Preparing for the upgrade

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.
