Upgrading the Standalone Statistics Collection Manager

This chapter provides step-by-step procedures to upgrade to a Standalone Stats Collector on either a Solaris 9 or a Solaris 8 platform.

Statistics Collection Manager Standalone (SCMSA) permits the statistics standalone machines to consist of one of the following configurations.

•A standalone Statistics Manager and Statistics Collector (SSM)

•A standalone Statistics Collector (SSC).

Note The standalone Parser configuration in Release 11 and Release 10.5 is not permitted in Release 15.1.50

The following upgrade paths are supported.

•Release 12 Standalone Statistics Collector (Solaris 2.8) to SSC (Solaris 2.8)

•Release 12 Standalone Statistics Collector (Solaris 2.8) to SSC (Solaris 2.9)

•Release 15 Standalone Statistics Collector (Solaris 2.8) to SSC (Solaris 2.8)

•Release 15 Standalone Statistics Collector (Solaris 2.8) to SSC (Solaris 2.9)

Note This release of SCMSA is supported on either the Solaris 8 platform or the Solaris 9 platform.

If the user upgrades from a version earlier than SCMSA 12, SCMSA must first be upgraded to either SCMSA 12 or 15 and then upgrade to the current SCMSA release.

As a first step, the user must decide which statistics databases, if any, are to be preserved throughout the upgrade procedure. Once this has been decided, follow the procedure for preserving databases in the next section.

Warning IF DATABASES ARE TO BE PRESERVED, THEY MUST BE SAVED BEFORE ANY OTHER UPGRADE PROCEDURES ARE PERFORMED.

Preserving Databases

The end result of an upgrade is always a machine with a Standalone Statistics Collector or a Standalone Statistics Manager configuration. The precise steps that are required to perform the upgrade depend upon the starting configuration. This could be one of several different configurations as described in the previous paragraph and which databases are to be preserved.

Preserving scmdb Data

An scmdb database will exist in the starting configuration.

If you are upgrading from 12 or 15 and remaining on a Solaris 8 platform, this database is automatically preserved.

However, if you are upgrading from a Solaris 8 platform to a Solaris 9 platform, the database will be destroyed when Solaris is upgraded. In this case, if the database needs to be preserved, the database must be saved to a safe place as a first step, it is then restored as part of the upgrade procedure. To save the database, perform the following procedure.

Note The following procedure is required only when upgrading from a Solaris 8 platform to Solaris 9.

This procedure must be performed before attempting to upgrade Solaris or SCMSA.

Step 1 Log in on the starting Solaris 8 statistics collection machine as user svplus.

Step 2 Stop the CWM core processes if not already stopped

Step 3 Create a directory to hold the saved Informix database.
host% mkdir <save_database_directory>

Caution Do not create the directory under the /usr/user directory. The directory should be on a separate NFS-mounted disk. If an NFS-mounted disk is not available, the directory can be on one of the CWM server disks, but the exported files must be FTPd to another system before Solaris is installed

Step 4 Change its permissions of the directory:
host% chmod 777 <save_database_directory>

Step 5 Change the current directory to the <save_database_directory> directory:
host% cd <save_database_directory>

Step 6 Verify enough disk space is available for the Informix OnLine database:
host% onstat -d

Step 7 Execute the dbexport command:
host% dbexport -o <save_database_directory> <database_name>

Use scmdb as the database_name.

Step 8 Copy the scmsa.version file (located in the /usr/users/svplus/etc directory) and the process.conf file 9 (located in the /usr/users/svplus/config directory) to the same <save_database_directory> directory.

Step 9 Copy any configuration files (such as network.conf) that should be saved to the same <save_database_directory> directory.

If the <save_database_directory> directory is on a separate NFS mounted disk, no further steps are necessary.

If the <save_database_directory> directory is on the CWM machine, it must be transferred to an external location. For example, saved to a tape using the tar cvf /dev/rmt/0 command or FTPd to another machine.

The scmdb database and other saved files are now saved to a safe location.

Note In SCMSA Release 15.1.50, an exported database can only be imported back to the same machine from which it was exported. It cannot be imported from a different host machine.

Preserving statsdb Data

A statsdb database will exist on the machine to be upgraded if that machine contains a parser module. The statsdb data can be preserved by executing a script (statsdbunload.csh) that is included on the SCMSA CD. This script creates a directory that contains the statsdb data. The user then stores the directory in a specified safe place.

If the upgraded machine is to be configured as an SSM, the database is restored to that machine during the upgrade procedure.

If the upgraded machine is to be configured as an SSC it does not include the statsdb database. Therefore, later, when the CWM server upgrade process takes place, the statsdb database is located as part of the upgrade procedure and incorporated into the CWM server's database.

To save the database, perform the following procedure.

Note The following procedure is required only when upgrading from a configuration that includes the Parser.

This procedure needs to be coordinated with the upgrade of the CWM server and any other standalone statistics collection workstations.

Step 1 If the upgrade of the CWM server involves the upgrading of Solaris, check that the CWM databases and files have been exported and saved to a safe place and note the path to that safe place. Check also that, after saving the CWM data, the upgrade to Solaris 9 on the CWM server has been performed.

