Follow this procedure to view the results of the RPM upgrade process and resolve any upgrade issues:
Use the method of your choice to view the following log file, which contain the results of the Linux RPM upgrade process; this example uses the more command:
It is expected to see RPM upgrade errors in this file; this is typical for standard Linux upgrades.
Use the method of your choice to view the following log file, which contains the results of the XC specific RPM upgrade process; this example uses the more command:
# more /var/log/postinstall.log |
Search for the word error in this log file to find upgrade errors. You can safely ignore the error rpmdb: No such file or directory . These errors are benign.
However, you must resolve failed dependencies and RPM conflicts. See “Troubleshooting the Software Upgrade Procedure” for information about resolving upgrade errors. If you cannot determine how to resolve these errors, contact the XC support team at:
<xc_support@hp.com>
Do not proceed to the next upgrade task until you resolve all RPM upgrade failures.
Look at Example 7-1 and Example 7-2 for examples of successful and failed RPM upgrade results.
Example 7-1 shows the results of a successful upgrade of XC specific RPMs.
Example 7-1 Successful Content in /var/log/postinstall.log File
