Upgrade to 2.7.4.2 (Yes, again)

[adam.west]

2.7.3.2 to latest upgrade (2.7.4.2 currently) just not happening. I've read a couple dozen or more articles on it being stuck in Downloading status in the GUI, and showing downloading in the CLI. I cannot seem to get it to work.  I've cleared the /opt/LCM/tmp/downloads of files, and re-downloaded successfully (and watched the file sizes stop growing in the CLI). restarted the services, access CLI with collectorlogin (changing to root)..even tried the manual deployment doc (but cannot get ./install.sh to work from anywhere).

What in the world am I missing? This cannot be this ridiculous to upgrade every time can it?

Hi Adam,

I believe you must be using below document on manual upgrade.

https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/support/docs/cloud-systems-management/common-services-platform-collector-cspc/CSPC-Manual-Upgrade-Guide.pdf

Let's find out where you are stuck. You mentioned that you were able to download successfully. Could you please provide me below from user 'root'?

if you are on step 4 (pg 7) from guide and able to unzip successfully, then you will see install.sh, jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip and sp-30.0.4-0-0-lnx64.zip. To check this, please do below and share output

Once you are in root, type

# cd /opt

# ls -l

As well, please do let me know, what do you see when you run below command from guide. Please share output for further analysis.

[root@localhost opt]# ./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip

Thanks,

Supriya

So several things here - and not sure how I could have done it incorrectly, but...

1) The .zip file is in /opt/LCM/tmp/downloads - not in /opt

2) Copying the .zip file to /opt as suggested is done.

3) Extracting the .zip file in /opt is done.

4) ./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip doesn't work until you drill down into the unzipped directories into 'Preinstall'.

5) Running ./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip from here produces:

[root@ofgciscocollector Preinstall]# ./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip

Running the same ./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip the CSPC directory produces a ton more action, clipping for brevity:

No idea what to do with it now.  Both manual upgrade items said they updated successfully...but nothing has changed. I *really* don't want to start all over, deploying a new system because this won't update properly.

Hi Adam,

Following will help to check upgrade progress. Complete upgrade, apply JeOS and SP ,can take more than 1 hr. Once JeOS is completed, we need to follow SP from same document. Please give me output of following from user root, so I have more idea where we are.

# tail -f /opt/LCM/logs/apply

Thanks,
Supriya

[adam.west]

This is where it is:

Hi Adam,

./install.sh JeOS jeos-30.0.4-0-lnx64.zip - even thought it started installing JeOS for 2.7.4 but  tail output shows successful running and completed 2.7.3.2 so it seems confusing. For more clear understanding, I have requested more outputs via private message, please send over for further analysis.

Thanks,
Supriya
