fail because RHEL OS is no longer as expected (5.3) having been upgraded during initial install to (5.7)
Note: For documented workaround instructions, refer to the Installation section in this document.

Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 26 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 Modifying Network Parameters via System Platform Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 Service Pack 1 introduced support enabling the ability to change network parameters: Presence Services hostname, IP address, netmask, gateway, domain search list and DNS on System Platform Presence Services templates. Since Service Pack 2 is cumulative, it also permits this functionality.
Note that when changing the Presence Services hostname, the user must run a script on the Presence Services template domain after changing the Presence hostname on System Platform.
After changing any of the supported network parameters, the /opt/Avaya/Presence-VA/psva/ps- sp-utils/SPchangeParam.log file can be used to check the progress of the change.
1. Change Primary DNS DNS can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: Primary DNS (Under General Network settings)
After it is changed and setting updated successfully on this page, SSH to the Presence Services template domain and verify this configuration file has a new DNS value: /etc/resolv.conf
2. Change Gateway Gateway can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: Default Gateway (Under General Network settings)
After it is changed and setting updated successfully on this page, SSH to the Presence Services template domain and verify this configuration file has a new Gateway value: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
3. Change Domain Search list Domain search list can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: Domain Search List (Under General Network settings)
After it is changed and setting updated successfully on this page, SSH to the Presence Services template domain and verify this configuration file has a new domain search list value: /etc/resolv.conf
4. Change Default Netmask Default netmask can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: Netmask (Under Domain network Interface- > Domain 0 ->
Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 27 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 avpublic)
After it is changed and setting updated successfully on this page, SSH to the Presence Services template domain and verify this configuration file has a new netmask value: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
5. Change Presence IP Address Access the System Manager via and change the new Presence IP for the Presence entry. For example: In the /etc/hosts file of SMGR change presence IP address to new IP address.
The Presence VM IP address can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: IP address of the presence_va
After it is changed and the setting updated successfully on this page, try to access Presence VM with its new IP.
If Presence is accessible with new IP address then try to do some basic testing to see after IP changes things are working fine. a. Go to Presence XCP controller UI and see all the component are up and running. b. On Presence box, go to $SPIRIT_HOME/scripts/utils/ and run this script ./generateTestAlarm.sh and verify on the SMGR GUI under Events->Alarming section if the test alarms are coming. c. Go to the SMGR GUI, under Replication and check if Presence replica is still in Synchronized state.
After changing the Presence Services IP, all clients using the Presence IP has to be restarted with new the Presence IP.
6. Change Presence Hostname Pre-PS Hostname change Steps: a. Go to SMGR GUI under replication section and remove the replica for PS with old hostname. b. Make sure the new PS hostname is resolvable from the SMGR, for example adding new hostname entry in the SMGR /etc/hosts file or add in the DNS.
Changing PS Hostname: Presence Hostname can be changed from System platform web console screen Server Management Network Configuration The field name is: presence_va hostname
To change the Presence Services hostname in the Presence domain, manually run the script /opt/Avaya/Presence/install/scripts/changePSFQDN.sh. In parallel you can
Avaya Aura® Presence Services 6.1 SP 2 Release Notes Page 28 of 31 Issue 1.1, May 2012 see the status in the log file /opt/Avaya/Presence-VA/psva/ps-sp- utils/SPchangeParam.log
Once the log file indicates the hostname has changed, perform the following basic test to verify the hostname change succeeded and basic services such as replication, alarming, and all PS components are still up and running:
a. Go to Presence XCP controller UI and see all the component are up and running. b. On Presence box, go to $SPIRIT_HOME/scripts/utils/ and run this script ./generateTestAlarm.sh and verify on the SMGR GUI under Events->Alarming section if the test alarms are coming. c. Go to the SMGR GUI, under Replication and check if Presence replica is still in Synchronized state.
Post-PS Hostname change Steps:
1. Re-Configure the LPS client a. Take a backup of LPS client file generic.keystore.jks. b. Replace the LPS client generic.keystore.jks file with the PS generic.keystore.jks located under $PRES_HOME/jabber/xcp/certs/ c. Update the hostname name entry in the LPS .properties file with the new hostname value. 2. Re-Configure the SIP Tester client a. Take a backup of generic.keystore.jks file under the SIP tester client. b. Replace the SIP tester generic.keystore.jks file with the PS generic.keystore.jks located under $PRES_HOME/jabber/xcp/certs/ 3. Re-Configure the OCS a.
