5.5 Upgrading Other Servers in the Zone (Appliance)

  1. If all the servers that were part of the Vertica cluster are already migrated, then migrate the remaining Appliance servers and continue with Step 5. For more information on migrating the server, see Appliance Migration. If all the servers that are part of the Vertica cluster, are yet to be migrated, then continue with Step 2.

  2. If the Appliance server that is to be migrated does not have the Vertica role enabled, then migrate the server and continue with Step 4. For more information on migrating the server, see Appliance Migration. If the Appliance server has the Vertica role enabled, then continue with Step 3.

  3. If the Appliance server to be migrated is part of the Vertica cluster:

    • This server is the last node in the cluster: You need to wait for the other servers in the cluster to complete migration. If Appliance migration on these servers is ongoing, then wait for the process to complete before migrating the last node. After other servers in which Vertica is enabled, are successfully migrated, then migrate the last node and continue with Step 4. For more information on migrating the server, see Appliance Migration.

    • This server is not the last node: Migrate the server and continue with Step 4. For more information on migrating the server, see Appliance Migration.

  4. After the last node in the Vertica cluster is upgraded, run the Configure action microfocus-zenworks-configure-c Start to restart the ZENworks services on all the Primary Servers that have been upgraded until now

  5. Continue with the upgrade of the remaining servers in the zone, if any
