Standalone upgrade (GUI mode)

Note: The installer does not support changing a standalone deployment to a load balancer deployment during an upgrade, or vice versa. To make such a change, you would need to uninstall the server and then reinstall it. See Uninstalling Hybrid Data Pipeline server and Installing the Hybrid Data Pipeline server for details.
After copying the product installation file to a temporary directory, take the following steps to upgrade a standalone deployment with the installer in GUI mode.
1. From a command-line prompt, navigate to the directory where you saved the product upgrade file. Alternatively, place the product upgrade file directory on your path before proceeding to the next step.
The product file has the format PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin, where nn is the version of the product.
2. Make the file an executable using the chmod command. Then, press ENTER. For example:
chmod +x ./PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin
3. Run the executable by entering the product file path and pressing ENTER.
a. Type the file name and path of the product file. For example:
./PROGRESS_DATADIRECT_HDP_SERVER_nn_LINUX_64_INSTALL.bin
b. Press ENTER.
c. The Introduction window appears. Click Next to continue.
Note: If the installer cannot continue with a GUI installation, a message is displayed, and the installation continues in console mode.
4. The License Agreement window appears. Make sure that you read and understand the license agreement. To continue with the installation, select the I accept the terms in the License Agreement option; then, click Next.
Note: You can exit the installation program at any time by clicking Cancel or return to the previous window by clicking Previous.
5. Enter or choose the directory of the installation you want to upgrade; then, click Next. A pop-up dialog appears. Click Upgrade to continue.
6. Choose whether you want to upgrade with an evaluation or licensed version of the product. Licensed installations require a valid License Key.
*Evaluation. Select this option to upgrade with an evaluation version that is fully functional for 30 days. Then, click Next.
*Licensed. Select this option if you purchased a licensed version of the product. Type the license key, including any dashes, and then click Next.
7. Accept or enter the fully qualified hostname for the Hybrid Data Pipeline server. By default, the installer suggests the name of the current machine. Then, click Next.
Note: If the installer is unable to validate the hostname, you are prompted to reenter the hostname or skip validation. Skipping validation is often desired when performing a silent upgrade. See Silent upgrade process for details.
8. Select how you want to continue the upgrade.
*Select Express to persist previously established values. Then, click Next and continue at Step 23.
*Select Modify settings to change values for the following configurations. Then, click Next.
*Change the location of the SSL certificate file
*Change the Java configuration to use an external JRE
*Enable or disable FIPS

*Enable or disable the On-Premises Connector
*Change Server Access Ports
*Change On-Premises Connector Ports
*Change Server Internal Access Ports
Note: The key location where the generated key and internal files are stored cannot be modified when performing an upgrade.
9. Select the desired Java configuration.
Note: Further steps are required to integrate an external JRE. See External JRE support and integration for details.
*Select Use default Java if you will be using the embedded JRE installed with the server.
*Select Java home directory and provide the path to an external JRE if you will be using a JRE not installed with the server.
10. Select whether you want to enable FIPS on the Hybrid Data Pipeline server.
Important: To enable FIPS, your hardware must support secure random, or you must have a secure random daemon installed.
Important: When you enable FIPS during an upgrade, the environment uses the encryption key for the system database that was generated during the original installation of the server. This encryption key, while generated with a FIPS compliant algorithm, was not generated with a FIPS certified implementation of the algorithm.
11. Depending on your environment, provide the appropriate SSL certificate information.
*Select Certificate file to specify a PEM file to be used by the server to establish SSL connections with ODBC and JDBC client applications. Type the full path to the PEM file, or click Choose... to browse to the location of the PEM file. Then, click Next.
Note: The PEM file must consist of a private key, a public key certificate issued by a certificate authority (CA), and additional certificates that make up the trust chain. See The PEM file for more information.
*Select Use existing Certificate to use the SSL certificate specified in the previous installation or the self-signed certificate included with the installation. Then, click Next.
Note: The self-signed certificate may be used in a test environment. However, for production, a PEM file with required information should be specified. See The PEM file for more information.
12. Select whether you want to use MySQL Community Edition as a data source or external database. Hybrid Data Pipeline does not provide a driver for MySQL Community Edition; however, it does support the MySQL Connector/J driver. If you choose Yes, in the Jar Path field, provide the name and location of the driver's jar file. Click Next to continue.
Note: For more information on the MySQL Connector/J driver, refer to the MySQL developer website at https://dev.mysql.com/.
13. Select the type of database you want to use to store system information.
