Upgrading the Sybase toolkit
IMPORTANT: The cmupgrade command is a new tool introduced in HP Serviceguard for Linux
A.12.00.00 which helps you upgrade HP Serviceguard and its components such as Serviceguard
Manager, Toolkits, Extended Distance Cluster, etc. This command can be used to perform online
or offline upgrade of HP Serviceguard across major versions starting from A.11.20.00 and later.
It is recommended to use this command to upgrade the Sybase toolkit. For more information on
this command see Managing HP Serviceguard A.12.00.00 for Linux at http://www.hp.com/go/
linux-serviceguard-docs.
To follow the usual method to upgrade the Sybase toolkit, run following command:
For RHEL:
rpm -Uvh --nopostun
serviceguard-sybase-toolkit-A.12.00.00-00.redhat.noarch.rpm
For SLES:
rpm -Uvh --nopostun
serviceguard-sybase-toolkit-A.12.00.00-00.sles.noarch.rpm
Rolling Upgrade
The toolkit package nodes in a cluster can be upgraded with the new toolkit, on one node at a
time. Follow the instructions below to do so:
1. Move the running Sybase toolkit packages from the node that is being upgraded to another
package node.
2. Upgrade the Sybase toolkit using the following command:
rpm -Uvh --nopostun
serviceguard-sybase-toolkit<version_number>.<OS_distro>.noarch.rpm
3. Verify the installation, using the following command:
rpm -q serviceguard-sybase-toolkit
The system displays the following output:
serviceguard-sybase-toolkit-<version number>
4. Repeat the above steps on all the other package nodes in the cluster.
