Express5800/320Fc: Active Upgrade™ User’s Guide

If you are creating or editing a configuration file, you can click any entry in the
Configuration section to skip directly to the associated configuration page. These
pages have the following purposes:

Configuration

— Allows you to create or select a configuration file to modify, or to

start the upgrade process with no configuration file. (When you start the Active
Upgrade console, it opens on this page.)

Disk Selection

— Allows you to select the disks that contain the software you

want to upgrade.

Other Configurations

— Allows you to select other configuration files to

incorporate into the current configuration.

Application Services

— Allows you to select the application services that

need to be stopped and restarted during the upgrade process.

Log File Backup

— Allows you to select the event log (.evt) files from the

Production Side that the Active Upgrade console preserves upon merging the
system. (Otherwise, any event messages generated on the Production Side
while the system is in split mode are lost when you commit the upgrade).

Custom Actions

— Allows you to specify executable files that the Active

Upgrade console can use to stop and start your applications (or to perform
special tasks) during the upgrade process.

Description

— Allows you to specify a title and comments for the current

configuration file.

Upgrade Summary

— Displays a summary of the current upgrade

configuration, and allows you to save the current configuration file.

The Active Upgrade section of the navigation bar (

Figure 2-6

) contains entries specific

to the executing the upgrade process.
