HP-UX Containers (SRP) A.03.01 Release Notes

7
• When upgrading from an HP-UX Containers A.03.00 enabled environment to HP-UX
Containers A.03.01, all existing containers will be updated during software installation to
support HP-UX Containers A.03.01. All containers must conform to the configuration
requirements described in 1.5.2 Configuration requirements before you can successfully start
the containers.
• HP-UX SRP A.02.02 SRPs can only be migrated to HP-UX Containers A.03.01 workload
containers.
1.6.2 Upgrade instructions for HP-UX SRP A.02.02
After installing HP-UX Containers A.03.01, the product will be disabled. You can migrate existing
HP-UX SRP A.02.02 containers as follows:
1. You must first enable HP-UX Containers using the srp_sys command. You can either use the
–enable or the –setup option to enable HP-UX Containers. The srp_sys –enable
command will automatically migrate all existing A.02.02 workload SRPs to A.03.01
workload containers. The srp_sys –setup command will provide you the option to select
which A.02.02 workload SRPs to migrate to A.03.01 workload containers.
Refer to the HP-UX Containers (SRP) A.03.01 Administrator’s Guide for more information on
the srp_sys command.
2. For any workload SRPs that have not been migrated, you can run the srp_migrate utility
to migrate any remaining workload SRPs:
# /opt/hpsrp/bin/util/srp_migrate
3. Verify that all containers have been successfully migrated and are recognized by the system:
# srp –status
The migrated workload containers will be in the stopped state by default.
4. HP-UX Containers A.03.01 delivers new default configuration in the following
configuration files:
/etc/opt/hpsrp/cmpt/base.srp_incl
/etc/opt/hpsrp/templates/srpdefaults.cst
If you modified these two configuration files in an earlier release, you must manually
incorporate your prior changes into the A.03.01 version of these two files. If you modified
these files before the upgrade, they will be renamed to base.srp_incl.old and
srpdefaults.cst.old.
1.6.3 Upgrade instructions for HP-UX Containers A.03.00
After installing HP-UX Containers A.03.01, the system will reboot. During system startup, the Adding
SRPs to kernel configuration step may fail. If any containers are detected that do not
conform to the file system configuration requirements (1.5.2 Configuration requirements), the
/etc/rc.log file will capture errors reported from the /sbin/rc1.d/S331srp_init script, as
follows:
Unsupported file system configuration
