Upgrading the Cluster Edition Server Using an Input File
After successfully completing the verification procedure, you can upgrade the server using an input file.
Start sybcluster. For example, enter:
sybcluster -U uafadmin -P -F "mynode:8999"
Start the upgrade. For example, enter:
upgrade server myserver file "/data/myserver_ce.xml"
In this example, /data/myserver_ce.xml is
the configuration file created during the validation procedure.
Note: The configuration file is similar to that used by sybcluster to
create a cluster.
sybcluster displays these prompts:
Enter the name of an sa login
on server server_name [sa] – press Enter to accept the default, or enter the name of another
user with sa privileges on the target server.
Enter a password for the sa login.
sybcluster begins the upgrade procedure,
displays informational messages as the upgrade proceeds, and confirms
the success of the upgrade.
