TruCluster managers,
I'm new to TruClusters and I'm building a TruCluster 5.1 system starting
with an GS80 running Tru64 V5.1. I only have the one member at this time as
I haven't added the others yet. I wanted to put on patch kit 2 before adding
the other members. I tried to do a straight install since this was the only
member currently in the cluster but I got the message:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Checking Cluster State...done
This system is part of a V5.0 cluster which has not been prepared to do a
rolling patch installation. Refer to the Patch Installation Guide as to the
proper procedure to start a rolling patch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
I figured O.K. no problem, I could do that. So I started doing a rolling
patch, figuring it would be good practice, but the first command,
"clu_upgrade -v check setup 1" gave me the following error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Retrieving cluster upgrade status.
Retrieving cluster status.
Retrieving upgrade-related system configuration.
*** Error ***
All members must be running without tagged files.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Well, I couldn't get any of the "clu_upgrade tagged" commands to work at
all, They all gave me the following error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
*** Error ***
Member '1' appears to be booting or is in single-user mode. Either wait for
the node to continue booting, boot the node to multi-user mode, or halt the
node using the shutdown command. After all members are running in multi-user
mode or halted, you can rerun the clu_upgrade command.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
Now this was confusing because this system, Member '1' was up and in
multi-user mode. A "who -r" command showed the system to be in run-level 3.
Undaunted I decided to search the system with the "find" command to locate
any ".Old.." files. The command found none anywhere on the system. I figured
the error I got on the first clu_upgrade was just a warning message not a
show stopping error. So I continued with, "clu_upgrade setup 1" and got the
same error the "tagged" commands were giving me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

*** Error ***

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------
O.K. this appears to be a show stopping error. I ran clu_get_info to make
sure and yes this is definitely Member '1', currently it's the only member.
What could be wrong, why doesn't it see itself in run-level 3? Can anybody
help? I've been through the books and they are very good it explaining to
you how it's suppose to work, but don't give you much help when something
goes wrong.

UNIX is very user friendly, It's just very particular about who it makes
friends with.
