3.7.0 HP StorageWorks HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software upgrade guide HP Scalable NAS for Linux (AG513-96005, October 2009)

16. This step applies only to the first node to be upgraded. Skip this step when
upgrading subsequent nodes.
a. Run the mximport tool to import the cluster configuration from a node
running 3.5.1. The mximport tool automatically collects the necessary
cluster configuration information from the 3.5.1 node and sets a flag on
the node being upgraded to indicate that this is an upgraded node. The
3.5.1 node must be accessible via ssh.
# mximport
mximport asks for the following information: the hostname, the root
password for the 3.5.1 node, and the Matrix Server admin password for
the 3.5.1 cluster. The configuration information is then imported.
b. Copy your new license file to /etc/opt/hpcfs/licenses/license
on the server.
c. Skip step 17 and go to step 18.
17. Import the cluster configuration from the node that was upgraded first:
# mx config import <server_upgraded_first>
18. Change the HBA driver if necessary. HP Scalable NAS includes several versions
of the HBA drivers for the supported FC host bus adapters. For each host bus
adapter, one driver version is designated as the default in the /etc/opt/
hpcfs/fc_pcitable file. If you require a different driver version (a version
included with HP Scalable NAS or from another source), you can install that
driver version in place of the HP Scalable NAS default version. For more
information, see “Host Bus Adapters (HBAs)” in the HP Scalable NAS File Serving
Software administration guide. Although the procedure in the administration
guide instructs you to start HP Scalable NAS, do not start the product until you
are asked to do so later in the upgrade. If you need to enable the failover feature
on the QLogic HBA driver, see Chapter 6 in the administration guide.
NOTE:
The /etc/hba.conf file must point to the correct hbaapi library.
