Upgrading an existing HAFM appliance from HAFM 8.x to 8.8
This section includes procedures to upgrade HAFM 8.x to HAFM 8.8 on the 1U-high rack mount
HAFM appliance.
Before upgrading
Before beginning the upgrade procedure, complete the following tasks:
• Read the ”Upgrade considerations” on page 11.
• Fully back up HAFM data on your HAFM appliance. Copy the following directories to your
configured backup drive, where Install_Home is the directory where the application is installed:
• Install_Home\Client
• Install_Home\Server
• Install_Home\Backup
• Install_Home\Call Home
• Make sure that you obtain the serial number (on the software CD jewel case) and your license
key for your installation. See ”Product license and feature keys” on page 21 for more
information.
• If you use Call Home through dial-out, double-click the Call Home Setup icon on the Windows
desktop of the HAFM appliance, and copy phone numbers and other pertinent details from the
Network and Dial-up Connections - CallHome dialog box Properties tab so that you can use
them to configure the Call Home feature in the new release. For details, see the
HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric Manager user guide.
• To avoid errors, close all instances of the application before upgrading. Shut down HAFM on the
appliance and HAFM clients on all remote workstations.
• Stop HAFM services using the following steps:
a. Click Start > Programs > HP StorageWorks ha-fabric manager 8.x > Stop Services.
A DOS window is displayed with messages of services being shut down.
b. Press any key to close the window.
