• The system OS language is set to a different language
than the system locale language (for example, the OS
is set to Chinese and the system locale is set to

application involved that cannot tolerate an interruption in
service, then an upgrade requiring a double hop should
be scheduled during a time when the application can be
taken offline.
This error can display one of two similar error messages:Online Upgrades attempts fail, and one or more storage
systems may be in a state such that a subsequent attempt
at upgrading will fail.

running on this NSM. Canceling all
further installations.

information for 'KB-VSA08' failed. The
upgrade partition is currently in use.
Canceling all further installations.
When there is more than one storage system in a
problematic state, the storage systems will get reported
only one at a time. For example, if you have a 3 storage
system cluster and 2 of them have their partition in use,
the CMC will only report one of the two storage systems
as being in a bad state. Then, on the subsequent upgrade
attempt, the CMC will report the other storage system as
being in a bad state.
It is important to perform the following steps on all of the
storage systems that might be affected; otherwise the next
attempt will fail, putting storage systems that have just been
corrected back into a bad state.
On each storage system affected, close the CMC and then
re-open it. This is necessary; otherwise, the next attempt
will fail, putting storage systems that have just been
corrected back into a bad state
