sysconfig/network/ifcfg*(or /etc/sysconfig/ network-scripts/ifcfg*)
and bonding files.
Verify that the network configurations are the same prior to the upgrade or the new installation.
Check the current interface eth0 has the same corresponding Mac address before and after.
4. Verify that all disks and their filesystems are the same prior to this OS upgrade or new
installation.
Check and compare with the disk layout collected before the upgrade. Use command vgscan
to make sure the node with new OS sees all its previously configured LVM disks.
5. Install the new Serviceguard release from the CD.
The examples that follow show only the Serviceguard rpm. Generally you also need to install:
• cmsnmpd
• sgproviders
• sgmgrpi (B03.31.00). For example, (Serviceguard rpm for Red Hat 5
x86_64):rpm -i
RedHat5/Serviceguard/x86_64/serviceguard-A.11.20.00-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm
For Serviceguard upgrade only, you can choose to install with one of the following options:
For example,
Serviceguard rpm for Red Hat 5 x86_64:
• For a node not configured into a cluster:
rpm -i --force
RedHat5/Serviceguard/x86_64/serviceguard-A.11.20.00-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm
• For a node already configured into a cluster:
rpm -U --replacefiles
RedHat5/Serviceguard/x86_64/serviceguard-A.11.20.00-0.rhel5.x86_64.rpm
A message such as the following is expected as a response to the command and does
not indicate an error since this node is already configured into a cluster:
Cannot uninstall Serviceguard while a cluster is configured error:
%preun(serviceguard-<old_version> scriptlet failed, exit status
1

After the Serviceguard upgrade, you can remove the previous rpm version. First use rpm -q
to show any Serviceguard rpm installed:
Example:
To query any Serviceguard rpm installed:
rpm -q serviceguard
To remove (erase) an old version of Serviceguard from the RPM database:
rpm -e --noscripts serviceguard-A.11.19.03-0
If you have only upgraded the kernel to a new errata then the deadman must be reinstalled.
To reinstall the deadman:
The deadman driver sources and associated files are located at $SGROOT/drivers.
