HP StorageWorks Clustered Gateway (software-only) 3.6.0 Windows Storage Server Edition Upgrade Guide (433702-002, January 2008)

Chapter 4: Non-Rolling Upgrades 27
24. On each server in group B, upgrade or reinstall the operating system
and/or service pack if necessary.
25. If you will be adding third-party MPIO software to the cluster, install
it on each server in group B according to the product documentation.
26. On each server in group B, upgrade HBA drivers if necessary.
27. If necessary, reboot the servers in group B. (You will need to reboot the
servers if this step is required by an operating system upgrade or if
you installed a new HBA driver in step 29.)
28. If you upgraded or reinstalled the operating system on the servers in
group B, run the HP mxcheck utility on the servers. This utility
verifies that the server’s configuration meets the requirements for
running HP Clustered File System.
To run mxcheck, insert the HP Clustered File System CD into the CD
drive or go to the directory where you downloaded the product and
then double-click the file mxcheck.exe. Output from the utility appears
on the screen and is also written to the Application Log section of the
Event Viewer. We recommend that you fix any problems identified by
mxcheck before you install HP Clustered File System.
29. On each server in group B, install HP Clustered File System 3.6.0.
Locate the file MxS_3.6.0.<xxxx>.msi on the product CD or in the
directory where you downloaded the software. Double-click on the
MxS_3.6.0.<xxxx>.msi file and run the Installation Wizard. To complete
the installation, reboot the servers as directed by the popup message.
30. On each server in group B, install FS Option for Windows. Insert the
product CD into the CD drive or go to the location where you have
downloaded the software. Then double-click the file
MxFS_3.6.0.<xxxx>.msi and run the Installation Wizard.
31. Start the HP CFS Management Console (if you are not already
connected) and connect to one of the servers in group A (a server that
has already been upgraded). Verify that all of the servers in group B
have rebooted and then export the configuration from the group A
server to the servers in group B.
