Table 13 Upgrade Checklist (continued)
Done?ReferenceTask Description
1. Prior to upgrading to J06.13 or a later J-series RVU,
use the CLICVAL tool to verify the core license file is valid.
8. If you are migrating from a
pre-J06.13 RVU to NB54000c,
For more information on using CLICVAL, refer to the TACLNB54000c-cg, NB56000c, or
Reference Manual and NonStop BladeSystem Planning
Guide.
NB56000c-cg, use the CLICVAL tool
to verify your license file.
Note: If CLICVAL cannot verify your core license file, you
must order a new one as described in the NonStop
BladeSystem Planning Guide.
2. After upgrading to J06.13 or a later RVU for
NB54000c or NB54000c-cg or to J06.16 or later for
NB56000c or NB56000c-cg, HP recommends that you
use the OSM Read Core License action to verify that the
core license is valid. Later in this checklist, you will be
reminded to perform this action.
IMPORTANT: If your core license file is invalid or missing,
you must correct this problem. For more information, refer
to the NonStop BladeSystem Planning Guide.
