9 CHAPTER 1: Appliance Software Configuration After you install the new LogLogic Appliance in its rack and it has power, set it up as described in this chapter. You can set up the Appliance either using the user interface via a web browser, or using the command line interface via a console connection. Contents Setting Up the Appliance with a Browser Setting Up the Appliance using the Console Once the Appliance is running, you want to configure it for your specific needs. For more information, see the LogLogic User Guide or LogLogic Administration Guide. To upgrade an existing Appliance, see Appliance Software Upgrade on page 15. TIBCO LogLogic new (H4) Appliances come with an embedded SD card that contains an image of the Appliance software. This new feature facilitates reimaging the Appliance in case of critical hardware or software failure. For instructions on how to use the backup image for recovery, please contact TIBCO LogLogic support through the online support portal at: or through ll-support@tibco.com Note: By default on H4 LogLogic appliances, the labeled idrac network interface will have an assigned static IPv4 address of /24. By connecting the idrac network interface to a network infrastructure, the idrac web interface will become available via HTTPS, at as well as telnet and SSH to the same default IP. To change the network connectivity from the local console see, LogLogic idrac Configuration on page 25. Setting Up the Appliance with a Browser To set up a LogLogic Appliance using the browser: Step 1: Connecting the Appliance to a Network on page 10 Step 2: Logging in to the Appliance on page 10 Step 3: Configuring Log Source Auto-Identification on page 10 Step 4: Configuring Network Settings on page 10 Step 5: Setting the Time Zone and Time on page 11 Configuration and Upgrade Guide 9

10 Setting Up the Appliance with a Browser Step 1: Connecting the Appliance to a Network Connect the Appliance to a network where you can access a x network address using a class C subnet mask ( ). Note: The Appliance s Default IP Address is x, which is assigned to the Eth0 port. Step 2: Logging in to the Appliance To log in to the Appliance 1. Open Internet browser on your workstation and connect to the Appliance by entering in the browser address line. 2. Accept the certificate. A login screen appears. 3. Enter the default user name (admin) and password (admin). The Appliance displays the End User License Agreement (EULA). 4. Accept the EULA. The Appliance asks you to enter a new password, which must be at least six characters long and contain at least one number. 5. Enter a new password. Note: A warning message may be displayed indicating the time on the appliance is not set or synchronized. You can ignore this warning. For more information, see Step 5: Setting the Time Zone and Time on page 11. LogLogic recommends that you also create a secondary administrative account. You can do this now or later.

15 CHAPTER 2: Appliance Software Upgrade You can upgrade from Release 5.3, 5.3.1, 5.4, or to Release on the ST, LX, and MX Appliances. If you are running a release prior to 5.3, you must first upgrade to Release 5.3, 5.3.1, 5.4, or 5.4.1, run the Post Upgrade Script, and then upgrade to Release If you do not run the Post Upgrade Script, you will lose some of the reports data. After upgrading from 5.3, , or 5.4.2, you must run the Post Upgrade Script rundbm which is under /loglogic/bin/. directory. For information about a specific release, see the LogLogic Release Notes for that release. Contents IMPORTANT: Upgrade Warnings Updating the Appliance Upgrading in a High Availability Environment Running the Post Upgrade Script IMPORTANT: Upgrade Warnings IMPORTANT! Please read all these warnings before upgrading to Release IMPORTANT! The user must wait at least 1 day after a software upgrade before doing a backup, otherwise the backed up log data will be inconsistent with the platform software. LogLogic strongly recommends that you back up your data prior to performing an upgrade. To properly forward Check Point data, you must update both your inbound and outbound devices to the same release. If the source install is using an earlier version of LSP, it is required to upgrade first to LSP 27. The Post Upgrade Script MUST be run on LX, MX, and ST Appliances after upgrading. Configuration and Upgrade Guide 15

