Upgrade Existing dVRS Installation on XenServer

This section describes the steps for an upgrade to an existing installation of HP dVRS on the

Citrix XenServer 6.2.

The procedure is divided into two blocks, each block with a set of installation steps and a

corresponding set of verification steps.

Note: If you are running a pre-2.1.2 dVRS version and want to upgrade. Please do the

following

before

upgrade:

1. xe pif-scan host-uuid=<your host uuid>

2. xe-toolstack-restart

3. xe network-list name-label=hpManagedNetwork params=uuid

Gives hpManagedNetwork's UUID = HPNetUUID

xe network-params-set uuid $HPNetUUID name-label=" Pool-wide network

associated with ethX"

Where X is same as DEFAULT_BRIDGE=xenbrX in /etc/sysconfig/openvswitch

5. Upgrade dVRS as per instructions.

6. After reboot:

xe network-list name-label=HPManagedNetwork

You should see only one HPManagedNetwork with bridge=xapiX (where X is a whole

number).
