During upgrade, the installation wizard performs necessary updates to the server
code, as shown in Figure 22-5.
Figure 22-5 Updating the server instance: applying the patch level
Following a successful server upgrade you may patch the Tivoli Storage
Manager Device Drivers, if used. However, this requires another reboot of the
machine.
Again, after the server upgrade, you should follow the recommendations
described in 22.2.4, "Testing new updates" on page 699. That essentially means
starting the server, either in the foreground or the background; observing the
server console output for any unusual messages and errors; and redefining your
paths if devices have changed during device drivers update. Last but not least,
you should test that your drives can read and write data by moving data from one
volume to another.
If your verification tests do not reveal any problems, you may enable your server
for production by following the steps given in 22.2.5, "Enabling production mode"
on page 700.
Finally, you should back up your storage pools and database and create a new
disaster recovery plan file. Refer to the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows
Administrator's Guide, GC32-0782, for more information.
