Upgrading from 3.5 to 5.0

SFCFS can be upgraded from 3.5 to 5.0 using phased or full upgrade procedure.

Phased upgrade

system04 where system01 and system02 are initially upgraded and rest of the
cluster is brought up later.

Log in as superuser.

Select one or more nodes to upgrade, say system01 and system02.

Insert the appropriate software disc into your system's DVD drive.

Determine the block device file for the DVD drive:

# ioscan -fnC disk

Make a note of the device file as it applies to your system.

Create a directory in which to mount the software disc and mount the disc
using the appropriate drive name. For example:

# mkdir -p /dvdrom

# /usr/sbin/mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /dvdrom

Change to the top-level directory on the disc:

# cd /dvdrom

7

Offline all SFCFS resources on nodes selected in step 2 by running the
following commands on one of the cluster nodes.

# hagrp -offline service_group -sys system01

# hagrp -offline service_group -sys system02

where service_group is the command that displays the service groups by

hagrp -dep cvm

.

Remove the VRTScavf and VRTSglm 3.5 packages from these nodes and run
the following commands on system01 and system02.
