This command performs rolling upgrade on a single host or multiple hosts and their associated target databases from a lower version of SnapManager to a higher version. The upgraded host is managed only with the higher version of SnapManager.

Syntax

smsap repository rollingupgrade
-repository
-dbname repo_service_name
-host repo_host
-login -username repo_username
-port repo_port
-upgradehost host_with_target_database
[-force] [-noprompt]
[-quiet | -verbose]

Parameters

  • -repository

    The options that follow -repository specify the details of the database for the repository.

  • -dbname repo_service_name

    Specifies the name of the database that stores the repository. Use either the global name or the SID.

  • -host repo_host

    Specifies the name or IP address of the host computer the repository database runs on.

  • -login

    Starts the repository login details.

  • -username repo_username

    Specifies the user name needed to access the database that stores the repository.

  • -upgradehost host_with_target_database

    Specifies the name of the host which will be rolling upgraded from a lower version of SnapManager to a higher version.

  • -port repo_port

    Specifies the TCP port number used to access the database that stores the repository.

  • -force

    Attempts to force the update of the repository. SnapManager prompts you to make a backup of the current repository before updating.

  • -noprompt

    Does not display the prompt before updating the repository database. Using the -noprompt option ensures the prompt does not appear, making it easier to update repositories using a script.

  • -quiet

    Displays only error messages on the console. The default is to display error and warning messages.

  • -verbose

    Displays error, warning, and informational messages on the console.
