REBOOT REQUIRED : Yes SUPPORTS ROLLBACK : NO I. Overview ========== This readme is for upgrading from N8300 5.7GA or 5.7P1 to 5.7P2. This release patch includes two components: N8300 FileStore patch (SFSFS-patch-5.7P2_rc9_2012_04_25.tar.gz) N8300 ISM (Integrated Service Manager) patch (n8k_patch_2012_06_13.tar.gz) Notes: 1. Patch upgrade will cause service failover from one node to another which will take about 15 seconds. This will not impact NFS client mounts and replication jobs, but CIFS client mounts will need to connect again, and backup jobs need to be resumed as well after an upgrade. 2. For the above reason, it is recommended to stop CIFS, backup, and EV I/O loads during an upgrade. 3. The 5.7P2 patch can only be applied to 5.7GA and 5.7P1 releases, not for the 5.6 release. 4. Patch upgrade cannot be rollbacked once applied. II. Upgrade procedure ===================== Prerequisites ------------- 1. Stop I/O load on client or stop services: Via ISM: ISM ----> CIFS ---> CIFS Service ---->Disable ISM ----> FTP ----> FTP Service ---->Disable ISM ----> HTTP ----> HTTP Service ---->Disable Via CLISH: N8300>CIFS server stop N8300>FTP server stop N8300>HTTP server stop N8300>Backup stop 2.

If fencing is enabled, turn off fencing, and remove I/O fencing before the upgrade: N8300> storage fencing off N8300> storage fencing destroy 4. Total patch upgrade time is about 45 minutes for a two-node cluster. 5. Symantec N8300 5.7P2 has the same array version as 5.7GA and 5.7P1. The system version should be 126.T03 and SES version should be 077. Change Disk Array S5600 working mode ------------------------------------ We upgraded ASL (Array Support Library) package for this version; It only supports Disk Array S5600 A/A-A working mode.

Master node will be installed last and will reboot, hence the above command will break. 3. Monitor and check cluster status: To check that the installation is done, login to the master node again (should switch to another node), and check that all nodes are at the RUNNING state: N8300>cluster show ---- ----- ----------- -------- -------- -------- -------- N8300_01 RUNNING 0.98 0.01 0.00 0.01 0.00 N8300_02 RUNNING 0.97 0.01 0.00 0.01 0.00 N8300_02:~ # gabconfig -a GAB Port Memberships =============================================================== Port a gen 1d4604 membership 01 Port b gen 1d4607 membership 01 Port f gen 1d4611 membership 01 Port h gen 1d4619 membership 01 Port u gen 1d460f membership 01 Port v gen 1d460b membership 01 Port w gen 1d460d membership 01 Note: Please refer to the Symantec FileStore N8300 5.7 Command Reference Guide for "support" user login and details of patch installation.
