Database Requirements
The database to be upgraded must be at the stage just before a close of business is set to run.
Ensure all message queues have been cleared and phantoms and services are stopped. The system must be in a fully recoverable state. No one should be signed on except the person upgrading.
Once the upgrade process is finished a complete backup or checkpoint should be taken to ensure
recoverability.

R12 Release Notes- Release R12.00 -Page 7 of 49 - (c) Temenos Systems 2012

Disk Space Requirements


When you upgrade a T24 database, the size of the database will increase, especially if you are
installing new products. Please ensure you have sufficient disk space available.

Data Changes
A few applications may still contain field numbers e.g. USER and others may be stored in
USER.EXTERNAL.FIELD.Please review these applications before beginning the upgrade to
determine if any corrections to field numbers are required.
Do not make changes until the conversions have been run.
It is important that there are no unauthorised STANDARD.SELECTION records before you take
the release and you do not authorise any released STANDARD.SELECTION records before you
run the conversions.

INSTALLATION OF THE SOFTWARE


Instructions on the transfer of the release from distribution medium and the actual upgrade process are included in the T24 Installation User Guide.
Upgrade Summary
Check that the TEMP.RELEASE is pointing to the correct upgrade path. For example;
TEMP.RELEASE
001 D
002 /T24/R12_component/temp.release
l

Run T24.BUILD.LIBRARIES
Logout and login with a new session
l Run T24.PRE.RELEASE
You are now ready to follow any pre-release procedures described below :
l Respond to the Model Bank question appropriately. If your system is a model bank implementation then you should respond Y, otherwise N. If in doubt contact your account manager.
l Provide a USER id as requested.
Once these are complete you are then ready to sign on to T24 to initiate the upgrade service.
l Start the TSA.SERVICE records, TSM & T24.UPGRADE. For multi-company setup the T24.UPGRADE id will be prefixed with a company mnemonic.
l Run the service agents until the upgrade is completed.
l Authorise any CONVERSION.PGMS records.
l Initiate the service RUN.CONVERSION (TSM must also be running still)
l Once completed run any specific conversion services specified in the release notes (later in
this document).
l Recompile any local code (New inserts provided by the release and or TAFC upgrades
require this)
l Repgens
Once this has finished the record review and authorisation process can commence.
l

R12 Release Notes- Release R12.00 -Page 8 of 49 - (c) Temenos Systems 2012

Important
Additional new products
The installation of a new product must not be done at the same time as a system upgrade.
The preferred procedure is to complete the upgrade first and only then change the SPF and COMPANY records to include the new product. A new procedure is to update the BATCH record
BNK/T24.UPGRADE and populate the new products to be installed in the DATA field.
Please reference the T24 Updates User Guide for more details.

Upgrading Browser / ARC-IB


If upgrading from a previous version of T24 Browser or ARC-IB the following steps should
be taken :Before Upgrading
1. Make a back-up of any altered files. For example :l channels.xml
l browserParameters.xml
l custom.js
l Any customised skin
After Upgrading
1.
2.
3.
4.

After the extract of the new WAR file stop the web server.
Re-instate the changes to the backed-up files to the released versions.
Restart the web server.
Clear your browsers cache of any old JavaScript files and images. To do this perform the following :Internet Explorer
Tools>Internet Options>Browsing History>Delete>Temporary Internet
Files>Delete Files
Firefox
Tools>Clear Private Data>Clear Private Data Now

CONVERSION ROUTINES
Overview
This section outlines the conversion and other related routines to be run for this release. Read
through the whole chapter thoroughly before starting the conversion process: you may be required
to get information or data prior to starting the conversions.
Data, except where this document specifically states, must not be input, amended, or authorised
until all the conversion routines have been successfully completed.

R12 Release Notes- Release R12.00 -Page 9 of 49 - (c) Temenos Systems 2012

Conversion Routines
Follow the instructions in the System Administration Guide. All CONVERSION.PGMS records
must be authorised first. The conversion routines should be run using the service RUN.CONVERSION
Do not authorise any STANDARD.SELECTION records before running.

POST CONVERSION ACTIONS


Authorise Standard Selections
Authorise all STANDARD.SELECTION records for the release.

