should GAB/fencing be shut down on node B before doing the upgrade? I guess what I'm unsure of is what services need to be offline on node B compared to what would need to be shut down on node A?
So far what I've done is..
move everything to node 1
hastop -sys hostname
[root@linopstfg02 ~]# lltconfig
LLT is running
[root@linopstfg02 ~]# gabconfig -a
GAB Port Memberships
===============================================================
Port a gen dbff03 membership 01
Port b gen dbff06 membership 01
then I was going to start the installer and do the upgrade. fencing is still running as well as anything else not stopped by the hastop.
Below I've pasted a ps -ef. Forgive me if I've missed something, I'm not that familiar with VCS in terms of proper services to shut down. I'm not sure if there would be issues with some components still running during the upgrade and components being upgraded while being accessed by the other node. I want to make sure I do this right, and only once so that way I can replicate the exact same behavior on our current production nodes.
