Upgrading a Cell Environment

To upgrade a cell environment:

1. Make sure the entire cell is up and running. Upgrading is possible only if the cell is healthy.
2. Upgrade the cell manager.
3. When the cell manager upgrade is complete, the cell manager Web Console will be unavailable. Do not start the services manually on the cell manager unless requested explicitly.
4. Upgrade all cell members (can be done in parallel).
5. When the cell members upgrade is complete, start the cell manager services using app-util.sh ("Start All").

Running the Data Migration Tool

1. Make sure DPOD is up and running. The data migration tool is designed to work while DPOD is up and running, so users may sign in to DPOD and use it while the data migration tool is upgrading the data in the background.

2. Since the tool is a long-running process, it is recommended to run it in a "no hang-up" mode, which will cause the process to continue running even after the SSH session is closed. In this mode, the console output is written to nohup.log file in the local directory. Use the following command to run the tool and inspect the console output:

   Code Block
   language bash theme RDark
   nohup /installs/data-migration-tool/data-migration-tool.sh & tail -f nohup.out

   
   

3. The data migration process may take anywhere between a few minutes and a few days, depending on the amount of data, the server load and the server hardware. A rough estimation of the time left will be presented while the process is running.
4. Please review the data migration tool log file (/installs/logs/store_data_migration.log) if the console displays any error message.
