Chapter 2: “All-at-Once” Upgrades 4
# rpm -e pmxs-sles9-support
6. Uninstall the HP Clustered File System patches:
# rpm -e pmxs-patches
7. Uninstall HP Clustered File System. This step does not remove your
existing cluster configuration or log files. The cluster software must be
uninstalled from a location outside of the cluster directory structure
(/opt/hpcfs).
Run this command on the server:
# rpm -e pmxs
The following message then appears:
Stopping HP StorageWorks Clustered File System
This server needs to be rebooted before the product removal
can proceed.
/etc/init.d/pmxs has been moved to /etc/init.d/Pmxs to avoid
HP StorageWorks Clustered File System from starting automatically
on boot.
error: %preun(pmxs-<ver>-release) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
Reboot the server and run the rpm -e command again. HP Clustered
File System will now be uninstalled.
NOTE: When the uninstall is complete, you will see a message listing
files and directories that could not be removed. Do not
manually remove any of these files.
8. Install the HP Clustered File System Support RPMs and rebuild the
kernel as described in Appendix A (SLES9).
9. Reboot all servers.
10. Install HP Clustered File System 3.1.1p1 from the HP Clustered File
System product where you have downloaded the software.
# rpm -i pmxs-3.1.1p1-<xxxx>.<arch>.rpm
