Hi,

Ok I know its an old version, but it is as new as I can go with my current 
installation :-(

I am trying to upgrade from Networker 6.0.2 to 6.1.4 on Tru64 Unix 4.0G 
with TruCluster 1.6.

It is a two member cluster and Networker 6.0.2 is running as a cluster 
aware server in a TruCluster member service.

The 6.0.2 installation is working fine and fails over properly between 
members.
(I am upgrading to get proper support for LTO-2, and to fix an issue with 
cloning/staging.)

I have installed the 6.1.4 release on my cluster members, and I am having 
the same problem with installation that I have seen with earlier 6.x 
releases post 6.0.2.
The software will run fine in a standalone install, but does not want to 
start as a cluster member service.
(I am probably missing a step or not interpreting the upgrade instructions 
properly.)

I am following the instructions in the Tru64 Installation Guide for Tru64 
4.0G with TruCluster 1.6.
The instructions describe an upgrade installation from version 5.5.x to 
version 6.x but not a version 6.x to 6.x upgrade. However I am assuming 
there is no significant difference. (Please advise if there is a different 
set of instructions to follow.)
I shutdown the Networker cluster service with asemgr -x clutape1. (clutape1 
is my service name for Networker.) 
I then remove the old software subsets, (setld -d) but select the options 
to keep existing NSR databases etc.
Then I install the new software subsets, (setld -l).
The software installs, and starts up the Networker daemons. I can now run 
nwadmin and connect to the Networker server software.
When I try the next step in the instructions, (which is to restart the 
cluster service using asemgr -s clutape1) The system trys to start the 
service as normal, but eventually complains about starting the nsrexecd 
daemon, then shuts down again.
(I have tried shutting down Networker after the install, then starting it 
as a cluster service, but this has no effect.)

(I have reversed the install back to 6.0.2, and this restarts fine as a 
cluster service.)

Do I have to make some alterations to the configuration files inside the 
cluster shared disk area for Networker, (as opposed to the new files 
installed on local disk on each member server ?)

Can you offer any help ?

Many thanks,

Howard Anderson.
