• Copies the new Performance Index Database.
• Recomputes the pre-scaled data.
• Restarts the Capacity Advisor data collection service.
Recomputing can take several hours to run, depending on the number of systems and the amount
of collected data. The text output for capupgrade provides an estimate of the time.
The example below shows capupgrade being run on a CMS with 20 servers.
C:\Program Files\HP\Virtual Server Environment\bin>capupgrade
==> For more information, please refer to
"C:\Program Files\HP\Virtual Server Environment\logs\capupgrade.log"
The Performance Index upgrade can take up to 3 minutes.
During this time, the HP Capacity Advisor Data Service
will be offline and data collection will be stopped.
The service will restart automatically at the end of the
capupgrade process.
