Hi together
does anyone have experience for updating GPFS 3.2 to 3.4?
Is there a direct migration/updating path - means
mmshutdown -a
install / update_all the new filesets
mmstartup -a
Are there additional tasks to do?
Thanks in advance

In case you have remote clusters connecting to your cluster DO not
issue a 'mmchfs filesystem -V full ' after the update in case they run
a lower level then 3.4. I would also suggest that you check that you
have about 20% metadata space free in case you go for a 'mmchfs
filesystem -V full' ... or 'mmmigratefs filesystem --fastea' . Both
might require more metadata.

In case you have remote clusters connecting to your cluster DO not
issue a 'mmchfs filesystem -V full ' after the update in case they run
a lower level then 3.4. I would also suggest that you check that you
have about 20% metadata space free in case you go for a 'mmchfs
