Verifying system status after an upgrade

It is a best practice to verify that upgraded systems are functioning as expected before returning them to production. This entails verifying the status of configured functionality and reenabling any functionality that was suspended before the upgrade.

About this task

These tasks should be performed on each partner of an HA pair and on each system that was upgraded.

Steps

  1. If your systems are in an HA pair configuration, enter the following command to verify that the HA relationship is operational:cf status
  2. If you disabled automatic giveback to prepare for a nondisruptive upgrade and you want to reenable it, enter the following command:options cf.giveback.auto.enable on
  3. Verify that the intended target release is installed and running by entering the following command:version
  4. Confirm that all paths to disk are visible to the system by entering the following command:storage show disk –p
  5. Confirm that there are no failed disks by entering the following command:vol status –f
  6. Verify that all aggregates are online by entering the following command:aggr status
  7. Confirm that network interfaces are online by entering the following command:ifconfig –a
  8. If your systems are configured for MultiStore technology, enter the following command to verify that all vFiler units are running:vfiler status -a
  9. If you disabled SnapMirror functionality, enter the following command to reenable it:snapmirror on
  10. If you quiesced SnapMirror transfers, enter the following command for each destination volume to resume them:snapmirror resume destination
  11. Because data compression on the volumes is disabled by default during the upgrade, if you enabled data compression on any 64-bit volume, enter the following command to reenable it:sis config -C true -I true path_name
