Cluster Upgrade

Download Upgrade Contents

Info

Within the labs we have mounted some external media which houses the required files. You will need to mount your own drive or copy over the files using SCP or similar.

Additionally in a real world scenario you need to use your existing HyperStore license when extracting the binaries, this will be available for download from the customer portal. Care must be taken to ensure you select the correct license from those available to you.

Instructions

SSH into your Config / Installer node (Node 1) as sa_admin and create a new session using option 0
Create an upgrade directory
```
mkdir CloudianPackages7.5.3
```
Change to that directory
```
cd CloudianPackages7.5.3
```

Copy the upgrade binary to your upgrade directory

cp /studentfiles/CloudianHyperStore-7.5.3.bin .

Copy the upgrade signature file to your upgrade directory
```
cp /studentfiles/CloudianHyperStore-7.5.3.bin.sig .
```
Copy the license file to your upgrade directory
```
cp /opt/cloudian/conf/cloudian_license.lic .
```
Ensure files are as expected
```
ls -l
```

Software Upgrade

Instructions

Modify the file permission to make it executable
```
chmod +x CloudianHyperStore-7.5.3.bin
```

Extract binary by executing

hsrun --root CloudianHyperStore-7.5.3.bin cloudian_12345.lic

Warning

Ensure that the version you are unpacking is the version you are upgrading to. Unpacking an older binary version (such as your current deployment version) will cause problems with your cluster.

Instructions

Run the command hspkg install to continue with the upgrade
```
hspkg install
```
You will be presented with a menu, and an option to upgrade from 7.5.2 to 7.5.3
Type '3' to select the option to upgrade then press Enter
When asked if you would like to run basic tests, answer No
When asked if you want to proceed with upgrade, type Yes

The upgrade will take about 45 minutes to complete.

Instructions

Once the upgrade finishes, you will return to the menu of the cloudianInstall.sh script
Select 'x' to exit the script

Warning

It is important to exit out of the cloudianInstall.sh script when you are done, as other operations done through the CMC will also utilize the same script. If there is a process using the script (such as your terminal), other operations will fail.
