HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 3.2.1 Windows Storage Server Edition Setup Guide (February 2006)
Chapter 4: Upgrade HP Clustered File System 42
19. On each server in group B, uninstall the HP Clustered File System for
CIFS Solution Pack, if it is installed on the server. Use the Control
Panel Add/Remove Programs interface to do this.
20. On each server in group B, upgrade the operating system and/or
service pack if necessary.
21. If you will be adding third-party MPIO software to the cluster, install
it on each server in group B according to the product documentation.
22. On each server in group B, upgrade HBA drivers if necessary.
23. If necessary, reboot the servers in group B. (You will need to reboot the
servers if this step is required by an operating system upgrade or if
you installed a new HBA driver in step 24.)
24. If you upgraded the operating system on the servers in group B, run
the mxcheck utility on the servers. This utility verifies that the server’s
configuration meets the requirements for running HP Clustered File
System.
To run mxcheck, insert the HP Clustered File System CD into the CD
drive or go to the directory where you downloaded the produc, and
then double-click the file mxcheck.exe.
Output from the utility is displayed on the screen, and is written to the
Application Log section of the Event Viewer. We recommend that you
fix any problems identified by mxcheck before you install HP
Clustered File System.
25. On each server in group B, install HP Clustered File System 3.2.1.
Locate the file MxS_3.2.1.0138.msi on the product CD or in the
directory where you downloaded the software. Double-click the
MxS_3.2.1.0138.msi file and run the Installation Wizard. To complete
the installation, reboot the servers as directed by the popup message.
26. On each server in group B, install any HP Solution Packs.
– For HP Clustered File System for CIFS, insert the Solution Pack CD
into the CD drive or go to the location where you have
downloaded the software. Then double-click the file
MxFS_3.2.1.0138.msi and run the Installation Wizard.
