Upgrade HP Clustered File
System
Overview
This chapter describes how to upgrade to HP Clustered File System 3.2.1.
Upgrades are supported from HP Clustered File System 2.7.2.
It is not necessary to upgrade the stand-alone Management Console,
which is used to connect to the cluster from hosts not running the cluster
software. When you use the stand-alone Management Console to connect
to a cluster running version 3.2.1, the latest version of the Management
Console will be downloaded to the host.
Back Up the Existing Cluster
Before starting the upgrade, we strongly recommend that you back up
your existing cluster on each server.
The default location for HP Clustered File System is C:\Program
Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Clustered File System. Be sure to back up
the \conf directory, and the cluster configuration files it contains, from
that location. If HP Clustered File System was installed in a location
other than the default, the \conf directory and corresponding files can
be found in that location. The default installed location for the HP
Clustered File System 2.7.2 is C:\Program Files\HPCFS. The cluster
configuration files can be found in C:\Program
Files\HPCFS\MatrixServer\conf directory.