16 Appliance Software Upgrade : Updating the Appliance If upgrading from version 5.3, the message routing rules will have the following changes: Authentication and Encryption cannot be selected separately starting from version If either Authentication or Encryption was set, the Enable Authentication and Encryption setting will be set after upgrade. The Authentication and Encryption option is not available when forwarding messages with the UDP protocol starting from version For details, refer to the Chapter 12 - Forwarding Logs to Other Appliances (Routing) in the LogLogic Administration Guide. For encrypted forwarding to be possible, the authentication is now performed using the SSH protocol. The toor user of the upstream appliance must be authorized to login via SSH to the downstream appliance without entering a password. For details, refer to the Chapter 12 - Forwarding Logs to Other Appliances (Routing) in the LogLogic Administration Guide. Starting from version 5.3.1, when scheduling a replay, if you select Authentication and Encryption options, type the CLI command system keycopy on the ST Appliance and follow the instructions displayed on the screen to add the public key to the LX Appliance. Starting from version 5.4, the Show Triggered Alerts page may not display the original alert message even after you disable the Data Privacy mode using the lock icon for the current user session. However, if you turn off the Data Privacy option using the Administration > System Settings > General tab, the original alert message will be displayed in the Show Triggered Alerts page. Log Source Package (LSP) Support Table 1 indicates which LSPs are compatible with the LogLogic Appliance software releases that are supported as of the shipment date of Release Table 1 LSP Compatibility with Supported Appliance Releases Release LSP 23 LSP 24 LSP 25 LSP 26 LSP Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes Yes No No No Yes Yes No No No No Yes * In order to upgrade to Release 5.4.2, you must upgrade to LSP 27 if you are running a previous LSP. Updating the Appliance LogLogic provides Appliance software upgrades through the Appliance user interface: File Update Download the update package (in.tar format) from the TIBCO Software Product Download Site or LogLogic Support website and use the following command to extract all files into the destination directory /loglogic/update on the Appliance: 16 Configuration and Upgrade Guide

17 Appliance Software Upgrade : Updating the Appliance > tar xf <filepath_update_package> -C /loglogic/update The extracted files are described below: Table 2 Update Package Details Files bz2 bz2.sig healthcheck.tar.gz mc-metadata Description The update file. The signature file for the upgrade file. The healthcheck utility tool. Files related to the TIBCO LogLogic Management Center (MC) software (required for upgrading LMI versions using the MC software). Healthcheck Ensure that the Appliance is ready for upgrade by running the Healthcheck package before the upgrade. Use the following command to uncompress the package: > tar zxf <filepath_healthcheck_package> -C /loglogic/update where, <filepath_healthcheck_package> is the correct file path. See Step 5 on page 18. IMPORTANT! Do not install the Healthcheck package under /loglogic/tmp folder. Use the web browser progress bar to monitor the update process. A message displayed on the dashboard informs you to wait. When the process completes, you are redirected to the Login page. The new software release number will be displayed on the top right corner of the System Status page. Depending on the nature of the update, the Appliance might automatically reboot. Using File Update The bz2 and bz2.sig files are required to perform file update process. To extract these files, follow the process explained in the File Update section above. To complete the upgrade process using File Update, you must have: Software download access to the TIBCO Software Product Download Site or support.tibco.com/esupport/loglogic.htm (if you do not have access, register at or contact Technical Support by or phone) For the following partitions, the available disk space must be: / partition 300MB /loglogic partition 5GB Null modem cable (if connecting to the Appliance using a console) To Update the LogLogic Appliance Using File Update: 1. Back up the data on the LogLogic Appliance. For more information on backing up your data, see the LogLogic Administration Guide. Configuration and Upgrade Guide 17

