Warning! Please read before update a HA System prior 9.356 to 9.4.x!

CS over 8 years ago

I ran in problems when updating HA Systemt from 9.3x to 9.4x.

Symptom:

Up2date on Slave till 9.356 then "Installation failed". The Slave stucks in mode "Reserved".

Cause (Found on several HA Systems):

Wrong Updates in /var/up2date/sys:

u2d-sys-9.355001-356003 don't removes u2d-sys-9.355001-401011 from slave node,

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43781654 May 24 14:33 u2d-sys-9.355001-356003.tgz.gpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 402123045 May 10 08:49 u2d-sys-9.355001-401011.tgz.gpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 402123204 May 24 14:49 u2d-sys-9.356003-401011.tgz.gpg

@Sophos: Did anyone a testing prior to roll out?

As I wrote here https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/52/p/77397/297227#297227 I ran into the same problem - but:

It took really some time (10 min or so!!) and the installer did proceed suddenly with installing the next updates on slave and the master node fine. Afterwards I had to delete

/var/up2date/sys/u2d-sys-9.355001-401011.tgz.gpg manually.

As I said, I hope this IS fine indeed and has no further side-effects.

Cheers, Chris

I will be updating a HA pair later today, I've taken the following precaution:

Setting the "Firmware Download Interval" to manual and removing the u2d-* files from /var/up2date/sys on both slave and the master via SSH, then running "audld.plx" on the master and at least the erroneous update file (u2d-sys-9.355001-401011.tgz.gpg) is gone on the slave.