Authorising / Modifying new and changed records


Record Authorisation
If you have fully complied with the actions detailed in the pre-release information and release
notes, you can now authorise all the unauthorised records in all companies. Check the impact of
changes as you authorise each record to prevent any overwriting of local modifications.
Batch Record Authorisation
All BATCH records must be reviewed. You may have local differences from the released records.
Batch records HELD
Some BATCH records may be in HLD status. These records contain information in the data fields
that has been modified. You must review these records to ensure that your local data specifications are not being overwritten.
Batch record LIVE
After initial installation, when running the next COB, the batch record TXN.JOURNAL.SORT must
have the value held in FREQUENCY set to Daily. Subsequent to this the record needs to be
amended to set the FREQUENCY to Ad-hoc to reduce the processing overhead.
Should users wish to continue to utilise the existing TRANS.JOURNAL2 report they may do so by
reinstating the report in the BATCH EB.PRINT, this will, however, have an impact in the performance of COB processing.
Sequence of authorisation
Authorise these records in the following applications first because of later dependencies:
l STANDARD.SELECTION
l ENQUIRY(any % records)
l EB.PRODUCT
l EB.SYSTEM.ID
l SYSTEM.RECORD
l VERSION
l DE.MESSAGE

TOCF(EE) Release Notes


IMPORTANT RELEASE INFORMATION
Release R12
Temenos Open Connectivity Framework - Enterprise Edition (TOCFEE)
Release Notes
Product:TOCF(EE) R12
Version: R12.0.0.1
Type:GA release

This section outlines new features in TOCF Enterprise Edition R12 and contains important information for upgrading clients. If you are upgrading from an earlier release of TOCF(EE), please
read and understand all the release information details for each release before starting the installation.
Prior to R09, T24 used the Temenos Connector Server (TCS) to host the Temenos Open Connectivity Framework (TOCF). This framework includes adapters, listeners, plugins, formatters,
connection pooling, and security. From R09, T24 can now leverage the application server features for connection pooling, security, and deployment of the TOCF listeners, plugins, and
formatters. TOCF(EE) offers many performance, deployment and security advantages over TOCF
(TC Server), but upgrading clients will continue to be supported on the deprecated TOCF (TCS).

Release Highlights
This section provides an overview of new TOCF components and advice regarding any components which have been replaced or deprecated. Please refer to the system requirements section for further details.
Secure document download/upload
This release of TOCF(EE) provides enhance features to
1. JDBC connectivity to download or upload documents to databases
2. Support the enhanced image management module available in T24 Browser.
Without this enhancement users had to implement an inputstream provider class to provide the
mechanism to download files. This release also enables users to create stream providers to
upload files, i.e. write outputstream writer classes.
The TOCF(EE) plugins resource adapter contains the following default data transfer libraries:
l File data transfer Upload/download files to the local or network mounted file system
l JDBC data transfer Upload/download files to a JDBC enabled database

SSL encyrypted JEE inbound connections
This release of TOCF(EE) enables the jBC CALLJEE statement and the T24 resource adapter to
establish SSL encrypted connections. The following environment variables are used on T24
servers to configure JEE connections:
l JEE_SSL_CERTIFICATE
l JEE_SSL_KEY
Please refer to the TOCF(EE) user guide on enabling SSL encrypted inbound connections. The
T24 resource adapter is by default configured to not enable SSL encryption.
Enhanced high availability for JEE inbound connections
The jBC CALLJEE statement enables application developers to send messages to the application server and therefore provide connectivity to other systems. The environment variables
l JREMOTE_INBOUND_HOST=<host>
l JREMOTE_INBOUND_PORT=<port>
Used to connect to the JEE application server are still supported for backwards compatibility. In
order to provide connectivity and failover to secondary servers, application developers were
required to use the JEEOpen/JEEActivate/JEEClose statements, manage connection handles
and optionally provide a retry mechanism for failover.
New environment variables
l JEE_HOSTS=<host1>, <host2>, ...
l JEE_PORTS=<port1>, <port2>, ...
are now available to provide the jBC CALLJEE statement with connectivity to multiple servers.
This mechanism
l Does NOT load balance requests between multiple servers. CALLJEE establishes only one
connection to a single application server.
l CALLJEE always attempts to first establish a connection to host 1 if available, otherwise to
host2, and so on.
l CALLJEE does not fail-over at runtime a JBC application needs to provide the retry mechanism, i.e. re-send the request in case of failure. See CALLJEE error codes for identifying
connection errors.
Enhanced T24 resource adapter inbound listener
The inbound listener now uses the TOCF framework library (tocfframework.jar) which provides an
enhanced event pipeline based on the Netty serialization library.
Note: The Netty library - included in this TOCF(EE) release - must be made available to the application servers system classloader in case the application server does not already ship this
library. This is only required when enabling the inbound listener.

