27. Install the Management Console:

# rpm -i <mountpoint>/mxconsole-3.1.2-<xxxx>.i586.rpm

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

server.

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

points for the PSFS filesystem.

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

command:

# /etc/init.d/pmxs start

31. Repeat steps 17 through 30 on the remaining servers.

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

If you want to enable filesystem quotas on your PSFS filesystems, you

will need to unmount the filesystems one-at-a-time and then enable

quotas. For more information, see “Enable or Disable Quotas” in Chapter

8 of the PolyServe Matrix Server Administration Guide.

Matrix Server 3.0.1 With 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.

This procedure also describes how to upgrade the Matrix File Serving

Solution Pack for Linux (MxFS-Linux) to the 3.1.2 release. During the first

upgrade, you will need to run a script that migrates your Virtual NFS

Services to the format used in 3.1.2.

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. Disable the server to cause any active Virtual NFS Services to migrate

to another server. (Right-click on the server and select Disable).
