Troubleshooting pre-upgrade issues for LTR

Following are the pre-upgrade scenarios with the recommended workaround:

  • Failure in provisioning of odd_cache_fs

    Workaround: Ensure that sufficient storage space is available in default pool(s) that is configured for ObjectAccess.

  • Failure in backup of configuration file

    Workaround: Ensure that the odd_vipgrp_map.conf file is successfully copied to /shared/opendedup/.

  • Failure in backup of XML configuration files

    Workaround: Ensure that all the OpenDedup volume configuration XML files are successfully copied to /shared/opendedup/sdfs/.

  • Failure in shutdown of OpenDedup volume(s)

    Workaround:

    • Ensure that the volume is unmounted by using the mount -t fuse command.

    • Ensure all the jsvc processes are stopped. If the processes are not stopped, use the kill command to stop them.

    • Shutdown of the OpenDedup volume may result in java stack trace to be printed on console. This can be ignored as long as the volume is unmounted.

  • Failure in backup of the OpenDedup cache data

    Workaround: Ensure that the size of the local cache location, that is, /opt/sdfs/ volumes/<vol-name> is equivalent to the shared cache location, that is, /vx/odd_cache_fs/volumes/<vol-name>.
