Migrating to Cloud services 1.1.3 from 1.1.2

This topic describes the procedure for upgrading to Cloud services 1.1.3 from 1.1.2.

Ensure the following before you start the upgrade the process:
  • Transparent cloud tiering service is stopped on all the server nodes by using the mmcloudgateway service stop command.
  • IBM Spectrum Scale™ is at release 4.2.3. Migration might fail if your IBM Spectrum Scale release is different.
  • No data migration or recall is in progress.
Perform the following steps:
  1. Copy the gpfs.tct.server-1.1.3.x86_64.rpm file to each of the nodes that is specified as Transparent cloud tiering server nodes.
  2. Run this command:
    rpm -Uvh gpfs.tct.server-1.1.3.x86_64.rpm
  3. To upgrade the client nodes, issue this command:
    rpm -Uvh gpfs.tct.client-1.1.3*.rpm
  4. To upgrade the Debian package, issue this command:
    sudo dpkg -i gpfs.tct.client-1.1.3*.deb
  5. Verify the version by using the mmcloudgateway service version command. The system displays output similar to this:
    Cluster minReleaseLevel:   4.2.2.0
