Commit Version Update

This operation commits the IBM Storage Scale version that was updated for a deployed IBM Storage Scale instance.

About this task

This operation also migrates the existing file system to the new version such that only changes that are compatible with an earlier version are enabled. This operation does not complete successfully when updating the IBM Storage Scale client, if the IBM Storage Scale server that the client communicates with is not yet upgraded and committed to the new IBM Storage Scale version. The commit operation verifies that the IBM Storage Scale servers are already updated and committed before committing the client.

Procedure
