To upgrade the Tivoli® Storage
Manager server from
V5.5 to V7.1 in
a clustered environment on a Windows system,
plan the upgrade. Then, install the V7.1 server on
all nodes in the cluster. Finally, run the upgrade wizard, which inserts
the new database and configures the system.
Before you begin
If you are planning an in-place upgrade on the same system,
ensure that you retain the installation media from the base release
of the installed V5 server. If you installed
Tivoli Storage
Manager from a DVD,
ensure that the DVD is available. If you installed
Tivoli Storage
Manager from a downloaded
package, ensure that the downloaded files are available. If the upgrade
fails, and the server license module is uninstalled, the installation
media from the V5 server base release are required to reinstall the
license.
Procedure
- Plan the upgrade and prepare the system, as described in Planning the upgrade and preparing the system.
- Run the upgrade wizard, as described in Installing the V7.1 server and running the upgrade wizard.
