Procedure for upgrading ACSLSHA to Solaris 11.4, Solaris Cluster 4.4 and ACSLS 8.5.1 (Doc ID 2655081.1)

Last updated on FEBRUARY 22, 2023

Applies to:

Purpose

ACSLSHA support using Solaris Cluster was last certified using ACSLS 8.4, ACSLSHA 8.4, Solaris 11.2 and Solaris Cluster 4.2.  The ACSLSHA 8.4 Solaris installation is documented in the ACSLSHA 8.4 High Availability Cluster Installation, Configuration, and Operation manual.

ACSLS 8.5.1 provides new certified ACSLSHA solutions for Linux using either (1) dual SL4000 feature cards both running ACSLS 8.5.1 on Linux 6.8 using the ACSLS Feature Card Availability Toolkit feature documented in the ACSLS 8.5.1 Installation manual; or (2) dual ACSLS 8.5.1 standalone servers executing any ACSLS 8.5.1 supported Linux using the ACSLSHA 8.5.1 for Linux feature documented in the ACSLS 8.5.1 High Availability Linux Installation, Configuration, and Operation manual.

This bulletin describes a method to upgrade or install a certified ACSLSHA Solaris cluster version using ACSLS 8.5.1, ACSLSHA 8.4, Solaris 11.4 and Solaris Cluster 4.4.

Scope

For existing ACSLSHA Solaris users who require upgrades to their Solaris version, or their ACSLS version, or both, the following procedures may be used to upgrade to the latest versions of Solaris, Solaris Cluster, and ACSLS. 

While the procedures below include a section for installing Solaris ACSLSHA 8.4 Environments to Solaris 11.4 from scratch, customers who are newly implementing an ACSLSHA solution are encouraged to investigate the ACSLSHA 8.5.1 for Linux solution(s) in preference to the ACSLS 8.5.1 with ACSLSHA 8.4 Solaris installation documented in this bulletin.
