InfoScale™ 9.0 Storage Foundation Cluster File System High Availability Configuration and Upgrade Guide - Solaris

Perform the following steps for the Primary and Secondary clusters:

1. Log in as the superuser.
2. Make sure that /opt/VRTS/bin is in your PATH so that you can execute all the product commands.
3. Before the upgrade, cleanly shut down all applications.

   In a shared disk group environment:

   • OFFLINE all application service groups that do not contain RVGShared resources. Do not OFFLINE the ClusterService, cvm and RVGLogowner groups.

   • If the application resources are part of the same service group as an RVGShared resource, then OFFLINE only the application resources.

   In a private disk group environment:

   • OFFLINE all application service groups that do not contain RVG resources. Do not OFFLINE the service groups containing RVG resources.

   • If the application resources are part of the same service group as an RVG resource, then OFFLINE only the application resources. In other words, ensure that the RVG resource remains ONLINE so that the private disk groups containing these RVG objects do not get deported.

   Note:

   You must also stop any remaining applications not managed by VCS.

4. On any node in the cluster, make the VCS configuration writable:

   # haconf -makerw

5. On any node in the cluster, list the groups in your configuration:

   # hagrp -list

6. On any node in the cluster, freeze all service groups except the ClusterService group by typing the following command for each group name displayed in the output from step 5.

   # hagrp -freeze group_name -persistent

   Note:

   Make a note of the list of frozen service groups for future use.

7. On any node in the cluster, save the configuration file (main.cf) with the groups frozen:

   # haconf -dump -makero

   Note:

   Continue only after you have performed steps 3 to step 7 for each node of the cluster.

8. Display the list of service groups that have RVG resources and the nodes on which each service group is online by typing the following command on any node in the cluster:

   # hares -display -type RVG -attribute State
    Resource       Attribute        System     Value
    VVRGrp          State           sys2   ONLINE
    ORAGrp          State           sys2   ONLINE

   Note:

   For the resources that are ONLINE, write down the nodes displayed in the System column of the output.

9. Repeat step 8 for each node of the cluster.
10. For private disk groups, determine and note down the hosts on which the disk groups are imported.

    See Determining the nodes on which disk groups are online.

11. For shared disk groups, run the following command on any node in the CVM cluster:

    # vxdctl -c mode

    Note the master and record it for future use.
