Upgrading an HA Deployment with an NFS /store/backup Partition
You can upgrade an JSA deployment with an NFS /store/backup
partition to JSA 7.3.0.
Ensure that the primary and secondary hosts are in an HA cluster.
- Confirm that the order of the store mount points in the
/etc/fstab
file on both the primary and the secondary host is as follows:/store
/store/tmp
/store/transient
/store/backup
Restart the hosts if you made any changes to the
/etc/fstab
file. - Ensure that the
/store/backup
partition is mounted on both the primary host and the secondary host - Mount the JSA 7.3.0 ISO on both
the primary and secondary hosts.
mount -o loop <JSA_7.3.0.iso> /media/cdrom
- Prepare for the upgrade by typing the following command
on both the primary and secondary hosts:
/media/cdrom/post/prepare_offboard_storage_upgrade.sh
- Upgrade the primary host by typing the following command:
/media/cdrom/setup
- The upgrade fails after the initial restart. A message
prompts you to remount the
/store/backup
partition correctly.When prompted to remount
/store/backup
, run the following command:systemctl start rpcbind systemctl start nfs
- Mount the
/store/backup
partition by typing the following command:mount /store/backup
- Continue the upgrade by typing the following command:
/root/complete_upgrade.sh
- After the upgrade on the primary host finishes, copy the
following file from primary host to the secondary host by typing the
following command as one line:
scp /opt/qradar/conf/capabilities/map_localhost_interfaces.txt.bak root@<secondary_ip>:/opt/qradar/ha/map_localhost_interfaces.txt
- Upgrade the secondary host.
- Repeat steps 6-8 if the secondary host encounters the same issue.
- After the secondary upgrade finishes, ensure that both
the primary and secondary hosts have
/store/backup
entry in the/etc/fstab
file. - Verify that the
/store/backup
partition is mounted properly
