Performing The Upgrade; After The Upgrade - HP IBRIX X9720 System Administrator Manual

3. Verify that ssh shared keys have been set up. To do this, run the following command on the
node hosting the active instance of the agile Fusion Manager:
ssh <server_name>
Repeat this command for each node in the cluster and verify that you are not prompted for a
password at any time.
4. Ensure that no active tasks are running. Stop any active Remote Replication, data tiering, or
Rebalancer tasks running on the cluster. (Use ibrix_task -l to list active tasks.) When the
upgrade is complete, you can start the tasks again.
5. The 6.1 release requires that nodes hosting the agile management be registered on the cluster
network. Run the following command to verify that nodes hosting the agile Fusion Manager
have IP addresses on the cluster network:
ibrix_fm -f
If a node is configured on the user network, see
" (page 103)
6. On X9720 systems, delete the existing vendor storage:
ibrix_vs -d -n EXDS
The vendor storage will be registered automatically after the upgrade.

Performing the upgrade

The online upgrade is supported only from the X9000 6.0 to 6.1 release. Complete the following
steps:
1. Obtain the latest HP IBRIX 6.1 ISO image from the IBRIX X9000 software dropbox.
2. Mount the ISO image and copy the entire directory structure to the /root/ibrix directory
on the disk running the OS.
3. Change directory to /root/ibrix on the disk running the OS and then run chmod -R 777
on the entire directory structure.
4. Run the upgrade script and follow the on-screen directions:
./auto_online_ibrixupgrade
5. Upgrade Linux X9000 clients. See
6. If you received a new license from HP, install it as described in the "Licensing" chapter in this
guide.

After the upgrade

Complete these steps:
Start any Remote Replication, Rebalancer, or data tiering tasks that were stopped before the
upgrade.
If your cluster includes G6 servers, check the iLO2 firmware version. The firmware must be at
version 2.05 for HA to function properly. If your servers have an earlier version of the iLO2
firmware, download iLO2 version 2.05 using the following URL and copy the firmware update
to each G6 server. Follow the installation instructions noted in the URL. This issue does not
affect G7 servers.
