Descripción

ESRI ® announces the ArcGIS Compress with Concurrent Editors patch. This patch fixes two issues associated with compressing a geodatabase while users are in the process of making versioned edits to data in the geodatabase. The specific issues addressed in this patch are listed in the next section. ESRI recommends you apply this patch if you compress your geodatabase while any users are concurrently performing edits.

Please see technical articles 36194 and 35287 for more detailed information.

Issues Fixed with this Patch

NIM041843 - Compressing a geodatabase while users are connected and editing can encounter the error "Target state not found in the STATES table (-172)". (Please see technical article 35287 for more details.)
NIM042238 - Executing a compress operation while sessions are connected and editing can result in data inconsistencies if the compress operation attempts to delete a state of the database with descendant states. (Please see technical article 36194 for more details.)
NIM042827 - ArcSDE for Oracle: Optimize delete statements used by trim and deleting states when removing rows from a versioned table's deletes table.
NIM043097 - Compressing a geodatabase can lead to blocking conditions in ArcGIS which impact editor user response time. Please see technical article 36371 for more details.)
NIM043540 - ArcSDE for Oracle: Optimize the delete statement against a versioned table's d<#> table when deleting a state of the geodatabase.

Installing the Patch

At a minimum, you must install ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 before installing this patch. If you have already installed the ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 Memory Allocation Patch, you can install the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch on top of that. However, it is not required to install the Memory Allocation Patch because the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch includes those fixes as well. It is strongly recommended that you back up your database including all previous ArcSDE system tables and user layer data before upgrading your ArcSDE installation. Install this Patch using an administrator account.

REQUIRED INSTALLATION STEP: If you connect to ArcSDE 9.2 via an Application Server and Direct Connect connections using ArcGIS 9.2, ArcIMS 9.2, or 9.2 Workstation make sure you also see ESRI products connecting to ArcSDE (application server and direct connections).

Server installation for UNIX

During installation, you can either save the original 9.2 files or overwrite them. If you choose to save them, make sure you have enough disk space. The disk space requirements, for each platform, are displayed during the installation process.

UNIX/Linux Installation Notes:

At a minimum, you must install ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 before installing this patch. If you have already installed the ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 Memory Allocation Patch, you can install the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch on top of that. However, it is not required to install the Memory Allocation Patch because the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch includes those fixes as well.

Stop your current ArcSDE service if one is running.
% sdemon -o shutdown

NOTE (AIX only): You must remove any inactive libraries that are loaded into memory before proceeding to the next step. Not doing so will result in an installation error. To remove them, as ROOT user, type:

# /usr/sbin/slibclean

(Optional) To list the libraries loaded into memory, as ROOT user, type:

# /usr/sbin/genkld

For further information on the slibclean and genkld commands please refer to your AIX system administrator documentation.
Extract the specified tar file by typing:
% tar -xvf sde92sp6-compresspatch-<Database>-<Platform>.tar
Start the installation by typing:
% ./applypatch

