Last Published: 2019-06-18

Product(s): InfoScale & Storage Foundation (7.4.1)

Platform: Solaris

Verifying Solaris 11 BE upgrade

To ensure that BE upgrade has completed successfully, verify that all the nodes have booted from the alternate BE and joined the cluster.

To verify that BE upgrade is completed successfully

Verify that the alternate BE is active.
```
# beadm list
```
If the alternate BE fails to be active, you can revert to the primary BE.
See Reverting to the primary BE on a Solaris 11 system.

In a cluster environment, make sure that all the GAB ports are up. Note that different ports appear for different products.

# gabconfig -a
GAB Port Memberships
===================================
Port a gen   389906 membership 0123
Port b gen   389908 membership 0123
Port d gen   38990b membership 0123
Port f gen   389927 membership 0123
Port h gen   38992d membership 0123
Port m gen   389914 membership 0123
Port o gen   38990d membership 0123
Port u gen   389925 membership 0123
Port v gen   38991f membership 0123
Port w gen   389922 membership 0123
Port y gen   389920 membership 0123

Perform other verification as required to ensure that the new BE is configured correctly.
For example, verify the version in the /etc/release file and verify the VRTSdbac version.

If you have set AutoStart to 0 for the service group containing zone resource earlier, perform the following steps:

Verify whether the zpool on which the root file system of the zone is residing is imported
```
# zpool list
```
If not imported, online the zpool resource.
Attach the zone.
```
# zoneadm -z <zone> attach
```
Reset AutoStart to 1 for the service group containing zone resource.
```
# hagrp -modify <group> AutoStart 1
```

If you have installed VRTSvxfs or VRTSodm packages inside the zones, you need to manually upgrade these packages inside the zone.