18 Appliance Software Upgrade : Updating the Appliance 2. Log in to the TIBCO LogLogic support website and then download the latest software update that you want to apply to the Appliance. 3. Ensure the Appliance has sufficient available disk space to perform the upgrade (see the disk space requirement for partitions above). To verify the available disk space: a. Log in to the Appliance using SSH and type the command: df -h. b. Look at the available space under the Available column. 4. Connect to the LogLogic Appliance from the CLI or shell login. Use the command line through the serial port with a null modem cable or using SSH. LogLogic recommends using the serial port; using SSH, the connection is lost after the final reboot. The default user is toor, login using the toor password which was created during Using the Console to Set Up the Appliance on page Make sure that the system is ready for upgrade by running the healthcheck command healthcheck.sh with the correct path. For example:./healthcheck/healthcheck.sh or, /loglogic/update/healthcheck/healthcheck.sh Notes: 1. During this process, if system finds any inconsistencies, the console displays the message: Ignore the inconsistency?[yes/no]: Type no to stop the process and go back and fix the issue before you proceed. You can run the healthcheck command multiple times until you fix all inconsistencies. If you type yes, all inconsistencies will be ignored and you can proceed. 2. During this process, the console may prompt the following message to warn you about unconverted report data from previous upgrade process: There is report data on the system that was not converted after the last upgrade. Do you want to convert this data now? [yes/no]: Type yes to exit the healthcheck command at this point and run the rundbm command to complete the post-upgrade process from the previous upgrade. Otherwise, type no to ignore this warning and proceed. During the upgrade process, prior to 5.1, some unused files are left that misleads the healthcheck command to show this prompt. If the post-upgrade process has been run through and this prompt still shows, you should type no to ignore the warning and proceed. 6. Make sure that the update files (bz2 and bz2.sig) are in the /tmp/update directory on the Appliance. If the directory does not already exist, you need to create a soft link /tmp/update to the /loglogic/update directory. To create a soft link, the command is: ln -s /loglogic/update /tmp/update The update files must be copied to the /tmp/update directory to be available for selection in the File Update drop-down menu. 7. Log in to the LogLogic Appliance you want to upgrade. You must log in as a user with Administrator privileges. 8. In the navigation menu, click Administration > File Update. The File Update tab displays. 18 Configuration and Upgrade Guide

19 Appliance Software Upgrade : Upgrading in a High Availability Environment 9. From the Select File drop-down menu, select the appropriate software update. If you do not see any files in the list, verify that the update files are added to the /tmp/ update directory. 10. Click Update. A status message appears at the top of the File Update tab after the update is complete. You might need to reboot the Appliance. 11. After the Appliance reboots, run the Post Upgrade script. See Running the Post Upgrade Script on page 23. Upgrading in a High Availability Environment If you have a High Availability (HA) Appliance environment, either an LX-to-LX or ST-to- ST configuration, you must use the following procedure to upgrade the Appliances. HA is supported on MX3020, MX4020, and MXVirtual (when HA is enabled by default). Prerequisites The following prerequisites must be met prior to starting the Upgrade Process on your HA Appliances. Both HA appliances must have the same hardware model and software version for them to function correctly. The Active and Standby Appliances must be in sync. Ensure that there are no warning messages that appear on the Dashboards > System Status page. Note: The terms Active and Standby might suggest that these Appliances are not equivalent in every respect. In fact they must have identical capabilities in order for High Availability pairing to work. Therefore, for clarity during the of the upgrade process below, the original active Appliance will always be referred to as Appliance A and the original standby Appliance will always be referred to as Appliance B (even though their roles will reverse and then revert back). At Step 6 in the upgrade process, Appliance B will become the active Appliance temporarily, and Appliance A will become the standby Appliance temporarily. At the conclusion of the upgrade process, the roles of the two Appliances will revert back to their original assignments, although that is not necessary for successful HA operation. Starting the Upgrade Process This HA upgrade procedure uses the following example Appliance information: Appliance A: HA Active, IP address Appliance B: HA Standby, IP address Public: HA Public, IP address Network Mask, IP address Network Broadcast, IP address File update server, IP address Configuration and Upgrade Guide 19
