ProcedureSPARC: How to Upgrade Sun Cluster Module Software for Sun Management Center

Perform the following steps to upgrade Sun Cluster module software on the Sun Management Center server machine and console machine.


Note –

To upgrade the Sun Management Center software itself, do not perform this procedure. Instead, go to SPARC: How to Upgrade Sun Management Center Software to upgrade the Sun Management Center software and the Sun Cluster module.


Before You Begin

Have available the Sun Java Availability Suite DVD-ROM for the SPARC platform or the path to the DVD-ROM image.

  1. As superuser, remove the existing Sun Cluster module packages from each machine.

    Use the pkgrm(1M) command to remove all Sun Cluster module packages from all locations that are listed in the following table.

    Location 

    Module Package to Remove 

    Sun Management Center console machine 

    SUNWscscn

    Sun Management Center server machine 

    SUNWscssv, SUNWscshl


    machine# pkgrm module-package
    

    Note –

    Sun Cluster module software on the cluster nodes was already upgraded during the cluster-framework upgrade.


  2. As superuser, reinstall Sun Cluster module packages on each machine.

    1. Insert the Sun Java Availability Suite DVD-ROM for the SPARC platform into the DVD-ROM drive of the machine.

    2. Change to the Solaris_sparc/Product/sun_cluster/Solaris_ver/Packages/ directory, where ver is 9 for Solaris 9 or 10 for Solaris 10.


      machine# cd Solaris_sparc/Product/sun_cluster/Solaris_ver/Packages/
      
    3. Install the SUNWscssv package on the server machine.

      Note that you do not upgrade to a new SUNWscscn package on the console machine or a new SUNWscshl package on the server machine.


      machine# pkgadd -d . SUNWscssv
      
    4. Unload the Sun Java Availability Suite DVD-ROM from the DVD-ROM drive.

      1. To ensure that the DVD-ROM is not being used, change to a directory that does not reside on the DVD-ROM.

      2. Eject the DVD-ROM.


        machine# eject cdrom
