Preparing for the upgrade
Issue 3.0 February 2002 11
Disk mirroring
The CVUE disk drives that accompany this document are intended for an upgrade to a
nonmirrored system. If the customer has purchased additional disk drives to convert the
system from nonmirrored to mirrored, you must first do the CVUE upgrade for the
nonmirrored system as described in this document.
!
Important:
During the CVUE upgrade, do not insert any disks that were not part of the
CVUE kit.
After you have completed the CVUE procedures, use the instructions given in
CMS R3V9
Software Installation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting
, 585-215-956, to convert the
system from nonmirrored to mirrored.
Customization issues
If the customer’s CMS computer has third-party software or customizations that were
added to the standard set of CMS-related software, such as network printers or Visual
Vectors, those software packages and customizations are not preserved by the CVUE
upgrade process. The customer must collect, reinstall, recompile, and reconfigure any
non-CMS software after the upgrade is completed and approved.
The customer data copied during the upgrade procedure includes information such as the
following:
● License information
● User logins and passwords
● System name and IP address
● Serial printer administration
● CMS administration, setup, and authorizations
For a complete list of the files copied during the upgrade, see the /var/log/cvuelog file
after the upgrade is complete. A copy of the old system’s /etc/vfstab file is saved in the
cvuelog file.
