Info

NOTE: If you have previously applied any patches specific to vPars, you will need to re-apply those patches to the vPars product. Upgrading Integrity Servers from the sx1000 to sx2000 Chipset You can upgrade the following Integrity servers from the sx1000 to sx2000 chipsets: • rx7620 to rx7640 • rx8620 to rx8640 • Integrity Superdome To perform the hardware upgrade, follow the process documented in the hardware upgrade manual for your server. CAUTION: Upgrade Notes • vPars A.04.02 or later is required for vPars running on HP Integrity servers with the sx2000 chipset. • PHKL_34088 is also required for vPars running on HP Integrity servers with the sx2000 chipset. • The physical hardware upgrade from the rx7620 to rx7640 requires a cold-install of the OS and therefore of vPars as well. • Only Hewlett-Packard qualified service personnel can perform hardware upgrades from rx8620 to rx8640 or from Integrity/sx1000 Superdome to Integrity/sx2000 Superdome. While performing the hardware upgrades, HP qualified service personnel will reference the following documents when making the necessary HP-UX and vPars configuration changes: HP I/O Hardware Upgrade Scripts Guide for HP Integrity Superdome/sx2000 Servers and HP-UX Impacts on the Upgrade Process for the rx8620 to rx8640 Hardware Upgrade. • Be aware that instead of performing the upgrades for vPars, LVM, etc., you also have the option of performing a cold-install on the post-upgrade hardware as if they were new systems with no previous installations. Hardware Path Changes The upgrade changes the hardware paths. For the new hardware paths as well as the hardware upgrade process, see the upgrade manual for your server. For reference, the changes are noted in the tables at the end of this section: • “rx7620 to rx7640 Hardware Path Changes ” (page 115) • “rx8620 to rx8640 Hardware Path Changes ” (page 115) • “Integrity Superdome Hardware Path Changes (x=cell)” (page 115) vPars Database Changes As part of the upgrade process, HP qualified service personnel will need to make updates to each virtual partition’s vPars database (vpdb) in nPars mode following the server hardware changes. These and other necessary steps are described in the HP I/O Hardware Upgrade Scripts Guide for HP Integrity Superdome/sx2000 Servers and HP-UX Impacts on the Upgrade Process for the rx8620 to rx8640 Hardware Upgrade service documents. Hardware Path Tables The tables below show the new hardware paths. For details on the new hardware paths and other hardware information, see the applicable hardware upgrade manuals for your server, available at http://docs.hp.com. 114 Installing, Updating, or Removing vPars and Upgrading Servers with vPars
