Changing the First Node for Install and Upgrade

If the first node becomes inaccessible, you can force another node to be the first node for installation or upgrade.

During installation, if root.sh fails to complete on the first node, run the following command on another node using the -force option: 

root.sh -force -first

For upgrade:

rootupgrade.sh -force -first
