Upgrading to a Different SG SMS Bundle
Upgrades to HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite bundles can fall into any one of three
categories:
• Rolling Upgrade - The upgrade is done online
• Offline Upgrade - The cluster nodes must be taken offline and all nodes must be upgraded
with the same SG SMS bundle - for an alternative offline upgrade procedure that minimizes
downtime, see “Cluster Offline Upgrade Option” (page 25).
• Uninstall - The SG SMS bundle must be uninstalled before the upgraded SG SMS bundle
can be installed, then the software must be reconfigured (the cluster must also be
reconfigured, if a CFS bundle is installed).
The arrows (→) in the rows in Table 1-4: “Supported SG SMS Bundle Upgrade Paths” (page 24),
show the supported upgrade paths for various SG SMS bundles:
