====== SVC and storwize upgrade ======

Easier way to upgrade is using GUI to upgrade

===== Precheck: =====

  * depending on hardware, check the required level available
<code>Ex: => google:  Hardware Interoperability Matrix v7000 </code>
  * check the upgrade steps, maybe you cannot update in one step from 8.1.7 to 8.3.1.3 !
<code>Ex: => google:  Concurrent Compatibility and Code Cross Reference for Spectrum Virtualize </code>

Download the test utility (required) and package upgrade

Start the upgrade in full automatic (best practice)

**Duration:** about 30 minutes per controler , depending on packages, and maybe also BIOS upgrades on SVC

During install, you have to check

===== check IP quorums =====

On Hyperswap cluster : v7k... and on SVC, check quorums, specificaly IP (an update is maybe useful)
  All quorums must be **online** and one IP quorum **active** when upgrade is finished

</cli>

On arrays, next step, the system 'll update firmaware on axpansions, there is no progress bar, just have to wait...

===== Next step on arrays =====

Check and maybe update drives firmwares 
    * download the packages for SAS and/or NVMe drives depending on your hardware

Then go into 
  Pools --> Internal Storage --> Actions --> Upgrade All 

If you got a message:
  CMMVC7241E System code update cannot start because a component firmware update is in progress.
  
Then wait ...

When upgrade starts, follow the progress with (about 4 minutes per drive):
<cli prompt='>'>
IBM_Storwize:V7K01:admin>lsdriveupgradeprogress
id  status        estimated_completion_time

13  not_scheduled
14  not_scheduled
15  not_scheduled
16  not_scheduled
17  not_scheduled
18  not_scheduled
</cli>

===== Quorum IP =====

Create a service with downloaded file **ip_quorum.jar** from storage SVC or v7000, and open firewall port :**1260**

==== On windows: ====

<cli prompt='>'>
sc.exe create "IBM_IP_quorum" binPath= "F:\<javapath>\java -jar ip_quorum.jar"
</cli>

To delete service:
<cli prompt='>'>
sc.exe delete SERVICE NAME
</cli>
