Name
The savenodedata1.1 command is used to dump the CSM Version 1.1 ManagedNode table to a file that can be used later as input to the definenode command. This will ease the transfer of some of the node data to the new release.
Synopsis
savenodedata1.1
Description
The savenodedata1.1 command will print out all the ManagedNode and PreManagedNode objects in a format compatible with the nodedef file format of CSM Version 1.2. Any attributes that have changed names or been deleted between CSM Version 1.1 and 1.2 will be correctly output in the format needed for CSM Version 1.2. Attributes that were not present in CSM Version 1.1 will not be displayed. When the resulting nodedef file is run with the CSM Version 1.2 definenode, these missing attributes will be filled in with defaults from the management server or left blank as needed. See the definenode man page for which attributes will get defaults. Follow these instructions to use savenodedata1.1:
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom/savenodedata1.1 > /tmp/nodedef.migrate
The savenodedata1.1 command generates the definitions for the nodes that are currently in your cluster and redirects them to a file called nodedef.migrate. Later in this procedure, you will use the nodedef.migrate file to provide your current node definitions to the new level of CSM.
rpm -e csm.client csm.core rsct.core rsct.core.utils src
rpm -e csm.gui.dcem csm.dsh csm.server csm.core rsct.core rsct.core.utils src
definenode -f /tmp/nodedef.migrate
Note that some of the node attributes that are used in CSM 1.2 were not present in CSM 1.1. When you run the definenode command, above, the missing attributes are filled in with defaults from the management server or left blank, as needed.
