Multiple Updates needed in HA Setup SG450

Quick follow-up to a previous question - my HA setup is now licenced for another 12 months, so all good there.

But the Master SG450 shows that 4 Updates are needed. Currently its running 9.711 and has the 9.712, 9.7.713, 9.714 and 9.715 updates downloaded and ready to install. I am VERY WARY of the 9.712 update as that's the one that broke a lot of things back when it came out - including some HA setups. I dont want to break the environment this early on in the relationship ;)

Usually, I'd schedule each update for alte at night and let it install, reboot and then have the next one scheduled for either an hour later or the next night but that 9.712 update is making me nervous. Do you reckon it would be better to simply remote in late at night and just click the 'Update to Latest Version' button instead and apply ALL of the updates in one go then reboot and hopefully it all comes back up without breaking my HA setup?

Stupid HA, making me second guess myself ;)

Any tips or advice is appreciated ;)

  • Your system may have downloaded 9.712-12 and that version remains on the slave device, even if your master says next up2date is 9.712-13.

    You can switch HA to manual, SSH into master and Slave and remove all files (or only the problem-version 9.712-12) from update folders of master and slave.

    rm -rf /var/up2date/sys-install/*
    rm /var/up2date/sys/*

    After setting HA to auto again, only the correct up2dates should be loaded.

  • Thanks Dirkotte - quick folowup:

    'Switching HA to manual' - I take it you mean jumping into the HA Configuration screen and selecting Manual rather than Hot Standby (active-passive), then apply. Then SSHing into the Master and doing those steps. Then SSHing into the Slave and repeating those steps. Then setting the Operation Mode back to Hot Standby.


  • sorry .... Switching up2date to manual
