3.1.2 Matrix Server Upgrade Guide

Chapter 4: Double Upgrade Procedures 47

16. Install the MxFS-Linux support RPM from the MxFS-Linux product

CD or the location where you have downloaded the software.

# rpm -i <mountpoint>/mxfs-sles9-support-3.1.2-<xxxx>.i386.rpm

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

where you have downloaded the software.

# rpm -i <mountpoint>/mxfs-3.1.2-<xxxx>.i386.rpm

17. Copy your new license file to /etc/polyserve/licenses/license on the server.

18. If you performed a fresh installation of the operating system, recreate

mount points for the PSFS filesystems.

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

command:

# /etc/init.d/pmxs start

20. 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.)

21. 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.

22. Run the following command on the node that was upgraded:

# ./mxfsmigrate.sh --add 1st_node

23. 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.

24. Upgrade the node that was just disabled. (Complete steps 2 through

19 of this procedure.)

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

where next_node is the node that was disabled in step 23.

# ./mxfsmigrate.sh --add next_node
