7.8.4 Running AUTOGEN
Next, the procedure displays the following message and runs AUTOGEN:
Running AUTOGEN to compute the new SYSTEM parameters ...
If AUTOGEN encounters any problems, it displays the following message:
%AUTOGEN-W-REPORT, Warnings were detected by AUTOGEN. Please review the
information given in the file SYS$SYSTEM:AGEN$PARAMS.REPORT.
If AUTOGEN displays this message, be sure to check AGEN$PARAMS.REPORT
as one of your postupgrade tasks. This task is described in Section 8.4.
7.8.5 Shutting Down the System
After AUTOGEN finishes, the procedure displays a sequence of shutdown
messages that begins like this:
The system is shutting down to allow the system to boot with the
generated site-specific parameters and installed images.
The system will automatically reboot after the shutdown and the
upgrade will be complete.
SHUTDOWN -- Perform an Orderly System Shutdown
on node VXPCSI
.
.
.
The system shuts down and will reboot automatically if your system is set up to
do so. If the system does not reboot automatically, reboot it manually. For more
information about booting your system, refer to the upgrade and installation
supplement for your VAX computer.
7.8.6 Booting Voting Nodes
If you are upgrading a standalone system, go to the next step.
If you are upgrading an OpenVMS Cluster system, the system might hang when
you try to reboot the upgraded system disk. This is because the total cluster
value is less than the cluster quorum value. To remedy this situation, boot
voting members that run from the system disk you just upgraded. (For more
information about quorum values and voting members, refer to OpenVMS Cluster
Systems.) All nodes that are booted at this time will run AUTOGEN and reboot.
7.8.7 Executing STARTUP
After the system reboots, the procedure displays the following message:
********************************** *******************************
OpenVMS VAX V7.3
You have SUCCESSFULLY installed the OpenVMS VAX Operating System.
The system is now executing the STARTUP procedure. Please
wait for the completion of STARTUP before logging in to the
system.
