Introduction This document describes the upgrade of Matrix infrastructure orchestration Operations Orchestration 9.x subset (embedded OO) hosted on the Central Management Server (CMS) to full Operations Orchestration 10.x (full OO) hosted on a separate server. Matrix Operating Environment (Matrix OE) infrastructure orchestration is a software package providing core automation of data center infrastructure lifecycle operations to enable the creation of a self–service datacenter.

CMS updates and upgrades The table below shows OO 10.x versions certified by Matrix OE.

IMPORTANT: Operations Orchestration behaves differently than OO 9.x, in that a flow will pause when encountering a System Property with a blank value (whereas flows in OO 9.x would fail). As a result, leaving the System Property blank will cause many flows to enter a pause state. If email flows will not be used, HP recommends that you disable them in the hpio.properties configuration file. Examine any other flows with blank System Property values and modify them as needed.

Redirect infrastructure orchestration and Matrix OE on the CMS to the OO server To invoke infrastructure orchestration and ESA-supplied OO flows on the OO server, infrastructure orchestration and Matrix OE on the CMS need to know which external server is the OO server by either the OO server’s IP address or FQDN. To redirect IO and Matrix OE on the CMS to invoke infrastructure orchestration-supplied OO flows on the OO server: 1. 2. 3. 4. On the CMS, stop infrastructure orchestration service: a.

Appendix B How to use HP OO 10.x content upgrade utility plugins The Content Upgrade Utility (CUU) is an OO 10.x development tool that extracts specified content from an existing HP OO 9.x repository, and upgrades the extracted content into a content pack that can be deployed in HP OO 10.x. Note: This tool must be used in a content development context, not in production OO servers. During the content upgrade process, the CUU excludes HP OO out-of-the-box content from the upgrade.
