Version 1.0.18.1 release notes (August 2019)
Version 1.0.18.1 includes a number of fixes to the upgrade procedure.
Note: If you already upgraded to version 1.0.18.0, there is no need to install 1.0.18.1 as there is
no value added. Version 1.0.18.1 improves the upgrade process itself, but does not contain any new
features.
Resolved issues
- A number of issues that were related to the upgrade procedure were fixed:
- Fixed the issue with NodeOS upgrade fail due an rpm package installed by DSX.
- To avoid breaking GPFS during upgrade, run a pre-check mmccr check command on
all nodes to verify that GPFS is in a consistent state before running an upgrade. The command should
return the following
output:
To resolve the issue, run the following command on the node where the command mmccr check failed:[root@node0101 ~]# mmccr check mmccr check results:CCR Client initialization succeed Check CCR authorized key file succeed Check CCR cached directory and file succeed Check both CCR paxos files succeedT
Then, run mmccr check again to confirm that the CCR error is resolved.mmchcluster --ccr-disable mmsdrrestore mmchcluster --ccr-enable
- Fixed the issue with ROW systems: When upgrading row organized system, apinit was changing dashDB.env file parameters from row to column parameters, and the environments variable was changed.
- Fixed the issue with NodeOS upgrade resulting in the following
error:
NodeosUpgrader.install : nodeos:NodeosUpgrader.install:Fatal Problem: The Node OS rpm is not correctly installed/configured. This error requires manual intervention to resolve. Please contact IBM Support.
Known issues
- EMC NetWorker backup/restore fails with SQL2062N. An error occurred while accessing the
/usr/lib/libnsrdb2.so
media. Reason code is 0. This is occurring due to two parameters that are added in the nmda_db2.cfg file on each node.WORKAROUND:- As the
root
user, edit the /nsr/apps/config/nmda_db2.cfg file and comment out theNSR_LIBNSRDB2_DEBUG_LEVEL=9
andNSR_DEBUG_LEVEL=9
parameters. This must be done on every node in the container. - Rerun backup/restore.
