Upgrading in a Cluster

Note: Upgrade from any release before 3.0 (sometimes named r3) to CA Job Management for OpenVMS Release 3.1 is not supported. If you want to install Release 3.1 on a system, which is running Unicenter TNG Workload Manager 2.4.2 or ScheduleIT 2.4, follow one of the options:

1. Upgrade to 3.0 or 3.0 SP1, followed by upgrade to 3.1.
2. Script all the jobs from your database. Uninstall the Job Manager/Scheduler from the system. Install CA Job Management for OpenVMS Release 3.1. Import the scripted jobs by running the script file to populate the job database. For more information about the SCRIPT JOB command, see the Command Reference Guide.

Release 3.1 of CA Job Management for OpenVMS includes database format changes. If you are upgrading Release 3.1 on a server in a cluster, do the following for the product to work correctly:

• Shut down Job Management Manager on all nodes in the cluster.
• Do not start Job Management Manager on any node until all the nodes have been upgraded.
• Do not run the Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) on any node until all the nodes have been upgraded.
• Upgrade all nodes in the cluster to this release.
• Start Job Management Manager and run the IVP on desired nodes.
• Start Job Management Manager on all remaining nodes.

Note: Any jobs that are requested to run with override parameters using the command RUN /PARAMETERS=, but which have not run may need to be reset after the upgrade. The file TEMP_PARMS.DAT will be converted. Check the job before starting Job Management Manager after the upgrade.
