6.3 HP StoreAll 9300/9320 Storage Administrator Guide (AW549-96072, June 2013)

1. On the node hosting the active management console, force a backup of the management
console configuration:
<ibrixhome>/bin/ibrix_fm -B
The output is stored at /usr/local/ibrix/tmp/fmbackup.zip. Be sure to save this file
in a location outside of the cluster.
2. On the node hosting the passive management console, place the management console into
maintenance mode:
<ibrixhome>/bin/ibrix_fm -m maintenance -A
3. On the active management console node, move the <installer_dir>/ibrix directory
used in the previous release installation to ibrix.old. For example, if you expanded the
tarball in /root during the previous StoreAll installation on this node, the installer is in /root/
ibrix.
4. On the active management console node, expand the distribution tarball or mount the
distribution DVD in a directory of your choice. Expanding the tarball creates a subdirectory
named ibrix that contains the installer program. For example, if you expand the tarball in
/root, the installer is in /root/ibrix.
5. Change to the installer directory if necessary and run the upgrade:
./ibrixupgrade -f
The installer upgrades both the management console software and the file serving node
software on this node.
6. Verify the status of the management console:
/etc/init.d/ibrix_fusionmanager status
The status command confirms whether the correct services are running. Output will be similar
to the following:
Fusion Manager Daemon (pid 18748) running...
7. Check /usr/local/ibrix/log/fusionserver.log for errors.
8. Upgrade the remaining management console node. Move the ibrix directory used in the
previous release to ibrix.old. Then expand the distribution tarball or mount the distribution
DVD in a directory of your choice. Expanding the tarball creates a subdirectory named ibrix
that contains the installer program. For example, if you expand the tarball in
nl
/root, the installer is in /root/ibrix.
9. Change to the installer directory if necessary and run the upgrade:
./ibrixupgrade -f
The installer upgrades both the management console software and the file serving node
software on the node.
10. On the node that was just upgraded and has its management console in maintenance mode,
move the management console back to passive mode:
<ibrixhome>/bin/ibrix_fm -m passive
The node now resumes its normal backup operation for the active management console.
Upgrading remaining file serving nodes
Complete the following steps on the remaining file serving nodes:
1. Move the <installer_dir>/ibrix directory used in the previous release installation to
ibrix.old. For example, if you expanded the tarball in /root during the previous StoreAll
installation on this node, the installer is in /root/ibrix.
2. Expand the distribution tarball or mount the distribution DVD in a directory of your choice.
Expanding the tarball creates a subdirectory named ibrix that contains the installer program.
For example, if you expand the tarball in /root, the installer is in /root/ibrix.
3. Change to the installer directory if necessary and execute the following command:
./ibrixupgrade -f
