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.

34. Uninstall the Management Console:

# rpm -e mxconsole

35. Upgrade the operating system to 64-bit mode SLES9 SP2 or do a fresh

installation of the operating system.

36. Install the Matrix Server Support RPM (use the 64-bit version) and the

MxFS-Linux kernel patches RPM and then compile the kernel and

reboot. Be sure to verify that the kernel is patched correctly for MxFS-

Linux. See Appendix B for more information.

37. If you did a fresh installation of the operating system, extract the

backup tar files saved in step 29 to /etc/opt/polyserve and /var/opt/

polyserve.

38. 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

39. If you saved any Matrix Server configuration files in step 4, compare

the saved files with the new versions of the files that were installed

with Matrix Server 3.1. You will need to migrate your customized

values from the old files to the new files as necessary.

40. Install the Management Console:

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

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

CD or the location where you have downloaded the software.
