Description :
Veritas Cluster Server and Commands by Symantec (i686)
Build Stamp : Veritas-5.0-2008-07-16_02.01.00
4. Freeze all the service groups persistently.
# haconf -makerw
# hagrp -freeze <group> -persistent
5. Stop the cluster on all nodes. If the cluster is writable, you may
close the configuration before stopping the cluster.
# haconf -dump -makero
From one node, execute the following command.
# hastop -all
Verify that the cluster is stopped on all nodes
by running the ha command.
# hasys -state
On all nodes, make sure that both had & hashadow processes are stopped.
Also, stop the VCS CmdServer on all nodes.
Determine the PID of the CmdServer and enter:
# CmdServer -stop
6. Change directory to the patch location.
7. On each node in the cluster, install the patch that corresponds to the
version of the operating system running. We need to use -U and not -i
as it is rpm upgrade.:
# rpm -Uvh <patch.rpm>
For RHEL4, install VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_RHEL4.i686.rpm
For RHEL5, install VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_RHEL5.i686.rpm
For SLES9, install VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_SLES9.i586.rpm
For SLES10, install VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_SLES10.i586.rpm
8. After installation is complete, verify that the patch has been installed.
For example on each RHEL4 system, type:
# rpm -qa | grep VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_RHEL4
You will see output like,
VRTSvcs-5.0.30.01-MP3HF1_RHEL4
9. At this time, you can start cluster services on all cluster nodes.
On one node, please verify that VCS configuration is valid.
# hacf -verify config
If the configuration is valid, start VCS:
# hastart
On all other nodes, start VCS by issuing hastart once the
first node goes to LOCAL_BUILD or RUNNING state.
10. Unfreeze all the groups.
# haconf -makerw
# hagrp -unfreeze <group> -persistent
# haconf -dump -makero
