5.4 ISO Administration

ISO transfers to the target servers may require a significant amount of time depending on the number of systems and the speed of the network. Therefore, it is highly recommended that the ISO transfers to the target servers be completed before the first scheduled maintenance window.

Note:

Add the SDS ISO to the PMAC Software Repository may be performed at any time after ISO administration procedure has been completed.

1. Log in to the SDS NOAM GUI. Use the VIP address to access the primary SDS NOAM GUI as described in Access the OAM GUI Using the VIP (NOAM/SOAM).
2. In the Primary SDS NOAM VIP (GUI), connect to the SDS server. Expand Status & Manage click Files. Select the host name of the active primary SDS server from the list of tabs. Click Upload.

   2. Run this command on CLI:

      sudo sed -i '/if (array_key_exists("MateHostname", $serverData))/c\ if (is_array($serverData) && array_key_exists("MateHostname", $serverData))' /var/TKLC/appworks/validator/Sds/HaStatusValidator.php

   3. Run this command on CLI:

      sudo sed -i '310s/validate_cd/validate_cd_tmp/' /var/TKLC/appworks/services/FileManagement.php
