HP XC System Software Installation Guide Version 3.2.1

NOTE: Because the upgraderpms command output spans several pages, it is shown in
Appendix L (page 233). Return here when command processing is complete.
3. Unmount the DVD:
# cd
# umount /dev/cdrom
4. Eject the DVD from the drive.
5. Perform the following tasks to verify that the RPM upgrade process was successful.
a. Use the method of your choice to view the log file that contains the results of the Linux
and HP XC RPM upgrade process. This example uses the more command.
# more /var/log/yum_upgrade.log
Make sure the yum_upgrade.log file contains a “Dependencies Resolved” message
followed by a long list of RPMs that have been upgraded. If you do not see a list of
RPMs similar to the sample shown in Example 5-1, either the upgrade did not occur or
the upgrade is incomplete.

b. You must resolve all failed dependencies and RPM conflicts. See “Troubleshooting the
Software Upgrade Procedure” (page 167) for information about resolving upgrade errors.
If you cannot determine how to resolve these errors, contact your local HP XC support
center.
c. Verify that the new kernel has been installed. Enter the following command and look
for the new kernel:
# rpm -qa | grep kernel
6. Do not proceed to the next upgrade task until you resolve all RPM upgrade failures.
Proceed to “Task 5: Reboot the Head Node and Verify the New Kernel.”
5.6 Task 5: Reboot the Head Node and Verify the New Kernel
Follow this procedure to reboot the head node:
1. Reboot the head node, thus booting the new HP XC kernel:
# reboot
2. Verify that the system booted with the correct kernel. The HP XC System Software Release
Notes lists the final kernel version that was shipped in Version 3.2.1, and the results of the
uname command must match that kernel version.
# uname -a
