3.1.2 Matrix Server Upgrade Guide

Chapter 3: Single Upgrade Procedures 24

# rpm -i <mountpoint>/mxfs-sles9-support-3.1.2-<xxxx>.<arch>.rpm

Then install MxFS-Linux 3.1.2 from the product CD or the location

where you have downloaded the software. Be sure to install the RPM

that corresponds to your architecture (i386 for 32-bit or x86_64 for 64-

bit).

# rpm -i <mountpoint>/mxfs-3.1.2-<xxxx>.<arch>.rpm

18. Copy your new license file to /etc/opt/polyserve/licenses/license on the

server.

19. If you did a fresh installation of the operating system, recreate the

mount points for PSFS filesystems.

20. Start Matrix Server on the upgraded server. Run the following

command:

# /etc/init.d/pmxs start

21. Set up SSH authentication so that root can ssh to all other nodes

without a password. (Matrix Server provides a tool (/opt/polyserve/

tools/mkkeymesh.sh) that can perform this configuration for you.)

22. Start the migration tool to migrate Virtual NFS Servers to the new

format:

# cd /opt/polyserve/tools

# ./mxfsmigrate.sh --begin

You will be prompted for the password for Matrix Server user admin.

23. Run the following command on the node that was just upgraded:

# ./mxfsmigrate.sh --add 1st_node

24. The migration script re-enables the node that has been migrated and

asks you to specify the next node to be upgraded (the node with the

next highest IP address). That node will be disabled.

25. Upgrade the node that was just disabled. (Complete steps 1 through

20 of this procedure.)

26. On the node that was upgraded first, run the following command,

where next_node is the node disabled in step 24.

# ./mxfsmigrate.sh --add next_node
