6.7.1 Upgrading on Non-clustered Systems

6.7.1.1 Preparing for Upgrade

Point

It is recommended that you back up the system before starting the upgrade. If a failure occurs during the upgrade, you cannot restore the environment to the pre-installation status (rollback).

When returning back to the state before installation of the upgrade, recover (restore) the system from the backup.

6.7.1.1.1 Backing Up Environment Setting Files

With the following procedure, backup the operation environment of the previous version of the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module.
Note that the capacity required for performing this backup is 100 MB.

  1. Login to the server on which to perform the tasks. Perform operations after logging in with root (superuser).

  2. Insert the DVD "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM Mediapack for Solaris (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" or "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack for Linux 64bit (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" of this version into the DVD drive.

  3. Mount the DVD media.

    • Example for Solaris environments

      # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0 dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0".

    • Example for Linux environments

      # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/cdrom dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/cdrom".

  4. Execute the following command to perform a backup of the previous version.

    For backupDir, specify the directory in which to store the backup data with an absolute path.

    # dvdMountPoint/Manager_unix/vuptools/esfccmpreinst.sh backupDir

    When the backup fails, after confirming the output error message and removing the cause of the failure, re-execute the command.

    Point

    • Spaces and the characters " / ` * ? \ $ [ ] , % ! { } are not supported for directory name.

    • The number of characters in a directory name must be up to 220.

6.7.1.1.2 Checking for Available Disk Space

Ensure that there is enough available disk space on the server where the upgrade is performed.
The required disk space for the upgrade is calculated as the "Required Disk Space for New Version" minus the "Required Disk Space for Previous Version".

Required Disk Space for New Version

The space required to install this version of the ETERNUS SF Manager or AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module. Refer to the following locations in the Installation and Setup Guide for this version for information on the required disk space.

  • For using the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module in ETERNUS SF Manager

    "Operating Environment of ETERNUS SF Manager"

  • For installing the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module

    "Operating Environment of AdvancedCopy Manager CCM"

Required Disk Space for Previous Version

The space required to install previous version of the ETERNUS SF Manager or AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module. Refer to the following locations in the Installation and Setup Guide for the relevant previous version for information on the required disk space.

  • When using the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module included in the ETERNUS SF Manager Program

    "Operating environment of the ETERNUS SF Manager"

  • When installing and using the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module Program

    "Operating environment of the AdvancedCopy Manager CCM"

6.7.1.2 Performing Upgrade (for Solaris, Linux)

Refer to "C.6 Procedures for Upgrade Installation of AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module Version 15.x (for Solaris, Linux)" to perform the upgrade.

Information

When the Upgrade Installation terminates in an error, perform recovery by following the steps outlined below.

  1. Install the target version.

  2. If the installation is successfully completed, continue from "6.7.1.3 Tasks to Be Performed After Upgrade".

6.7.1.3 Tasks to Be Performed After Upgrade

6.7.1.3.1 Restoring Environment Setting Files

With the following procedure, restore the operation environment of the previous version of the AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module. Note that if step 1 through step 3 have already been performed, perform from step 4.

  1. Login to the server on which to perform the tasks. Perform operations after logging in with root (superuser).

  2. Insert the DVD "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM Mediapack for Solaris (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" or "ETERNUS SF SC/ACM/Express Mediapack for Linux 64bit (V16.9 or higher) Manager Program (2/2)" of this version into the DVD drive.

  3. Mount the DVD media.

    • Example for Solaris environments

      # mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0 dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/dsk/c0t4d0s0".

    • Example for Linux environments

      # mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/cdrom dvdMountPoint

      The device name of the DVD drive may differ depending on the device. In this example, the device name of the DVD drive is mounted as "/dev/cdrom".

  4. Execute the following command to perform a restore of the previous version.

    For backupDir, specify the directory in which the backup data is stored with an absolute path.

    # dvdMountPoint/Manager_unix/vuptools/esfccmpostinst.sh backupDir

    When the restore fails, after confirming the output error message and removing the cause of the failure, re-execute the command.

    Point

    • Spaces and the characters " / ` * ? \ $ [ ] , % ! { } are not supported for directory name.

    • The number of characters in a directory name must be up to 220.

  5. Unmount the DVD media.

    # umount dvdMountPoint
  6. Eject the DVD media.

6.7.1.3.2 Deleting Backup Data

Once normal operation has been confirmed after the upgrade, the backup data in the backup destination directory created in step 4 of "6.7.1.1.1 Backing Up Environment Setting Files" maybe deleted.
