If you are using IVR non-NAT mode, migrate to IVR-NAT mode before you upgrade to NX-OS
Release 5.2(1). IVR non-NAT mode is deprecated in NX-OS Release 5.2(1).
Note
In dual SAN fabrics, IVR traffic can use one fabric while the other fabric is migrating. Only
IVR traffic is disrupted during the migration. Regular traffic within the VSAN is not
disrupted during the migration.
To migrate to IVR-NAT mode, follow these steps:
1.
Stop or divert all applications on servers that depend on IVR.
–
If CFS distribution is not enabled for IVR, then perform steps 2 through 4 on all switches where
IVR is enabled.
–
If CFS distribution is enabled for IVR, then enter the
ivr commit
command following step 2,
step 3, and step 4 to distribute the changes to other switches.
2.
Deactivate the IVR zone set by entering the
no ivr zoneset activate
command.
3.
Enable IVR NAT by entering the
ivr nat
command.
4.
Activate the IVR zone set by entering the
ivr zoneset activate
command.
5.
Start or re-establish all application that were stopped in step 1.
The network can now run in IVR-NAT mode.
General Upgrading Guidelines
Follow these general guidelines before performing a software upgrade:
•
Review the nondisruptive upgrade path to release 5.2(2) in
Table 11
.
•
Install and configure dual supervisor modules before the upgrade.
•
Issue the
show install all impact
upgrade-image
CLI command to determine if your upgrade will
be nondisruptive.
•
Be aware that some features impact whether an upgrade is disruptive or nondisruptive:
–
Fibre Channel Ports
:
Fibre Channel ports
can be nondisruptively upgraded without affecting
traffic on the ports. See
Table 11
for the nondisruptive upgrade path for all NX-OS and SAN-OS
releases.
