  • 1.  Mobility Conductor 8.10.0.6 LSR unable to update MD cluster

    Posted Feb 24, 2023 07:09 AM

    Hi

    Just deployed the 8.10 LSR to our MC cluster. No problem there. But something's failing as I try to schedule update our clusters to 8.10.

    There's a profile configured, and the software available via SCP in a folder.

    But I'm not getting the notification in the banner to indicate an upgrade is scheduled as per guide below:


    "A scheduled upgrade icon in the banner indicates that one or more clusters are scheduled for upgrade. Hovering over the scheduled upgrade icon opens a pop-up which lists the number of clusters that are scheduled for upgrade. Click the number in the pop-up to open the Managed Network node hierarchy table. The Managed Network node hierarchy table is filtered to list only the clusters that are scheduled for upgrade."

    After clicking 'Install' on the Install Confirmation warning about performance being impacted, the orange progress bar rolls across the top of the browser, and I'm returned to the default MC Software Management page.

    I've not tried CLI yet.

    Any thoughts why GUI might be failing?

    Thanks.

    When using the 'Now' option instead of 'Later' and specifying the same SCP path and user details as I have in the profile, the update works.


    But I don't want to work in that manner for the 3 production clusters. I want that to happen in the small hours of the morning using a scheduled upgrade.

    So if anyone has thoughts on why the schedule doesn't work, I'd love to hear them.

    Thanks.

    On the MM, type "show audit-trail" to see if any commands were executed or if there was an error.

    audit-trail is interesting - no error, but can see the commands. Where I've been trying to get the process to work

    NODE:"/mm/mynode" COMMAND:<lc-cluster RAP schedule upgrade version 8.10.0.6_86193 2023 02 24 12 00 00 > -- command executed successfully

    Even though execution was successful there was no indication of it, and nothing happened to the controllers. I tried at 11:30 this morning too. 

    there are then a few lines in the logs before I did the manual 'Now' upgrade. No idea what the <show switches> fails are though:

     I fancied another go at the scheduled upgrade for one of the other clusters, and this time, after entering the same info apart from the date/time, it worked, with the upgrade specified for over 24 hours from now. But when I try to set an upgrade off just 30 mins from now, it doesn't work. I don't care about that as I want the production clusters doing their thing in the small hours of the morning, so, we're good. Nothing to see here.
