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.

A couple of quick questions - when you drop the WAR file into the webapps directory, does tomcat automatically expand the contents of the file? And is the WAR file format a typical way for vendors to distribute their apps to their customers, or is it normally a customer created file?
