[AWIPS #TNB-176191]: EDEX was broke by a yum update

> Dear Shay and Tiffany,

> During our monthly patch cycle yum somehow updated the awips rpms of our

> 
> As you know we have a running 10 days archive of data.
> While I could just re-install using the new install script I know the first
> step is to delete /hdf5 that has the 10 days archive.

> I wonder if there is a way to save the archive and still fix the EDEX.

> Thank you for your help,

Hello,

Sorry your yum updated AWIPS, we should disable that in our script so this 
doesn't happen in the future. (This has happened to us in the past as well and 
we've typically just re-installed, but I understand you aren't wanting to lose 
your archive.)

Can you give us an information on what you are seeing that's going wrong? Did 
this happen on all 3 machines, is EDEX still running, are data still getting 
ingested?

My first suggestion:
Stop EDEX
Check your configs to see if those got over-written.

If they did get over-written, update those and restart EDEX
If they did not, trying starting EDEX back up.

If that doesn't work we can try dumping your databases and keeping the hdf5 
folder before doing a new install.

Let me know if you want to join a google meet and we can help you go through 
your EDEX's



Thanks,
