To upgrade VCS

1. Perform the required steps to save any data that you wish to preserve. For example, make configuration file backups.
2. If you are upgrading a high availability (HA) product, take all service groups offline. List all service groups:

   # /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -list

   For each service group listed, take it offline:

   # /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hagrp -offline service_group -any

3. Start the Web-based installer.

   See Starting the Veritas Web-based installer.

4. On the Select a task and a product page, select Upgrade a Product from the Task drop-down menu.

   The installer detects the product that is installed on the specified system. Click Next.

5. Indicate the systems on which to upgrade. Enter one or more system names, separated by spaces. Click Next.
6. On the License agreement page, select whether you accept the terms of the End User License Agreement (EULA). To continue, select Yes I agree and click Next.
7. Click Next to complete the upgrade.

   After the upgrade completes, the installer displays the location of the log and summary files. If required, view the files to confirm the installation status.

8. If you are prompted to reboot the systems, enter the following reboot command:

   # /usr/sbin/shutdown -r now

9. Click Finish. The installer prompts you for another task.
10. If you want to upgrade VCS or SFHA 5.1 on the CP server systems to version VCS 6.0.1, make sure that you upgraded all application clusters to version VCS 6.0.1. Then, upgrade VCS or SFHA on the CP server systems. For instructions to upgrade VCS or SFHA, see the VCS or SFHA Installation Guide.
