Hitachi High-performance NAS Platform
8. Restart the server.
9. Once the server has booted, verify that the links are up on the newly connected
10 GbE ports. You can use Web Manager to check the status of the links:
a. Log in.
b. From the Home page, select
Network Configuration
>
Link Aggregation
.
c. For each aggregation, the
Status
column should display "OK."
It might be necessary to make configuration changes to the 10 GbE switch for the
ports used to match the previous NIM 1060 configuration; for example, the use of
LACP or not, and so on.
Note:
If the server fails to boot, it might be that the NIM 1200 has been
supplied without an SSLoader. To make the server boot again, it will be
necessary to upload the SSLoader onto the new NIM 1200 using a serial
connection or Xmodem. Refer to the Hitachi High-performance NAS
Platform System Installation Guide for instructions on using SSLoader.
10. Repeat steps 5 through 9 for each server in turn.
11. Once all servers are upgraded from NIM 1060 to NIM 1200, connect to the SMU
via SSH. Once the connection is made, a menu appears. This menu lists all the
servers/clusters managed by the SMU. Select the cluster from the displayed
menu.
12. Enable the support user by entering the following command:
supportuser on
13. Upgrade the aggregation information on the cluster by entering the following
command:
agg-upgrade
Replacing an FSA Module with an FSX Module
Prerequisites
This procedure has the following prerequisites:
•
The High-performance NAS Platform/node that has the FSA module being replaced
must be running the latest released major version of the software (for example,
the latest version of SU4.x, 5.x, 6.x, and so on).
•
A laptop or other system is required to connect to the High-performance NAS
Platform serial console port and management network.
•
You must have a complete copy of the software package matching the version
currently installed on the FSA module to be removed.
•
A copy of the
ssc.exe
program. If
ssc.exe
will be run from a Windows system,
you must also have the associated
mingwm10.dll
file. Storing these files and the
software package files together in
C:\TEMP
is recommended.
•
Necessary serial (null modem) and network cables, and dongle(s).
