Migration
Migration
If you migrate from the H06.04 RVU, HP strongly recommends that you install DP2
fallback SPR T9053H02^AQM before installing the H06.08 RVU, in case a fallback
becomes necessary. The DP2 fallback SPR is included on H06.05 and later SUTs.
Fallback
To fall back, you must install the previous SPRs for the OSS products and for DP2. In
addition, in either of these cases, you must run fsck on the fileset to downgrade the
fileset to Version 2:
•
If the fsck utility has been run on a fileset to upgrade to Version 3 filesets
•
If the fileset was created on a system running an H06.08 or later H-series RVU
When the fileset is downgraded to Version 2, any optional ACLs associated with the
files in the fileset are lost.
Installing OSS Products Not Managed by
DSM/SCM
Use COPYOSS or PINSTALL or both to install products that are not managed by
DSM/SCM.
•
If any OSS files are managed by DSM/SCM, use PINSTALL on the remaining pax
archives. See the OSS Management and Operations Guide for a description of
PINSTALL use or the pinstall(1) reference page in the OSS Shell and Utilities
Reference Manual.
•
If no OSS files are managed by DSM/SCM, use COPYOSS for all of the OSS pax
archives in the ZOSSUTL subvolume. See the OSS Management and Operations
Guide for a description of COPYOSS use or the copyoss(8) reference page in
the OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual. Then use PINSTALL to install any
pax archives in other subvolumes. See the OSS Management and Operations
Guide for a description of PINSTALL use, or the pinstall(1) reference page in
the OSS Shell and Utilities Reference Manual.
See also the appropriate product’s softdoc for any pre- or post-installation instructions.
OSS General Alerts and Considerations
Also note these general OSS alerts and considerations:
•
Disk volumes that are accessed by the OSS environment, including the $SYSTEM
volume where the OSS Monitor’s configuration files are kept, must not be
configured for administration by the HP NonStop Storage Management Foundation
(SMF).
