Upgrading the StoreAll OS Software
This upgrade method is supported only for upgrades from 6.1.5 or later. Upgrade the StoreAll OS
Software first on the server running the active Fusion Manager.
Complete the following steps:
1. Verify all servers are currently running Red Hat Linux 5.8 (kernel 2.6.18-308.24.1.el5):
uname -a
The version of Linux you are running is displayed, as shown in the following example:
Linux ib121-121 2.6.18-308.24.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Nov 21 11:42:14 EST
2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
2. Mount the ISO image on the server running the active Fusion Manager, as shown in the
following example:
mount -r -o loop /local/X9000-QRDVD-6.x.xxx.x86_64.iso.signed.iso
/media
3. Run the following upgrade script:
/media/ibrix/ibrixupgrade -f -s
The upgrade script installs Fusion Manager on the node.
4. To unmount the media:
a. Enter cd and then press Enter.
b. Unmount the media:
umount /media
5. Repeat the previous steps for each of the StoreAll servers running the passive Fusion Manager.
After the upgrade
Complete the following steps:
1. If your cluster nodes contain any 10Gb NICs, reboot these nodes to load the new driver. You
must do this step before you upgrade the server firmware, as requested later in this procedure.
2. Upgrade your firmware as described in “Upgrading firmware” (page 50).
3. On all servers in the cluster, enable the StoreAll daemons so they start at boot time.
a. Enable the ibrix_fusionmanager daemon.
chkconfig ibrix_fusionmanager on
b. Enable the ibrix_server daemon.
chkconfig ibrix_server on
4. Reboot each server so that the latest drivers can be installed:
shutdown -r now
