Execute the updatesystemdb command

When you update the ARIS server using the update setup, the default tenant's system database is updated automatically. For all additional tenants you must update the system databases with the provided database manually. If you do not update system databases, all updates, for example, ARIS method extensions, concerning scripts, filters and templates will not be available.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Click Start > Programs > ARIS > Administration > ARIS Server Administrator 10.0 if you accepted the program group suggested by the installation program. Under a Linux operating system, execute the arisadm.sh shell script instead. To do so, enter: su -c arisadm.sh aris10. The command prompt opens and ARIS Server Administrator is launched in interactive mode.

  2. Establish a connection to the ARIS server and tenant:

    Syntax: server <ARIS server name>:<port number> <tenant> <user name> <password>

    Example: server arissrv:1080 default system manager or server arissrv:443 default system manager -ssl

  3. Enter updatesystemdb <name of ADB file>.

The system configuration of this tenant, managing, for example, ARIS method extensions, report scripts, scheduled reports, macros, filters, and templates, will be updated. Default semantic checks will no longer be updated except of the following: Allocation rules, Model attribute rules, Object attribute rules, Relationship attribute rules, Existence rules, and Rules for a BPMN diagram (BPMN 2.0). For these six rule types, the code is updated. The configuration of the rules stays untouched. User-defined modifications made in the configuration will not be overwritten. You can import the latest semantic checks from the ARIS installation package (<ARIS installation package>/ARIS_Installation_and_Documentation-<patch>\Content\Reports\Common_files and../Semantic Checks).
