WBEM allows programatical interaction with the Win OS ... it is a way of running WIN commands from somewhere "external" to that server.(i.e adding a windows domain user from another User Management tool). WBEM includes a data model, the Common Information Model (CIM) standard; an encoding specification, and a transport mechanism (CIM operates over HTTP).
The dll's are not required if you are not allowing this interaction. BTW - The most common reason for a CSD update to fail on a windows box is the MQexplorer running (as Peter P says: amq*)since it can run even if Websphere-MQ is shutdown. regards, peter d. -----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Sony Varghese Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 10:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Applying CSD04 for MQ v5.3 Peter, Thanks a lot .. Followed your instructions and voila !! WBEM (windows management service) was using 3 dlls .. dont know for what reason ... stopped it and the installation went through Regards Sony -----Original Message----- From: Potkay, Peter M (PLC, IT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 July 2003 14:15 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Applying CSD04 for MQ v5.3 Make sure you have no runmq* or amq* processes running in Task Manager. Make sure there are no MQ monitoring tools still running, like Tivoli or QPASA. Make sure Norton Antivirus is off. Make sure the MQServices Icon in the taskbar tray in the lower right hand corner is no longer there. Sometimes you have to even roll your mouse over it to make it disappear after you killed the service! Give all this a couple of minutes to give Windows a chance to clean up internally. I have found other products that lock MQ files as well, like performance tools and Compaq Version Control. The easiest way to find out is to download the following: http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/listdlls.shtml Here are the instructions I wrote up for myself on how to use this little gem: 1.Put the listdlls.exe into a folder on the server, like maybe E:\Programs\IBM\MQSeries\MQSupportTools. 2.CD into that directory from the dos prompt. 3.Run the executable, and pipe the output into a text file. Here is a sample of what you would type assuming you placed the executable file as in step 1: E:\Programs\IBM\MQSeries\MQSupportTools\listdlls.exe >DLLOutput.txt 4.Open DLLOutput.txt and do a search on "MQ". Scroll up to see what .exe is using this MQ dll. 5.Stop the application that is using the MQ dll and you should be all set. If you do not recognize what this .exe is, use Process Explorer (procexp.exe). http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml You can find the exe in there, and it will tell you what app it is. And make sure you don't do the following, which I wasted an hour on last night when I did it! Create a folder ../WebSphere MQ/CSD04 Put the CSD04 .exe file in this folder. When it asks you where to extract the install files, you pick the same folder. When it asks you where to install CSD04, you pick the same folder. If you do this, you will get the MQ in use error! Some sort of loop I guess. Download, extract and install into 3 different folders. -----Original Message----- From: Sony Varghese [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 9:00 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Applying CSD04 for MQ v5.3 FW: MQ software evolution - fill in the gaps?Hi, I'm getting a strange error while trying to apply CSD04 for MQ v5.3 on Windows 2k I've stopped all MQSeries services.
