B Additional Steps to Migrate HP-UX Hosts

Rescanning for New LUN Paths

Before continuing with migration, it is recommended that you rescan for new LUN paths and make
a note of the new paths to the volumes:
# ioscan -fnC disk

HP-UX 1 1i V3

HP-UX 1 1i v3 standalone and Serviceguard clustered hosts can be migrated by using the online
migration procedure. No additional configuration is required on the hosts.

HP-UX 1 1i V2

HP-UX 1 1iv2 standalone hosts can be migrated by using the online migration procedure. However,
after zoning in the destination array to the standalone hosts, the new paths/physical volumes (PVs)
must be added to the volume group/PVLinks configuration by using the vgextend command
before removing the paths to the source array. For example:
# vgextend
To confirm configuration of the PVLinks configuration, issue the vgdisplay command.
A Serviceguard cluster, running on HP-UX 1 1i V2, can also be migrated by using the online
migration procedure, but if shared volume groups that use the Shared Logical Volume Manager
(SLVM) are used, then additional configuration steps are required because the shared volume
group does not automatically recognize new paths to the volume exported through the destination.
Use the following single-node online reconfiguration (SNOR) operation (see "???TITLE???") to
change the configuration of a shared volume group, while keeping it active in only a single node.
During the volume group reconfiguration, applications on at least one node will be available.

Single-node Online Reconfiguration

1. Identify the shared volume group on which a configuration change is required. Call it
vg_shared.
2. Identify one node of the cluster which is running an application using the shared volume group.
Call it node1. The applications on this node that are using the volume group, vg_shared,
will remain unaffected during the procedure.
3. Stop the applications using the shared volume group on all the other cluster nodes, thus scaling
down the cluster application to the single cluster node, node1.
4. Deactivate the shared volume group on all other nodes of the cluster, except node1, by issuing
the vgchange command -a n option:
# vgchange -a n vg_shared
5. Ensure that the volume group, vg_shared, is now active only on a single cluster node, node1,
by using the vgdisplay command on all cluster nodes. The Status should show that the
volume group is available on a single node only.
6. On node1, change the activation mode to exclusive by issuing the following command:
# vgchange -a e -x vg_shared
