Using Database from a Previous Version
If the customer has worked before with the older version of the Scalar DLC software, an upgrade must be
performed in order to import the old database content to the new version. Use
Table 16
to select the correct
upgrade method.
CAUTION
To prevent Cluster failure:
• Always perform the work on the active mode.
• Use the Cluster Administrator tool (on any node) to control the active
node and transfer ownership to other node, if necessary.
• Reboot changes the nodes automatically. To continue the Scalar DLC
installation after a required reboot, do not log onto the original node until
ownership is returned to it through manual intervention from the Cluster
Administrator on other node.
• When making or removing SDLC Cluster configuration, make certain both
nodes are up and running, and that Scalar DLC is stopped on both
nodes.
• Use the correct Scalar DLC Cluster Configuration utility.
If Scalar DLC 2.5 is installed, use SDLC_ClusterConfig from the Scalar DLC
2.5 CD; make certain it is not from the 2.7 CD.
Note
The
Advanced Upgrade
can be used always, however sometimes it is possible to use
the
Simple Upgrade
method.
