Preparing for the First Host Upgrade

Shut down SAP Mobile Platform services on cluster nodes in an exact sequence and take cluster resources offline on the active node.

  1. Make sure the active data tier node is on the same host server as the primary Mobile Server node.
    If it is not, use Failover Cluster Manager to move the cluster's File Server service to the other data tier node.
  2. Shut down the secondary Mobile Server – shut down services in this order:
    1. SAP Mobile Server
    2. SAP Control Center X.X
  3. Shut down the primary Mobile Server – shut down services in this order:
    1. SAP Mobile Server
    2. SAP Control CenterX.X
  4. Go to the desktop of the active node.
  5. In Failover Cluster Manager on the active node, make sure the following SAP Mobile Platform resources are offline:
    • SAP Mobile Platform CacheDB service
    • SAP Mobile Platform ClusterDB service
    • SAP Mobile Platform LogDataDB service
  6. Proceed with the first host upgrade on the active node.
