command:

# /etc/init.d/pmxs start

All servers are now running Matrix Server 3.1.2 in 64-bit mode.

Matrix Server 3.0.1 Without MxFS-Linux

This procedure is a double upgrade. The first upgrade takes the operating

system to SLES9 SP2 in 32-bit mode and installs Matrix Server. When all

servers are running Matrix Server 3.1.2, the second upgrade is done to

take the operating system to SP2 in 64-bit mode. Matrix Server must then

be reinstalled to take advantage of 64-bit mode.

Complete the following steps to perform the upgrade.

NOTE: Upgrade the server with the highest IP address first. Then

continue to upgrade the servers in descending order of IP address,

with the lowest numbered server being upgraded last.

1. Back up the Matrix Server configuration as described under “Back Up

the Existing Matrix” on page 2.

2. Stop Matrix Server on the server:

# /etc/init.d/pmxs stop

3. If the following Matrix Server configuration files have been modified

at your site, save copies of the files. After the second installation of

Matrix Server, you can merge your local changes into the new versions

of the files.

/etc/polyserve/mxinit.conf

/etc/polyserve/scl.conf

/etc/polyserve/fc_pcitable

/etc/polyserve/san_snmp.conf

4. If you are going to do a fresh installation of the operating system, skip

to step 9. Otherwise, continue with the following steps.
