Version 5.3 Upgrade ProceduresSE 6000 Security Management System
PHASE 1 SAVING THE CONFIGURATION FILES
You will need the 5.3 Update disk and a scratch tape for this phase.
In phase 1, you save the system configuration files/database and remove the Irwin tape drivers,
the Edge drivers, and the Corollary drivers.
Note
Before the upgrade removes each driver, an on-screen prompt asks you to relink the kernel; WSE
recommends that you answer no (n) to each question. The system automatically links the kernel
in phase 3 of the upgrade.
1. Login as root and enter your password.
2. Notify other users that you plan to log them off of the system while the upgrade is in progress.
3. Logoff other users.
4. Shut down the SE 6000 system by typing $PROGPATH/shutbai at the prompt. The system
displays SE/SMS Shutdown, indicating the system has shut down.
5. Insert the 5.3 Update disk and at the prompt (#), type xinstall; press Enter. The system
displays First Floppy Y/N, type Y; press Enter. Note that about midway through the
installation of xinstall, the xinstall program pauses at the system restore > prompt to give you
an opportunity to abort (press the Del key to abort) the installation. If you press Enter, the
installation continues and deletes the old database.
Note
Before the upgrade removes each driver, an on-screen prompt asks you to relink the kernel; WSE
recommends that you answer no (n) to each question. The installation automatically links the
kernel in phase 3 of the upgrade.
When this step of the xinstall program concludes, the system asks you to insert the scratch
tape.
Before you insert the scratch tape, make sure that the scratch tape is not write protected.
6. Insert the scratch tape, press Enter, and follow the on-screen prompts.
After the configuration and database has copied to the scratch tape, the following message
appears:
At the safe to power off message, insert the SCO System boot diskette, and the SCO
OpenServer tape media for Release 5.0.2, reboot and proceed as instructed.
7. Press Enter to shut the system down and Safe to Power Off appears.
Note
If your system gives you an option to do an update or a Fresh install, always do the Fresh install.
