Hi,
We are going to perform an upgarde of a existing 2-nodes VCS server from exsting VM 4.1 MP1, VCS ver 3.5 , to Storage Foundation Suite 5.0 MP3. (SF-HA 5.0 MP3)
We are going to perform the following:
1. Upgrade the the VM4.1 MP1 to VM4.1 MP2 on one node at a time.
2. From the installation CD, directly upgrade the SF-HA to SF-HA 5.0 MP3 on both nodes at the same time
3. Up the services.
Would like to know :
1. Is it perferred to upgrade SF-HA one node at a time, leaving the other node as production for some time before upgrading or we need to upgrade both nodes at the same time? What may be the estimate time required to perfrom the upgrade on a node?
2. What other areas of concerns which we need to look at?
Hope to hear the reply soon.
cheeer,
Mikerson
