If your preforming an upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1 running on Linux, you may run into the below issue.
Problem:
Symantec OpsCenter 7.1.0.0 Installation Program
Welcome to the Symantec OpsCenter installation program.
This installation program will guide you through the steps required to install and configure Symantec OpsCenter.
Press [Enter] to continue:
Initial system check:
Checking OPSCENTERSERVER installation on <System Name> .................................................................................................. 7.0
Symantec OpsCenter will use the existing VRTSatServer 4.3.46.0 installation for user authentication. In case of all other available packages, OpsCenter will
upgrade them if required.
Where should the existing Symantec OpsCenter database and configuration files be backed up? An 'OpsCenterServer_backup' directory will be created within the
directory that you specify to store these files. (/var/symantec/)
Directory "/var/symantec/" does not exist. Do you want to create the directory? [y,n,q] (y)
CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 Invalid mount point /var
installOpsCenterServer log files are saved at /var/VRTS/install/logs/installOpsCenterServer-iKvb6A
Cause:
During the file system verification process the current perl scripts are unable to read the possible 3rd line outputted from the "df -kl /var" command if the "Filesystem" creates a wrap around for the "1K-bloks Userd Available Use% Mounted on". See below df output:
<# df -kl /var
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/osvg-varvol
4062912 244600 3608600 7% /var
Fix:
Either Symantec will update the below recommendation with a patch release or you'll have the edit the file manually.
Update below perl script: (Within the OpsCenter extraction)
1. Edit the below file:
OpsCenter_7.1_X64/LinuxR_x86_64/Server/scripts/CPI/prod/common/Utils.pm
2. Find the below lines: (around lines 278 - 282)
CPI::pl_die ( "Invalid mount point $dir" ) if ( $#dfkLines != 1 );
$dfkLine = $dfkLines[$#dfkLines] || "";
3. Change the above lines to the BOLD lines below:
sub getAvailableSpace
{
my $sys = shift;
my $dir = shift;
my $junk = "";
$dir =~ s/^\///;
($dir, $junk) = split(/\//, $dir);
$dir = CPI::dc_sys ( $sys, "/$dir" ) ? "/$dir" : "/"; # if /$dir not exist then check / for space
my $dfk = CPI::do_sys($sys,"_PLAT_DFK $dir");
CPI::pl_die ( "Invalid mount point $dir" ) if ( "$?" );
my @dfkLines = split /\r?\n/,$dfk;
my $dfkLine = "";
if ( $#dfkLines == 2 ) {
$dfkLine = $dfkLines[1] . " " . $dfkLines[2];
} else {
CPI::pl_die ( "Invalid mount point $dir" ) if ( $#dfkLines != 1 );
$dfkLine = $dfkLines[$#dfkLines] || "";
}
my @spaceValues = split /\s+/, $dfkLine;
my $availSpace = "";
$availSpace = $spaceValues[3];
return $availSpace;
}
4. Save & Exit, re-run installation
