HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Version A.02.01 for HP-UX 11i v2 Release Notes, Edition 2 (May 2010)

Typically these software products are delivered with new versions of HP-UX 11i v2 MCOE
media, but the latest HP-UX 11i v2 MCOE media (December 2007) was created before the
T2794CA, T2795CA, T2796CA, and T2797CA SG SMS version A.02.00 MCOE bundles, and it
does not contain the required versions of Serviceguard and ECMT.
New versions of Serviceguard and ECMT are delivered on the Application Release (AR) media.
The most recent HP-UX 11i v2 AR media contains the versions of Serviceguard and ECMT, which
are required to upgrade or newly install any of the SG SMS version A.02.01 MCOE bundles.
Building a Common Depot for the Installation
The tasks in the following example are performed on a depot server (in the example, the name
of the depot server is sw-depot.hp.com):
1. Copy the SG SMS product (for example, T2795CA) and the required VxVM and VxFS software
from the SG SMS version A.02.01 media (mounted at /mnt/SMS.depot) to the installation
depot (/mnt/install.depot) residing on the depot server.
$ swcopy -x enforce_dependencies=false –s /mnt/SMS.depot Base-VxFS-50 Base-VxVM-50 T2795CA @
/mnt/install.depot
2. Copy Serviceguard (T1905CA ) and ECMT (T1909BA) from the latest AR media mounted
at /mnt/AR.depotto the installation depot /mnt/install.depot:
$ swcopy -x enforce_dependencies=false –s /mnt/AR.depot T1905CA T1909BA @ /mnt/install.depot
Performing the Installation or Upgrade
1. Shutdown the cluster or shutdown an individual node (depending on whether you are doing
offline or rolling upgrade).
2. Install the software from the installation depot on all cluster nodes (either in parallel for
offline upgrades, or one at a time for rolling upgrades) running the following command on
each cluster node:
$ swinstall -x autoreboot=true -s sw-depot.hp.com:/mnt/install.depot Base-VxFS-50 Base-VxVM-50 T1905CA
T1909BA T2795CA
3. After the software has been successfully installed on all of the cluster nodes:
• If an offline upgrade was performed, the cluster can be restarted.
• If a rolling upgrade was performed, each upgraded node can rejoin the cluster as soon
the upgrade is completed. See Table 1-5 (page 25) for upgrade paths that support rolling
or offline upgrades.
Removing HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite
The SD-UX swremove command is used to uninstall the HP Serviceguard Storage Management
Suite software. The swremove command must be issued on one system at a time.
