How to Run Maximo Integrity checker 7.5

About this task

Before proceeding further with the Maximo Asset Management 7.5 upgrade process, you need to run the Maximo Asset Management 7.5 Integrity Checker utility to confirm the integrity of the Maximo Asset Management 7.5 database after the upgrade steps have been completed. When run in Report mode, the integrity checker utility checks the current database and reports on common errors. If the Integrity Checker reports an error, you must resolve it by running the Integrity Checker in Repair mode.

Procedure

1. Stop the application server. For example, MXServer.
2. From the administrative workstation of the existing deployment, open a command prompt and change directory to the maximo tools directory. For example, c:\ibm\SMP\maximo\tools\maximo
3. Start the Integrity Checker tool: integrityui.bat
4. Select the Check Integrity tab
5. Run the Integrity Checker in Report mode: a. Ensure that the Repair Mode? check box is cleared, and then click Run Integrity Checker.
   b. When the report dialog box appears, click OK.
   Results are found in the install dir\maximo\tools\maximo\log directory in the file defined in the Log File Name field of the Check Integrity panel.
6. Optional: If any errors are reported, run the Integrity Checker in Repair mode.
   a. Select the Repair Mode? check box, and then click Run Integrity Checker.b. When the report dialog box appears, click OK.
7. Optional: If Integrity Checker was run in Repair mode, check the log file to ensure all reported items have been repaired. If further manual intervention is required, you must resolve the errors and then rerun the Integrity Checker in Report mode. Repeat the process until no more errors are reported.

Results

While the Integrity Checker can repair many issues, you might have to resolve some errors manually by consulting the log files.
