If you want to build your SDS volumes on top of AP, you should configure your
volumes using AP metadisk paths rather than physical paths. SDS recognizes and
properly installs existing AP metadevices with no special action required.
6. Reboot the server (if necessary).
If you just rebooted the server after configuring a volume manager, this step is
unnecessary.
Performing an Upgrade of AP
This section provides upgrade instructions for AP 2.2 on the Sun Enterprise 3x00,
4x00, 5x00, and 6x00 Servers. AP 2.0 and AP 2.1 are not supported under the
Solaris 7 11/99 operating environment. The upgrade process involves removing the
earlier version of AP, installing a set of core AP packages, and restoring your AP
configuration. Scripts are provided to simplify this process.
Installation of the packages on the enclosed CD-ROM requires approximately 2.7
megabytes of disk space. The following table lists the total size of the AP software by
file system:
Backing Up Your Server
Always back up an existing server before you upgrade any software. The safest
backup to perform is a level 0 dump (
ufsdump(1M)
) of the file systems connected to
the server being upgraded. If you do not have an established backup procedure, see
the System Administration Guide.
You do not need to back out installed patches before you perform the upgrade.
