QoreStor 7.0.0 - Installation Guide

Upgrading your QoreStor Software using the QoreStor Command Line

To upgrade a current installation of QoreStor, follow the steps below:

  1. Download the new QoreStor executable. Refer to Downloading the QoreStor Software for detailed information.
  2. Using the appropriate utility (pscp on Windows / scp on Mac or Linux) copy the QoreStor installation files to the server.

    NOTE: You may use the Upgrade page of the QoreStorto UI to upload binaries to the QoreStor server.

  3. Set execution permission on the installation files using chmod. For example,

    $ chmod a+x qs_inst_7.0.0.356.bin

  4. With elevated privileges (either as root or with the sudo command), execute the installation script according below

    $ sudo ./qs_inst_7.0.0.356.bin

    and follow the prompts to complete the upgrade.

  5. After the upgrade script completes, some QoreStor processes will continue behind the scenes. The system will not be operational until these processes complete. Execute the command watch /opt/QoreStor/bin/system —show to monitor the progress of QoreStor services.

    NOTE: In some instances, some DMAs may experience timeout errors when trying to access QoreStor containers after an upgrade. If this occurs, wait until QoreStor is fully online, then restart the DMA.

Upgrading the QoreStor Operating System

Review the requirements and considerations below before upgrading the operating system on the QoreStor server.

  • Ensure that the OS version and kernel version are supported. Refer to the QoreStor Interoperability Guide for up-to-date information.
  • When VTL support is enabled during the QoreStor installation, modules are installed that are specific to the kernel version at the time of installation. If the operating system on the QoreStor server is updated, these modules may not work correctly. When updating the operating system on the VTL-enabled QoreStor server, perform the actions below:
    • Upgrade QoreStor to the latest version. Refer to Upgrading your QoreStor software
    • If you are using Oracle Enterprise Linux, before upgrading the operating system, execute the command below
      yum install yum-utils; yum-config-manager --disable ol7_UEKR*
    • Upgrade the operating system using the command
      yum upgrade --disableexcludes=all
    • After the OS upgrade is complete, reboot the QoreStor system to boot into the new kernel . Based on the QoreStor installation, the VTL modules are installed into the new kernel at the time of Qorestor startup.

    NOTE: If QoreStor was installed without enabling VTL support, this procedure is not required.