Release Number Standardisation


In the past release numbers for TOCF, jBASE, T24Browser, and T24 all had different formats,
making it harder for the user to insure that compatible components were installed. From R09 all
components for T24 use a standardised component numbering starting with the product version.
From R11, the TOCF(EE) component has been aligned with the other technology products and
introduced 4 digits into the release / version.
Due to this it will be mandatory to install the new R12 versions of each component. Further details
can be seen below.

Component Updates
From R09, a new update process was introduced that gave a client the ability to find and apply
upgrades on a component basis. This means it is now possible for changes to be isolated and
delivered with fewer fixes and for specific components.
The TOCF(EE) component is not available as a T24 Update. Updates are available for the
dependent components within T24. See the section of this document entitled System Component
Requirements.

System Requirements
TAFC jbase_agent
The jbase_agent is the executable process that listens for socket connection from the TAFC RA
and allows a remote client to call T24 subroutines. This is the process you will see running on the
T24 server there will be one listener process plus one process for each connection in the Application Server connection pool.
Minimum TAFC release: R12 GA.
Artifact: $TAFC_HOME/bin/jbase_agent

INSTALLATION OF THE SOFTWARE


Transfer the archives to the target machine.

Upgrading TOCF(EE)
If you have an earlier version of TOCF(EE) installed you should
1. Save any system configuration files before proceeding with the installation of the TOCF(EE)
components.
Pay particular attention to the following:
TOCFplugin-ra.rar tcserver.xml
TOCFListener-ejb.jar ejb-jar.xml
Save any other deployment descriptors or configuration files which might have been modified.
Apply these changes to the deployment descriptors and configuration files which are located
inside the new tocfee.ear archive.
2. Uninstall the existing TOCF(EE) components
l tocfee.ear(TOCF(EE) Enterprise Archive)
l tocfT24ra-ra.rar (T24 Resource Adapter) or jremote-ra.rar in case of TOCF(EE) versions
prior to R10.1.1
l T24Utility.war
On Weblogic, if necessary remove the T24 RA client libraries from the domains shared library
directory:
l <weblogic home>\user_projects\domains\<domain name>\lib\jremote.jar
l <weblogic home>\user_projects\domains\<domain name>\lib\tocfT24ra.jar
Note: To uninstall enterprise components in JBoss you should stop the application server and
remove the artifacts from the deploy directory.
3. Install the new TOCF(EE) components:
l tocfT24ra-ra.rar
l tocfee.ear
l T24Utility.war
l netty.jar (only required when enabling the inbound listener)
4. Restart the application server.

TWS(EE)-Release_Notes
New Features
Component Service:
From R12 onwards TWS EE project can be created for component based service. This can be
specified in the Log on screen itself:

WS-Security (SI-100859)
TWS Java(EE) R12 supports WS-Security.
The WSS-header is used instead of the SOAP Body to pass user credentials from client. TWS
uses WSIT for its security implementation. Web Service Interoperability Technologies (WSIT) is
part of Sun Metro which implements several new web services technologies including WS-Security, WS-Trust, WS-SecureConversation.

R12 Release Notes- Release R12.00 -Page 33 of 49 - (c) Temenos Systems 2012

Strong Data typing (SI-135815)


TWS (EE) R12 supports Strong data typing.
TWS Java EE prior to this build created webservices with WSDL which exposed generic type as
String, for all the member fields in the WSDL, without specific type and data validation.
Strong Data typing allows TWS to use data types based on the T24 types within the Version that
is exposed. This allows the Web Services we publish from T24, the ability to use standard data
type validation.

Support for PW (SI-199927)


OFSFunction class within the web service now supports additional fields for Process Workflow
requirements.

JMSTimeout configuration (Defect 82758):


It is now possible to specify the timeout for JMS, such that the JMS will timeout, if the response is
not received before the timeout period
