Upload Base Build - 2021.02 and later

Upload Base build

Base builds only need to be uploaded for new Major releases of FEWS or in case changes can not be fixed with a regular patch.jar. The upload base build page allows uploading the base build and shows a list with all uploaded builds. A OC/CM/FSS will always start up with the boot build (installed build at the host) and then will restart with a base build that is compatible with the active patch. It is NOT POSSIBLE to fix issues that occur before the restart of the OC/CM/FSS by uploading a new base build. In this case the base build should be INSTALLED as boot build at the OC/CM/FSS host machine. An OC/CM restarts immediately with the active patch and boot build. A FSS will restart with the active patch and base build when it is woken up. This means that also all the issues while sleeping can not be fixed by uploading a new base build.

Delete Base builds

It is possible to delete a Base Build when it is no longer used by a patch.jar in the Delft-FEWS configuration or by the uploaded config management patch. In the action column it is possible to delete a base build. In the following example the stable 2021.02 (106458) base build is no longer used and can be deleted. Deleting a base build requires AI_ADMIN privileges. If the basebuild is in use, a tooltip is displayed over the cross button that indicates the patch that is compatible with the basebuild. In order to enable removal of a base build via the Admin Interface, first all patches need to be removed from the RootConfigFiles using the Config Manager application.
