5.3 Upgrading Clusters from BCC 1.0 to BCC 1.1
SP2 for NetWare
Upgrading from BCC 1.0 to BCC 1.1 SP2 while leaving the BCC configuration in place is a two-
phased process where you must perform an intermediate upgrade to BCC 1.1 SP1 on NetWare 6.5
SP6 as follows:
Initial Configuration
NetWare 6.5 SP5
BCC 1.0
Identity Manager 2.x
You must perform the upgrade sequence on every node in each peer cluster that is part of your
existing business continuity cluster.
IMPORTANT: Before you begin, review
NetWare," on page
During a BCC upgrade, Business Continuity Clustering 1.0 clusters are unable to communicate with
Business Continuity Clustering 1.1 clusters. This condition exists temporarily until the upgrade has
been completed. If an actual disaster were to occur during the upgrade, a Business Continuity
Clustering 1.0 cluster can be failed over to a Business Continuity Clustering 1.1 cluster.

5.3.1 Upgrading the BCC Cluster from 1.0 to 1.1 SP1
Perform a rolling cluster upgrade for each peer cluster from BCC 1.0 to BCC 1.1 SP1 to achieve the
intermediate configuration as follows:
Initial Configuration
NetWare 6.5 SP5
BCC 1.0
Identity Manager 2.x
iManager 2.5 or 2.6
1 Create a worksheet for the Identity Manager driver configuration for each peer cluster where
you note the ports, landing zones, BCC drivers and driver sets, and certificates that are
currently in use.
You can use this information later in
2 Stop the Identity Manager (formerly DirXML) drivers from running on the Identity Manager
node of every peer cluster in the business continuity cluster.