Step 2 On the Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 SCMSA workstation, log in as user root.

Step 3 Insert the Cisco Multiservice Center Stand Alone Statistics Collection Manager CD-ROM into the CDROM drive.

Step 4 Enter the following commands:
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0
# ls 
Step 5 Check for the script file statsdbunload.csh.

Step 6 Begin the execution of the script by entering the following command:
# ./statsdbunload.csh
This script saves the statsdb data in a newly created directory called statsdbupload that is located in /usr/users/svplus/tmp.

Step 7 If the statsdb is being preserved in multiple standalone machines all of which are connected to the same CWM server, rename the directories in the different machines so that each name is unique. Use the names statsdbunload, statsdbunload1, statsdbunload2, and so on.

Step 8 If upgrading from a Solaris 8 platform to Solaris 9, ftp the directory to the same place that contains the exported databases from the CWM server machine.

If upgrading from a Solaris 8 platform and staying on Solaris 8, ftp the statsdbupload(x) directory to usr/users/svplus/tmp/statsdbupload in the CWM server.

The upgrade of the SCMSA workstation can now be performed.

Upgrading SCMSA

This section provides step-by-step procedures to upgrade your Statistics Collection Manager Stand Alone (SCMSA) server workstation.

To upgrade SCMSA without a disruption of the network management functions, the existing CWM system should be configured with multiple CWM gateways. The CWM gateways and the SCMSA stations are then upgraded one at a time thus preserving network management throughout the upgrade process. This process is described in detail later in this chapter.

Upgrading from a Solaris 8 Platform

The upgrade process for a SCMSA server from a Solaris 8 platform consists of the following five steps.

Step 1 If required, save the existing scmdb database, configuration files, and any other files that need to be preserved to an external safe place. For example, you may save these on a separate NFS mounted directory, a tape, or FTP'd to another machine.

Note This step must be performed first. (See Preserving scmdb Data section).

Step 2 If required, preserve the statsdb data. (See Preserving statsdb Data section).

Step 3 Install Solaris 9.

Step 4 Install any required Solaris 9 patches.

Step 5 Perform the SCMSA install procedure specifying the upgrade in the upgrade window.

Installing Solaris 9

This section is only for upgrades involving a move from Solaris 8 to Solaris 9.

When the SCMSA databases and other files have been saved, perform the following procedures described in Chapter 2.

1. Install Solaris 9.

2. Install Solaris 9 patches (refer to the most current release notes).

Note Make sure that the machine is rebooted at this point.

Upgrading from a Solaris 8 Platform to an SCMSA server Running Solaris 8

The upgrade process for a SCMSA server from a Solaris 8 platform consists of the following steps.

Step 1 If required, preserve the statsdb data. This step must be performed first. (See the Preserving statsdb Data section).

Step 2 Perform the SCMSA install procedure specifying upgrade in the upgrade window.

Upgrading Standalone Statistics Collection Manager -Software

Installing the Standalone SCM software consist of responding to a series of windows. The windows can be regarded as being made up of three phases.

•Initial upgrade phase

•Configuring Informix partitions phase (either with or without meta devices)

•Completing the upgrade phase

Selecting the Installation Mode

To install the SCMSA software, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Log in to the SCMSA workstation as user root.

Note If the workstation is an Ultra 60 or other desktop system, merely log in from the keyboard.
If the workstation is a Netra 20 or other rackmount system, use another Sun workstation or PC as a console and log in remotely using telnet).

Step 2 Insert the Cisco SCMSA CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of the workstation.

Step 3 Enter the following commands:
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0
# ls 
Step 4 Check for the InstallSCMSA.sh file.

Step 5 Begin the install process by entering the following command:
# ./InstallSCMSA.sh
The following message is displayed.
Console Mode Option is recommended when you cannot connect to X Server 
 from current terminal (See if you can open an xterm to check!) 
 Do you Want to Launch Installer in Console Mode? (Yes / No): [No]:
Step 6 Respond No to continue the installation using the Installshield GUI.
Respond Yes to continue the installation using Console Mode Install.

Note Console Mode Install is a command line script procedure. It is an alternative to the GUI and is intended for users who do not have access to an X window device. Using Console Mode Install, the user can install SCMSA using an alpha-numeric terminal or a PC in terminal emulator mode.

Making Selections during Console Mode Upgrade

The Console Mode procedure consists of responding to a series of questions. The user is asked either to select an item from a list or to enter data (for example, a database path or a disk size).

Selecting an Item from a List.

When a list is displayed, each item in the list has an item number. Further, one item in the list is already selected as indicated by an X. For example:
Choose the Raw partition for Informix Physical Log:
 [X]  1  -      /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s7 ( 4000 MB)   
 [ ]  2  -      /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0 ( 2048 MB)  
 [ ]  3  -      /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s1 ( 2048 MB)  
To select a choice enter its number, or 0 when you are finished [0]: 
The above example lists three disk partitions from which the user must select one. These items are numbered as 1, 2, and 3 and the first is already selected as indicated by [X].

