If the head node was previously
configured as a NIS slave server, do not
merge the nis ports from the
iptables.proto.rpmsave file into
the iptables.proto file because the
nis_server service automatically opens
the necessary ports when it is configured
during cluster_config processing.
/etc/sysconfig/iptables.proto.rpmsave
/etc/my.cnf.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/updgi_exclude_file.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/chkconfig.map.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/base_exclude_file.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/*.conf.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/config/*.rpmsave
/opt/hptc/config/etc/*.rpmsave
4. Follow the same process to open and search the log files for customizations that are specific
to Linux configuration files.
Search the files for configuration files that have either an .rpmsave or an .rpmnew extension
appended to them. Perform this step only if you know you changed standard Linux
configuration files.
# grep -E ".rpmsave|.rpmnew" /var/log/yum_upgrade.log
Proceed to “Task 8: Configure the System and Propagate the Golden Image.”.
5.9 Task 8: Configure the System and Propagate the Golden Image
Follow this procedure to configure the upgraded system and propagate the new golden image
to all client nodes:
1. Back up the existing configuration and management database and migrate existing data to
the new release format:
# upgradesys
Command output is similar to the following:
The upgradesys utility performs all the necessary steps
to upgrade your cluster. This script should be run immediately
after you have upgraded the head node with the latest XC software
and any third party vendor rpms.
