After the configuration node is successfully
rebooted and updated, verify the update and return the system to its
original state by following these steps.
- Confirm the update:
- Enter the lsupdate command to determine
if the software update
requires a further completion step.
- If the lsupdate command shows that
the status is system_completion_required,
enter svctask applysoftware -complete in the command-line
interface.
Each canister is
restarted in order. The update process takes approximately 30 minutes
with 5 minutes per node. During the confirmation step, the system
is operational but no other updates can be started until the current
update is confirmed.
- Verify that the system is running at the correct version and that no other errors in the system
must be resolved.
- Verify that all the nodes are online.
- Verify that all volumes are online.
In the management GUI, select .
- Verify that all managed disks (MDisks) are online.
In the management GUI, select .
- Restart any services, advanced functions, or scripts that
were stopped before the update.
You completed the manual update.
Note: When you update your system software to 8.1.0 from
a previous version on a system where you have already installed more
than 64 GB of RAM, all nodes return from the update with an error
code of 841. Version 8.1.0 allocates memory in a different way than
previous versions, so the RAM must be "accepted" again. To resolve
the error, complete the following steps:
- On a single node, run the svctask chnodehw command.
Do not run the command on more than one node at a time.
- Wait for the node to restart and return without the error.
- Wait an additional 30 minutes for multipath drives to recover
on the host.
- Repeat this process for each node individually until you clear
the error on all nodes.
