Node in Out-of-Band Cluster

The following procedure is for a GigaVUE‑HC2 node in an out-of-band cluster to upgrade the control card to HC2 CCv2.

Note:  The HC2 CCv2 requires software version 4.6 or higher.

Before starting this procedure, upgrade all the nodes in the cluster to 4.6 or higher.

Then use the show chassis command to record the GigaVUE‑HC2 chassis box ID and the show cluster config command to record the cluster ID, cluster name, cluster leader leader in clustering node relationship (formerly master) address vip, cluster leader preference, and cluster interface.

To upgrade a GigaVUE‑HC2 that is in an out-of-band cluster to HC2 CCv2:

  1. On the cluster leader node, backup the entire configuration on the cluster to a text file.

(config) # configuration text generate active running upload <ftp | tftp | scp | sftp>://<upload URL>/<profilename.txt>

  1. On the cluster leader node, remove the configuration with the GigaVUE‑HC2 node from the cluster database. The commands may vary depending on your configuration.

(config) # no map all(config) # no gsop all(config) # no vport all(config) # no tunnel all(config) # no gsgroup all(config) # no stack alias <alias>

  1. On the GigaVUE‑HC2 node, issue the following commands:

(config) # no cluster enable(config) # write memory

  1. On the cluster leader, remove the GigaVUE‑HC2 node information from the cluster database. Answer YES when prompted. This removes the GigaVUE‑HC2 from the cluster.

(config) # no chassis box-id <box ID>

WARNING !! All the cards, ports, and traffic configuration will be lost.

Enter 'YES' to confirm this operation: YES

  1. Upgrade the GigaVUE‑HC2 to HC2 CCv2 by following the procedure for Standalone Node up to and including Step . (Since the GigaVUE‑HC2 has been removed from the cluster, it is a standalone node.)
  2. When the GigaVUE‑HC2 with HC2 CCv2 is back up, reinstate the cluster configuration including the cluster ID, cluster name, cluster leader address vip, cluster leader preference, and cluster interface, as well as the chassis box ID.

(config) # cluster id <cluster ID>(config) # cluster name <cluster name>(config) # cluster leader address vip <cluster leader vip>(config) # cluster interface eth<x>(config) # cluster leader preference <preference number for leader, standby, or normal>

  1. On the cluster leader, configure chassis information on the GigaVUE‑HC2 with HC2 CCv2, including the chassis box ID, serial number, and new node type.

(config) # chassis box-id <box ID> serial-num <serial number> type hc2-v2

  1. On the GigaVUE‑HC2 with HC2 CCv2 node, issue the following command for the node to rejoin the cluster:

(config) # cluster enable

  1. When the GigaVUE‑HC2 with HC2 CCv2 node is in the cluster, from the cluster leader apply the previously saved configuration:

(config) # configuration text fetch <http | https | ftp | tftp | scp | sftp>://<download URL>/<profilename.txt> apply fail-continue verbose

  1. Verify that the information on the cluster matches the previously saved configuration for chassis, cards, and traffic using the following CLI commands or others, depending on your configuration:

(config) # show version(config) # show cluster global(config) # show chassis(config) # show cards(config) # show map(config) # show map stats all