This will start the dialog for the menu-driven installation procedure. Default selections are noted in parentheses ( ). To quit the installation procedure, type 'q' at any time.
(This step is for Oracle only, all other DBMS skip to the next step)
Before running "sdesetup -o upgrade", you must grant the following additional permissions to the SDE user in Oracle:
- ALTER ANY INDEX
  ALTER ANY TABLE
  ANALYZE ANY
  CREATE ANY INDEX
  CREATE ANY PROCEDURE
  CREATE ANY SEQUENCE
  CREATE ANY TRIGGER
  CREATE ANY VIEW
  CREATE INDEXTYPE
  CREATE LIBRARY
  CREATE OPERATOR
  CREATE PROCEDURE
  CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM
  CREATE SESSION
  CREATE SEQUENCE
  CREATE TABLE
  CREATE TRIGGER
  CREATE TYPE
  DROP ANY INDEX
  DROP ANY PROCEDURE
  DROP ANY SEQUENCE
  DROP ANY TABLE
  DROP ANY VIEW
  DROP PUBLIC SYNONYM
  EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
  SELECT ANY SEQUENCE
  SELECT ANY TABLE
  UNLIMITED TABLESPACE
To upgrade, run sdesetup. Failure to do so may cause problems in starting the service or with connecting to the geodatabase. Please go to the admin command guide under the %SDEHOME%\documentation folder for more information on using this command:
%sdesetup -o upgrade -d <ORACLE9I|ORACLE10G|SQLSERVER|DB2|INFORMIX> –u <DB_Admin_User> –p <DB_Admin_password>
(This step is for Oracle only, all other DBMS skip to the next step)
After the upgrade completes, you may revoke the following permissions from the SDE user account:
- ANALYZE ANY
  ALTER ANY INDEX
  ALTER ANY TABLE
  CREATE ANY INDEX
  CREATE ANY TRIGGER
  CREATE ANY VIEW
  DROP ANY INDEX
  DROP ANY TABLE
  DROP ANY VIEW
  DROP ANY PROCEDURE
  DROP ANY SEQUENCE
  EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
  SELECT ANY SEQUENCE
  CREATE INDEXTYPE
  CREATE LIBRARY
  CREATE OPERATOR
  CREATE TYPE
Restart your service.
% sdemon -o start
(This step is for Oracle users who have Oracle and ArcSDE installed on separate machines only, all other DBMS skip to the next step)

If you have the ArcSDE component and Oracle installed on separate servers, there are three shared libraries used by EXTPROC that must be copied to the Oracle server. Check the list of files altered by this patch. If any of the following files are on this list, new versions of the file must be copied to the Oracle server. Be sure the files copied to the Oracle server are designed to run on the operating system of the Oracle server. See the ArcSDE for Oracle installation guide for instructions.

If the file is not in the list, new versions of it do not need to be copied to the Oracle server.

Library Name	OS-dependent file names
st_shapelib	st_shapelib.dll (Windows), libst_shapelib.so (Solaris and Linux), libst_shapelib.sl (HP-UX PA-RISC), libst_shapelib_64.so (IBM)
Projection Engine	pe.dll (Windows), libpe.so (Solaris and Linux), libpe.sl (HP-UX PA-RISC), libpe_64.so (IBM)
Geometry	sg.dll (Windows), libsg.so (Solaris and Linux), libsg.sl (HP-UX PA-RISC), libsg_64.so (IBM)

If you have ArcSDE installed on more than one server, perform steps 1 through 8 for each one.
Note:If you have multiple geodatabases on the same server, you only have to install the patch once on the server, but you must perform steps 5 through 8 to upgrade each of the geodatabases and restart their corresponding services if services exist.

Server installation for Windows

Windows Installation Notes:

At a minimum, you must install ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 before installing this patch. If you have already installed the ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 6 Memory Allocation Patch, you can install the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch on top of that. However, it is not required to install the Memory Allocation Patch because the ArcSDE 9.2 Compress with Concurrent Editors patch includes those fixes as well.

How to identify which Patch is installed

UNIX
- To find out what ArcGIS products are currently installed on your machine, copy the PatchFinder.tar utility to your machine and run it from your local machine. This utility provides a report detailing which ArcGIS products and which service packs have been installed. The PatchFinder utility searches for the following ArcGIS products.
  - ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for C++
    ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for the Java Platform
    ArcGIS Engine Runtime
    ArcGIS Server for the Java Platform
    ArcIMS
    ArcIMS Web ADF for the Java Platform
    ArcInfo Workstation
    ArcReader
    ArcSDE
  Extract the tar file by typing:
  
  % tar xvf PatchFinder.tar
  
  Run the utility by typing:
  
  % ./PatchFinder
Windows
- To check for the presence of a Patch, for each file examine the File version information (right click, properties, version tab). With only a few exceptions, all files modified as part of a Patch distribution can be uniquely identified in this manner. The File version for this Patch should read:
  - 9.2.6.1289
Service Pack and Patch Updates
Check Online Support Center periodically for the availability of additional Service Packs and Patches. New information about this Patch will be posted here.
May 5, 2009: Oracle 10g on IBM64 and Solaris64 are now available for download.
August 3, 2009: Changed instructions on how to identify patched files for Windows.
