Upgrading to Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X v10.4 “Tiger”
Step 5:
Upgrade the primary controller to Mac OS X v10.4.1 and Xsan 1.1
Now that the standby controllers are running Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X v10.4.1 or later, you
can upgrade the primary controller.
To upgrade your primary controller to Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X v10.4.1:
1
Insert the Mac OS X version 10.4 software installation disc in the primary controller
computer and double-click the Install Mac OS X (or Mac OS X Server) icon.
2
When you reach the Select Destination pane of the installer, click Options and select
Upgrade Mac OS X (or Mac OS X Server).
Important:
Be sure to select the upgrade installation, not the clean installation. If you
perform a clean installation of the operating system, the controller will lose its copy of
the Xsan configuration files.
3
Restart the controller computer when prompted by the installer.
4
Update the controller to Mac OS X v10.4.1 or later.
Choose Software Update from the Apple menu and install the Mac OS X or Mac OS X
Server v10.4.1 (or later) update.
If the controller is on a private network, you can use a computer that is connected to
the Internet to download the update from www.apple.com/support/downloads,
transfer the installer to the controller computer, and run it.
5
Upgrade the primary controller to Xsan 1.1.
If you have an Xsan 1.1 installation disc, insert it in the computer and double-click
Install Xsan.mpkg.
If you don’t have the disc but the computer is connected to the Internet, you can open
the Software Update pane of System Preferences, click Check Now, select the Xsan
Update version 1.1 update, and click Install.
If the controller is on a private network, you can use a computer that is connected to
the Internet to download the update from www.apple.com/support/downloads,
transfer the installer to the controller computer, and run it.
6
Restart the controller when prompted by the installer.