The user can accept the already selected item or select another item by typing its number followed by the Enter key (in which case the list is displayed again but with the [X] against the selected item).

When the [X] is shown against the correct item (either in the initial display or after the user has selected another item), the user should press 0 followed by the Enter key. The following message is then displayed.
  Press 1 for Next panel, 2 for Previous panel, 3 to Cancel or 4 to
   Redisplay [1] 
The user then press 1, 2, 3, or 4 (as appropriate) followed by the Enter key. Normally this will be the 1 key to progress to next step in the upgrade process.

Upgrading SCMSA Software from Solaris 8 to Solaris 9 with Multiple CWM Gateways

When upgrading from a network with multiple CWM gateways, a special sequence of steps needs to be followed. This procedure ensures that, at all times, there is one and only one master CWM in a CWM domain for a particular release and that the integrity of the network configuration and user data files is maintained. This procedure does involve some downtime in the SCMSA workstations.

Initial Conditions before Upgrade

Consider an example network that has two Release 12 CWM gateways running Solaris 8 consisting of one master and one secondary and two Release 12 Solaris 8 SCMSA workstations. All workstations are up and running, all are synced, and all need to be upgraded to their equivalent Solaris 9 versions.

Note Although this example uses a network with two CWM workstations and two SCMSA workstations, the same procedure can be extended to a network using any number of workstations.

The first CWM workstation to be started is automatically assigned the role of primary workstation. The second workstation to be started becomes a secondary workstation with priority 1. Subsequent workstations become secondary workstations with priorities of 2, 3, and so on. To ensure such a primary/secondary arrangement, the DomainGatewayList field in the CWMGateway.conf file for all CWM workstations must list all CWM gateways. Likewise, the DomainGatewayList field in the SCMGateway.conf file for all SCMSA workstations must list all the CWM gateways.

As shown in Figure 8-20, CWM A workstation is primary and CWM B workstation is secondary. The CWMGateway.conf field for all CWM gateways contains the following entry:
DomainGatewayList CWMA CWMB
SCMGateway.conf field for all SCMSA gateways contains the entry:
DomainGatewayList SCMSAA SCMSAB

Upgrade Procedure

The following steps upgrade the workstations, one by one, to Release 15.1.50.

Step 1 Stop the core process for all SCMSA workstations.

Note Statistics generated during the period when the SCMSA workstations are stopped are not lost. When the workstations are started again, statistics occurring during the down period are collected from the nodes.

Step 2 Stop the CWM core process for CWM A

This action causes CWM B to assume the role of primary.

Step 3 On CWMA perform the following steps.

a. Save the database.

b. Install Solaris 9.

c. Install HP OpenView.

d. Install CWM 15.1.50 (Solaris 9).

Use the Primary/Secondary select window to select CWM A as primary.

Step 4 Start the CWM core process for CWM A.

CWM A starts as primary but in a different gateway domain.

Step 5 The new state of the workstations is shown in Figure 8-21.

CWM A 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running
Primary
DomainGateway List = A

CWM B 12, Sol 8
Core Running
Primary
DomainGateway List = A, B

SCMSA A 12, Sol 8
Core Stopped

SCMSA B 12, Sol 8
Core Stopped

Step 6 Upgrade SCMSA A and SCMSA B to Solaris 9 as described earlier in this chapter.

Use the procedure described in the "Upgrading Standalone Statistics Collection Manager -Software" section.

Step 7 Start the core process for both SCMSA A and SCMSA B.

The state of the workstations is now as shown in Figure 8-22.

DomainGateway List = A, B

SCMSA A 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running

SCMSA B 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running

Step 8 Stop the CWM core process for CWM B.

Step 9 On CWM B perform the following steps.

a. Save the database.

b. Install Solaris 9.

c. Install HP OpenView.

d. Install CWM 15.1.50 (Solaris 9).

Use the Primary/Secondary select window to select CWM A as primary and CWM B as secondary.

Step 10 Start the CWM core process for CWM B. CWM B starts as secondary in the same domain as CWM A.

The new state of the workstations is shown in Figure 8-23.

Figure 8-23 State of CWM Gateways after Step 7

CWM A 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running
Primary
DomainGateway List = A, B

CWM B 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running
Secondary
DomainGateway List = A, B

SCMSA A 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running

SCMSA B 15.1.50, Sol 9
Core Running

Step 11 At this point, all workstations are operating in the initial state except that they have all been upgraded to Solaris 9.

The user must now update the DomainGatewayList in the CWMGateway.conf file for all three gateways to include CWMA, CWMB. In this way the gateways will be part of the same gateway domain when their cores are restarted.

Upgrading SCMSA from CWM 12 or 15 Running Solaris 8 with Multiple SCM Gateways

Use the procedure above except that the following tasks at each step are omitted.

a. Save the database.

b. Install Solaris 9.

c. Install HP OpenView.

The only task required at each step is that of upgrading the SCMSA software.
