3 Upgrading RAID Manager
For upgrading RAID Manager software, the RMuninst script on the CD-ROM is used.
For other media, please use the instructions in this chapter to upgrade the RAID Manager software.
The instructions may be different on your platform. Please consult your operating system
documentation (for example, UNIX man pages) for platform-specific command information.
Upgrading RAID Manager in a UNIX environment
To update the RAID Manager software in a UNIX system to a later version, execute following
procedures:
1.
Confirm that HORCM is not running. If it is running, shut it down:
One RAID Manager instance: # horcmshutdown.sh Two RAID Manager instances: #
horcmshutdown.sh 0 1
If RAID Manager commands are running in the interactive mode, terminate the interactive
mode and exit these commands using -q option.
2. Insert the installation medium (for example, CD-ROM) into the proper I/O device. Please use
the RMinstsh (RMINSTSH) under ./program/RM directory on the CD for the installation (if you
use LINUX/IA64 or LINUX/X64, execute ../../RMinstsh after moving to LINUX/IA64 or
LINUX/X64 directory).
3. Move to the directory containing the HORCM directory (for example, # cd / for the root
directory).
4. Copy all files from the installation medium using the cpio command: # cpio -idmu <
/dev/XXXX
where XXXX = I/O device
Preserve the directory structure (d flag) and file modification times (m flag), and copy
unconditionally (u flag). For floppy disks, load them sequentially, and repeat the command.
An input/output device name of floppy disk designates a surface partition of the raw device
file (unpartitioned raw device file).
5. Execute the RAID Manager installation command: # /HORCM/horcminstall.sh
6. Verify installation of the proper version using the raidqry command:
# raidqry -h
Model: RAID-Manager/HP-UX
Ver&Rev: 01-24-03/12
Usage: raidqry [options]
7. Changing the RAID Manager user: see (page 45) to ensure that the RAID Manager user is
appropriately set for the upgraded/installed files.
Upgrading RAID Manager in a Windows environment
To update the RAID Manager software version on a Windows system:
1.
You can upgrade the RAID Manager software only when RAID Manager is not running. If
RAID Manager is running, shut down RAID Manager using the horcmshutdown command to
ensure a normal end to all functions.
2. On the Control panel select the Add/Remove programs option.
3. When the Add/Remove Program Properties window opens, select P9000 Raid Manager XP
for WindowsNT from the program products list.
4. Click Remove to remove the RAID Manager software.
5. Insert the installation medium (example: CD-ROM) into the proper I/O device of the system.
