Upgrading NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center

The following procedures describe how to upgrade your NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center deployment. During the upgrade, you replace the container that runs your current version of NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center with a newer container.

To upgrade NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center server in Podman/Docker environment

  1. Download the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center upgrade installer.

    On the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center download page, click Download Now to download the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center installer.

    The NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center software components are available in a package form. The file name has the following format:

    NetBackup_SnapshotManager_<version>.tar.gz

    Note:

    The actual file name may vary depending on the release version.

  2. Copy the downloaded compressed image file to the computer on which you want to deploy NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center.
  3. Un-tar the image file and list the contents:
    # ls
NetBackup_SnapshotManager_10.3.x.x.xxxx.tar.gz
netbackup-flexsnap-10.3.x.x.xxxx.tar.gz
flexsnap_preinstall.sh
  4. Run the following command to prepare the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center host for installation:

    # sudo ./flexsnap_preinstall.sh

    The output resembles the following:

    For Podman

    # ./flexsnap_preinstall.sh 
 Validate host resources                  ...  done
 Validate SELINUX                         ...  done
 Check for podman installation            ...  done
 Validate podman version support          ...  done
 Check for podman socket file             ...  done
 Checking for required packages           ...  done
 Validate required services health        ...  done
 Removing deprecated services             ...  done
 Loading Snapshot Manager service images  ...  done
 Copying flexsnap_configure script        ...  done

    For Docker

    # ./flexsnap_preinstall.sh
 Validate host resources                  ...  done
 Check for docker installation            ...  done
 Validate docker version support          ...  done
 Check for docker socket file             ...  done
 Checking for required packages           ...  done
 Validate required services health        ...  done
 Loading Snapshot Manager service images  ...  done
 Copying flexsnap_configure script        ...  done
  5. Verify that there are no policies with snapshot or other operations in progress and then stop NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center by running the following command:

    For Podman 

    # podman run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint 
-v /run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock 
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<current_version> stop

    For Docker 

    # docker run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint 
-v /run/docker/docker.sock:/run/docker/docker.sock 
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<current_version> stop

    Here, current_version represents the currently installed NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center version.

    Note:

    Ensure that you enter the command without any line breaks.

    For Docker/Podman: Using the flexsnap_configure CLI: # flexsnap_configure stop

    The NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center containers are stopped one by one. Messages similar to the following appear on the command line:

    Stopping the services
Stopping services at time: Mon Jul 31 12:49:01 UTC 2023
Stopping container: flexsnap-workflow-system-0-min ...done
Stopping container: flexsnap-workflow-general-0-min ...done

Stopping container: flexsnap-rabbitmq ...done
Stopping container: flexsnap-postgresql ...done
Stopping container: flexsnap-fluentd ...done
Stopping services completed at time: Mon Jul 31 12:49:21 UTC 2023

    Wait for all the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center containers to be stopped and then proceed to the next step.

  6. Depending on the environment, upgrade NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center by running the following command:

    • For Podman

      # podman run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint
-v /run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<new_version> install

      For an unattended installation, use the following command:

      # podman run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint
-v /run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock 
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<new_version> install -y

    • For Docker

      # sudo docker run -it --rm -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint 
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<new_version> install

      For an unattended installation, use the following command:

      # sudo docker run -it --rm --privileged -u 0 -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint -v /cloudpoint:/cloudpoint 
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
veritas/flexsnap-deploy:<new_version> install -y

    • For Docker/Podman: Using the flexsnap_configure CLI: flexsnap_configure install

    Here, new_version represents the NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center version you are upgrading to, for example '10.3.x.x.xxxxx'

    The -y option passes an approval for all the subsequent installation prompts and allows the installer to proceed in a non-interactive mode.

    Note:

    Ensure that you enter the command without any line breaks.

    The installer first loads the individual service images and then launches them in their respective containers.

    The output resembles the following (Below is an example of the Podman environment output:
