Upgrading from V2.2 to V2.4

Backup the cluster user-level data.

Install the V2.4 backup utilities.

% swinstall -s <depot_with_V2.4> CPACK-BACKUP

Take a backup of the cluster information.

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/clbackup -f <backup_file_name>

Copy the backup file to another system for safe keeping.

Remove the TCP wrappers on your Compute Nodes.

% clsh /usr/bin/perl -p -i -e “‘s^ /usr/lbin/tcpd^^;’” /etc/inetd.conf

Remove Compute Nodes from the HP SIM database.

% /opt/sysinvmgr/bin/simdevice -r ‘ /opt/sysinvmgr/bin/simdevice -l | egrep ^Name: | awk ‘{print “-n”, $2}’ | grep \.’

Install the new ClusterPack manager software.

% swinstall -s <depot_with_V2.4> CPACK-MGR

Run manager_config in upgrade mode using the file you created in Step 3.

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/manager_config -u <backup_file_name>

Register your MP cards. (To save time, check out the new -f option to compute_config.)

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/mp_register

Install the new software on the Compute Nodes. (The -u is important.)

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/compute_config -u

Verify that everything is working as expected.

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/finalize_config
