PowerScale OneFS Upgrade Planning and Process Guide
Complete NDMP backups
Before you upgrade, you must wait for Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) backups to finish so you have saved copies of your data.
NOTE:If you cannot wait for NDMP backups to finish, stop the active NDMP backups 30– 60 minutes before the upgrade, as the NDMP backup process requires this additional time to come to a stop.
For instructions on how to stop backup jobs, see the documentation for your backup application.
NOTE:If you are upgrading from
OneFS version 8.0.x or 8.1.x to
OneFS 8.2.x, you must disable the NDMP service before performing the upgrade.
