Perform this procedure on one node at a time. You will take the updated node out of the cluster while the remaining nodes continue to function as active cluster members.
Before You Begin
Perform the following tasks:
Ensure that the configuration meets requirements for update. See Updating to a New Oracle Solaris Cluster Version.
Have available the installation media, documentation, and updates for all the software products that you are updating, including the following software:
Oracle Solaris OS
Oracle Solaris Cluster
Applications that are managed by Oracle Solaris Cluster 4.4 data service agents
Any other third-party applications to update
For instructions about updating single or multiple packages, see How to Update the Software (Rolling Update).
phys-schost% cluster status
See the cluster(8CL) man page for more information.
Service interruption will be approximately the amount of time that your cluster normally takes to switch services to another node.
Failover zones refers to solaris brand zones that are configured with the HA for Oracle Solaris Zones data service.
# clresourcegroup suspend <failover-zone-resource-group-list> # clresourcegroup evacuate -n node-to-evacuate # cldevicegroup switch -n backup-node device-group device-group-list
Alternatively, you can use the clnode evacuate command to evacuate all resource groups and device groups from the node, then use the clresourcegroup switch command to move back to the node you will update only those resource groups that are used by a failover zone. See the clresourcegroup(8CL) and clnode(8CL) man pages for more information.
For more information about failover zones, see Updating Solaris Branded Failover Zones.
