(c) Editing an Existing Configuration File
You can open and edit a configuration file that you have previously saved. After you edit the configuration file,
you can view the Upgrade Summary, and, if applicable, proceed with the upgrade as configured.
Important The disk number might be changed in the ft server when CPU/IO module is switched.
If the disk number differs from that assigned at creation of configuration file, the
disk for the upgrade might be recognized
incorrectly. Therefore, select a disk
appropriately on Disk Selection window before performing Active Upgrade.
To edit a configuration file
1. On the Configuration page, click Edit Configuration File.
2. Do one of the following to select the configuration file:
– Enter the full path name and file name of the configuration file in the Configuration File field of
the Locate Configuration File dialog box. (The .config file extension must be included).
–
Click Browse to specify the configuration file and click Open.
3. In the Locate Configuration File dialog box, click Load to open the configuration file.
When you select a configuration file, the file opens on the Network Settings page.
(d) Performing an Upgrade with No Configuration File
If the upgrade you want to perform does not require any special settings, you can proceed without a
configuration file.
Important When you execute the Active Upgrade f
or the first time, you need to use the
configuration file to update. You can upgrade without the configuration file only
when you have executed the Active Upgrade with the configuration file before.
For example, if you have only one system disk, and you just want to split the system briefly to test how an
upgrade would affect the operating system without committing the changes, you might not need a configuration
file.
To proceed without a configuration file
1. Open Configuration page.
2. Click No Configuration File on the Configuration page.
The Active Upgrade Console immediately displays the Active Upgrade page and runs a readiness test.
Tips
If your system meets the prerequisites for the Active Upgrade process, you can split the
system at this time.
