3. If quotas are configured on PSFS filesystems, back up the quota information.
See PSFS filesystems, page 18.
4. Stop Matrix Server on the server:
# /etc/init.d/pmxs stop
5. Back up the cluster configuration on the server. See Back up the cluster
configuration, page 15. If you are using the HP Samba deployment kit, also
save the Samba configuration files (see Samba configuration, page 16).
6. Perform a fresh installation of the operating system. Oracle prerequisites can
also be installed at this time. See Appendix A, page 93.
7. Install the kernels RPM corresponding to your OS. This RPM contains the HP
Scalable NAS binary, source, and debug kernels.
# rpm -i pmxs-<os>-kernels-3.7.0-<xxxx>.<arch>.rpm
The installation creates the directory structure /opt/polyserve/lib/kernels.
RPMs for the binary, source, and debug kernels are in the kernels directory.
8. Install the appropriate HP Scalable NAS kernel. To install the binary kernel, run
the following command:
# rpm -ihv kernel-HPPS-<kernel-version>.370.<xxxx>.x86_64.rpm
After installing the RPM, verify the bootloader. Check the file /boot/grub/
menu.lst and verify that the default is set to the HP binary kernel.
NOTE:
If you need to compile third-party kernel modules or build a custom kernel,
see Appendix B, page 99.
9. Install HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software 3.7.0 from the product CD or the
location where you have downloaded the software.
# rpm -i <mountpoint>/pmxs-3.7.0-<xxxx>.<arch>.rpm
10. Run the mxcheck utility, which verifies that the server’s configuration meets the
requirements for running HP Scalable NAS. Output from the utility appears on
the screen and is also written to the /var/opt/hpcfs/mxcheck or /var/
opt/polyserve/mxcheck directory. HP recommends that you fix any problems
identified by mxcheck before you continue the upgrade.
# /opt/hpcfs/bin/mxcheck -l -p -t - install
