--cws-package cws-
firmware-tar-file
Full path to Cluster Witness Server package on the management server.
NOTE: Not required if upgrading to an official product release.
--force
Ignore manifest checking of supported upgrades.
--skip-cws-upgrade
Skips the upgrade of the Cluster Witness Server and proceeds with the rest of the NDU.
--skip-be-switch-
check
Skips the NDU pre-check for unhealthy back-end switches.
--skip-cluster-
status-check
Skips the NDU pre-check for cluster problems (missing directors, suspended exports, inter-
cluster link failure, and so on).
--skip-confirmations
Skips any user confirmations normally required before proceeding when there are NDU pre-
check warnings.
--skip-distributed-
device-settings-check
Skips the NDU pre-check for distributed device settings (auto-resume set to true).
--skip-fe-switch-
check
Skips the NDU pre-check for unhealthy front-end switches.
--skip-group-be-
checks
Skips all NDU pre-checks related to back-end validation. This includes pre-checks for system
configuration validation and unreachable storage volumes.
--skip-group-config-
checks
Skips all NDU pre-checks related to system configuration. This includes the system
configuration validation and director commission pre-checks.
--skip-group-fe-
checks
Skips all NDU pre-checks related to front-end validation. This includes the unhealthy storage
views and storage view configuration pre-checks.
--skip-group-health-
checks
Skips all NDU pre-checks related to system health validation. This includes the system
configuration validation, unhealthy virtual volumes, cluster status, and the inter-cluster
communications connectivity pre-checks.
--skip-meta-volume-
backup-check
Skips the check to verify that backups for the meta-data volumes at all clusters have been
configured.
--skip-meta-volume-
redundancy-check
Skips the NDU pre-check for verifying the meta-volume redundancy.
----skip-storage-
volumes-check
Skip the NDU pre-check for unreachable storage volumes.
--skip-sysconfig-
check
Skips the system configuration validation NDU pre-check and proceed with NDU even if there
are errors with cache replication, logging volume setup, back-end connectivity, and metadata
volume health.
--skip-view-config-
check
Skips the NDU pre-check for storage view configuration (front-end high availability). This
option is required to pass the NDU pre-checks when operating a minimum configuration. For
minimum configurations, front-end high-availability pre-checks must be performed manually.
--skip-view-health-
check
Skips the NDU pre-check for unhealthy storage views.
--skip-virtual-
volumes-check
Skips the NDU pre-check for unhealthy virtual volumes.
--skip-wan-com-check
Skips the inter-cluster communications connectivity NDU pre-check and proceed with NDU
even if there are errors specifically related to inter-cluster communications connectivity.
--skip-local-com-
check
Skips the intra-cluster communications connectivity NDU pre-check and proceed with NDU
even if there are errors specifically related to intra-cluster communications.
