Sun Cluster 2.2 Release Notes Addendum

Upgrade-Related Bugs

4215070 - The scinstall(1M) command does not upgrade the Sun Cluster HA for SAP package, SUNWscsap, during upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 from Sun Cluster 2.1. Work around the problem by replacing the SUNWscsap package manually during the upgrade, as described in the procedure "How to Upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 From Sun Cluster 2.0 or 2.1".

4218558 - The Sun Cluster HA for SAP data service is not registered correctly during upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 from HA 1.3. This prevents the data service from starting up correctly after the upgrade has been completed. Work around the problem by explicitly unregistering and then registering the data service by using the hareg(1M) command:


# hareg -n sap
# hareg -u sap
# hareg -s -r sap -h CI_logicalhost
# hareg -y sap

For the complete upgrade procedure, see "How to Upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 From HA 1.3".

4218574 - Upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 from HA 1.3 fails if patch 104996 (required for Solstice HA-DBMS for Oracle7) is installed on the pre-upgrade system. This occurs because patch 104996 depends upon patch 105008, which the scinstall(1M) command attempts to remove during the upgrade. Work around the problem by removing patch 104996 manually before using scinstall(1M) to upgrade from HA 1.3. See "How to Upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 From HA 1.3" for the complete upgrade procedure.

4218613 - During upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 from HA 1.3, instance configuration information for the HA-DBMS data services is not propagated to the new cluster. This prevents the database instances from starting when the new cluster is started. This bug affects the Sun Cluster HA for Oracle, Sun Cluster HA for Sybase, and Sun Cluster HA for Informix data services.

Work around the problem by manually recreating the database instance after completing the upgrade. Use the appropriate hadbms insert command (haoracle insert, hasybase insert, or hainformix insert) as described in the associated man pages, and in the appropriate data service chapters in the Sun Cluster 2.2 Software Installation Guide. For the complete upgrade procedures, see "How to Upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2 From HA 1.3".

After you recreate the database instances, start the instances by using the appropriate hadbms start command.

4218620 - During upgrade to Sun Cluster 2.2, existing instance configuration data for Sun Cluster HA for SAP is not propagated to 2.2. Therefore, the SAP instance fails to start when the cluster is started. Work around the problem by manually re-creating the Sun Cluster HA for SAP instance after completing the upgrade, by using the hadsconfig(1M) command to specify all instance parameters. See the revised upgrade procedures in "Upgrading to Sun Cluster 2.2". See also Section 10.6.1, "Configuration Parameters for Sun Cluster HA for SAP" in the Sun Cluster 2.2 Software Installation Guide, for a full description of the Sun Cluster HA for SAP parameters. New parameters exist that significantly impact the behavior of the data service.

4218823 - During the upgrade from HA 1.3 to Sun Cluster 2.2, only two of three required IP addresses are added to the /.rhosts file on each node. The address lost is the highly available IP address for the private interconnects. Utilities such as hadsconfig(1M) will not work without this entry. The user must manually add the required entries to the /.rhosts file. The procedure is documented on page 3-26 of the Sun Cluster 2.2 Software Installation Guide, and in the revised upgrade procedures in "Upgrading to Sun Cluster 2.2".

4219689 - Adding a data service immediately after upgrading to Sun Cluster 2.2 removes a required entry from the cdb file. Restore the correct entry to the cdb file by selecting "Remove Volume Manager" from the scinstall(1M) Change menu. Then select "Choose Volume Manager" from the same menu, and select the volume manager that you are using.
