2.3.2.5.1 Upgrade health check using the checkup option

Use the following procedure to initiate an upgrade health check on an individual server or per server group basis.

Note:

The target ISO image file must be deployed before initiating a pre-upgrade health check. See Deploy an ISO File for more information. Additionally, a health check cannot be started on a server group or any individual servers in that group if another health check for that group is running. For example, a running network element based health check using the Checkup All option.
  1. Click Administration, and then Software Management, and then Upgrade.
  2. Select the appropriate server group tab that contains the target server(s).
  3. Optional: If you would like to selectively run a health check on individual server, highlight the server(s) from the listing.

    Note:

    To perform a health check on all servers in a server group, do not select any servers.
  4. Click Checkup.
  5. Select the appropriate Checkup Type using the options presented in the Health Check Settings pane.
  6. Depending on the checkup type, you might be required to select the appropriate ISO image file from the Upgrade ISO list. Table 2-43 lists the options.
