Read this README_FIRST_VCS before you install. 1. If VCS is currently not running, use the patchadd command to install the patch on each system in the cluster: Install the following patch with Solaris 10 Sparc operating system: patch 141747-01 On each system in the cluster, change directory to the patches location. # patchadd 141747-01 2. Verify the patch is installed. # showrev -p | grep 141747-01 MANUALLY INSTALLING THE VCS PATCH ON A RUNNING CLUSTER ------------------------------------------------------ The manual installation option is for VCS users only. To manually apply the patch to a running VCS cluster: 0. Read this README_FIRST_VCS before you install. Perform steps 1 through 8 on one node of the cluster 1. Verify that /opt/VRTS/bin is in your PATH so you can execute all the product commands. Refer to the VCS Installation Guide for more information. 2. List the service groups in your cluster and their status. On any system, type: # hagrp -state 3. Take the ClusterService service group offline, if it is running. On any system type: # hagrp -offline -force ClusterService -sys 4. Make the VCS configuration writable. On any system, type: # haconf -makerw 5. Freeze all service groups. On any system, type: # hagrp -freeze -persistent 6. Save the configuration file (main.cf) with the groups frozen. On any system, type: # haconf -dump -makero 7. Shut down VCS. On any system, type: # hastop -all -force 8. Confirm VCS has shut down. Perform steps 9 through 12 on each nodes of the cluster 9. Change directory to the patch location. 10.

On each system, type: # /etc/rc3.d/S99vcs start 13. After VCS has started on all systems, perform the following steps: a. Verify all resources have been probed. On any system, type: # hastatus -summary b. Unfreeze all service groups. On any system, type: # haconf -makerw # hagrp -unfreeze -persistent # haconf -dump -makero c. Bring the ClusterService service group online, if necessary. On any system type: # hagrp -online ClusterService -sys REMOVING VCS PATCH ------------------ To remove the VCS patch: 1. If the cluster is running, on each system repeat step 2 through step 8 of the manual installation procedure. 2. Type the following command on each system: # patchrm 141747-01 3. Restart VCS. On each system, type: # /etc/rc3.d/S99vcs start 4. After VCS has started, perform the following steps: a. Verify all resources have been probed. On each system, type: # hastatus -summary b. Unfreeze all service groups. On any system, type: # haconf -makerw # hagrp -unfreeze -persistent # haconf -dump -makero c. Online the ClusterService service group, if necessary. On any system type: # hagrp -online ClusterService -sys
