Upgrading a Simple Load Balancing Cluster Installation

Where the cluster uses only the basic load balancing cluster support that is built into Unwired Platform.

  1. Shut down all Sybase-related processes on cluster nodes in this sequence:
    • Secondary Unwired Servers – shut down services in this order:
      1. Sybase Unwired Server
      2. Sybase Control Center X.X
      3. Sybase Unwired SampleDB (not applicable to Enterprise Server Edition)
    • Primary Unwired Server – shut down services in this order:
      1. Sybase Unwired Server
      2. Sybase Control Center X.X
      3. Sybase Unwired SampleDB (not applicable to Enterprise Server Edition)
    • Data tier server – shut down these services, in any order:
      • Sybase Unwired CacheDB
      • Sybase Unwired ClusterDB
      • Sybase Unwired LogDataDB
      • Advantage Database Server®
  2. Upgrade servers in this sequence, leaving Sybase services restarted on completion of each upgrade:
    1. Data tier.
    2. Primary node.
      Note: Do not begin upgrading any secondary servers until the primary server has completely finished restarting all its services after being upgraded.
    3. Secondary nodes.
