The following message then appears:
Stopping PolyServe Matrix Server
This server needs to be rebooted before the product removal
can proceed.
/etc/init.d/pmxs has been moved to /etc/init.d/Pmxs to avoid
PolyServe Matrix Server from starting automatically on boot.
error: %preun(pmxs-<ver>-release) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
Reboot the server and run the rpm -e command again. Matrix Server
will now be uninstalled.
NOTE: When the uninstall is complete, you will see a message listing
files and directories that could not be removed. Do not
manually remove any of these files.
21. Uninstall the Management Console:
# rpm -e mxconsole
22. Upgrade the operating system to 64-bit mode SLES9 SP2 or do a fresh
installation. (See Appendix B for information about files that need to
be modified.)
23. Install the kernel as described in Appendix B. If you will be building a
kernel from source, be sure to install the 64-bit version of the
PolyServe Support RPM.
24. If you did a fresh installation of the operating system, extract the
backup tar files saved in step 17 to /etc/opt/polyserve and /var/opt/
polyserve.
25. Install Matrix Server 3.1.2 from the Matrix Server product CD or the
location where you have downloaded the software. Be sure to install
the 64-bit version of the RPM.
# rpm -i <mountpoint>/pmxs-3.1.2-<xxxx>.x86_64.rpm
26. If you saved any Matrix Server configuration files in step 3, compare
the saved files with the new versions of the files that were installed
with Matrix Server 3.1. (The new versions were installed in the
directory /etc/opt/polyserve.) You will need to migrate your customized
values from the old files to the new files as necessary.
