Post-upgrade considerations

Virtual IP issues

Occasionally, after an upgrade, the virtual IP might become unreachable. You can confirm if the virtual IP is reachable by a ping test. This issue might occur due to an IP conflict or high load during the upgrade.

Run the command crm_resource -r virtualip --restart after the upgrade to reactivate the virtual IP.

Troubleshooting issues

Upgrade Interruption

If the upgrade is interrupted at any point for various reasons, you can always retrigger the upgrade procedure by running the same powervc-opsmgr update command again.

Deployment failures

If there are any deployment failures after PowerVC update, restart PowerVC services and retry the deploy operation using the powervc-services restart command.

Network disconnection

If network disconnections are expected during the upgrade, use the nohup powervc-opsmgr update -c <cluster_name> -n <node_ip/hostname> & command to ensure the upgrade continues even if the connection is lost.
