4. Perform this step only if you know you changed standard Linux configuration files. 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.
# grep -E ".rpmsave|.rpmnew" /var/log/yum_upgrade.log
5. Verify that the HP XC head node is running the correct kernel.
# uname -a
6. If HP SFS is used, verify that the HP XC head node can mount the HP SFS file system(s) .
# service sfs status
# mount -t lustre
7. Remove the /boot/grub/grub.conf entry from
/opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/updgi_exclude_file file. Undo this change after
the HP XC Golden Image is created.
Proceed to “Task 8: Configure the System and Propagate the Golden Image.”.

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.
