To upgrade SF

1. Perform the required steps to save any data that you wish to preserve. For example, make configuration file backups.
2. Start the Web-based installer.

   See Starting the Veritas Web-based installer.

3. 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.

4. Indicate the systems on which to upgrade. Enter one or more system names, separated by spaces. Click Next.
5. 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.
6. The installer discovers if any of the systems that you are upgrading have mirrored and encapsulated boot disks. For each system that has a mirrored boot disk, you have the option to create a backup of the book disk group. To create the backup, check the Split mirrors on all the systems box. Check the appropriate box to use the same name for the backup disk group on all systems--you can use the default name or choose a new one. Check the systems where you want to create the backup. When you are ready, click the Next button.
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. After the upgrade, if the product is not configured, the Web-based installer asks: "Do you want to configure this product?" If the product is already configured, it will not ask any questions.
10. Click Finish. The installer prompts you for another task.
11. Only perform this step if you have split the mirrored root disk to back it up. After a successful reboot, verify the upgrade and re-join the backup disk group into the upgraded boot disk group. If the upgrade fails, revert the upgrade boot disk group to the backup disk group.

    See Re-joining the backup boot disk group into the current disk group.

    See Reverting to the backup boot disk group after an unsuccessful upgrade.
