Daniel,

The update worked perfectly - took about 20 minutes, but mostly because I was being hyper-cautious.

I suspected it was an easy upgrade for someone familiar with the product; I got thrown into it in a mad rush, no experience with either product (service manager or tomcat), and told to "get it done yesterday".

Thanks for all your help.  :-)

Paul,
you do not upgrade Tomcat code, you install a second instance of Tomcat or
you delete the existing Tomcat and install the new version.

Service Manager is pretty straight forward to install. Here are the setups:

1) Install Tomcat 7.0.69
2) Configure conf/server.xml (TLS/SSL stuff, Connector, etc)
3) Start Tomcat
4) Drop the war file in webapps
5) Edit webapps/sm/WEB-INF/web.xml to reflect your installation (SM server,
etc) after the war has been installed into its directory

You are done. Check in logs/catalina.out for error messages.

There is variants in the installation. This one seems to me the simplest on
given you are telling us the war file is actually in the webapps folder.

I am a bit surprised you were told to upgrade to Tomcat 7.0.69, which
version of SM are you running on the server? We still have SM running with
Java 6 and Tomcat 6.0.24 in production with SM 9.34. We are upgrading to SM
9.41, Tomcat 8 and Java 8. So far, SM is running smoothly in all our
environments. Usually HP support whatever version of Tomcat you have,
provided it meets the minimum requirements or unless a specific bug exists
in your Tomcat version.
