To update the configuration and confirm startup

1. Remove the /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/.stale file, if it exists.

   # rm -f /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/.stale

2. Reboot the upgraded nodes.

   # /sbin/shutdown -r

3. After the nodes reboot, verify that LLT is running:

   # lltconfig
     LLT is running

4. Verify GAB is configured:

   # gabconfig -l | grep 'Driver.state' | \
     grep Configured
     Driver state : Configured

5. Verify VxVM daemon is started and enabled:

   # /opt/VRTS/bin/vxdctl mode
     mode: enabled

6. Confirm all upgraded nodes are in a running state.

   # gabconfig -a

7. After the configuration is complete, the CVM and SFCFS groups may come up frozen. To find out the frozen CVM and SFCFS groups, enter the following command:

   # /opt/VRTS/bin/hastatus -sum

   If the groups are frozen, unfreeze CVM and SFCFS groups using the following commands for each group:

   • Make the configuration read/write.

     # /opt/VRTS/bin/haconf -makerw

   • Unfreeze the group.

     # /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -unfreeze group -persistent

   • Save the configuration.

     # /opt/VRTS/bin/haconf -dump -makero

8. If VVR is configured, and the CVM and SFCFS groups are offline, bring the groups online in the following order:

   Bring online the CVM groups on all systems.

   # /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -online group -sys system01
   # /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -online group -sys system02

   where group is the VCS service group that has the CVMVolDg resource.

   Bring online the RVGShared groups and the virtual IP on the master node using the following commands:

   # hagrp -online RVGShared -sys masterhost
   # hares -online ip_name
   							masterhost

   Bring online the SFCFS groups on all systems.

   # /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -online group -sys system01
   # /opt/VRTS/bin/hagrp -online group -sys system02

   where group is the VCS service group that has the CFSMount resource.

   If the SFCFS service groups do not come online then your file system could be dirty.

9. Upgrade the remaining nodes.

   Note:

   If you upgrade to SFCFS 5.1 SP1 and the file systems are dirty, you have to deport the shared disk group and import it as non-shared. After the import, run fsck. fsck should succeed. Then deport the disk group and import it back as shared.
