3 Upgrading RAID Manager
For upgrading RAID Manager software, the RMuninst script on the CD-ROM is used.
For other media, use the following instructions to upgrade the RAID Manager software. The
instructions may be different for your platform. Consult your operating system documentation (for
example, UNIX man pages) for platform-specific command information.
Upgrading RAID Manager in a UNIX environment
Use the RMinstsh script on the CD-ROM to upgrade the RAID Manager software to a later version.
For other media, use the following instructions to upgrade the RAID Manager software to a later
version. The following instructions see UNIX commands that may be different on your platform.
Please consult your operating system documentation (for example, UNIX man pages) for
platform-specific command information.
To update the RAID Manager software version on a UNIX system:
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.
3. Move to the directory containing the HORCM directory (for example, # cd / for root directory).
4. Copy all files from the installation medium using the cpio command:
# cpio -idmu < /dev/XXXX 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 HORCM 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: 01-22-03/06
Usage: raidqry [options]
7. Changing the RAID Manager user: see “Changing the RAID Manager user (UNIX systems)”
(page 33) 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 panel opens, choose the Install/Uninstall tab and
select RAID Manager/HORC from the program products list.
4. Click Add/Remove to remove the RAID Manager software.
5. Insert the program product CD or diskette into the server, and on the Start menu choose the
Run command.
