Order of upgrade
I have a large ucsm 2.0(3c) infrastructure utilizing VMware 5.0 auto deploy.
Need to upgrade to 2.2(1d) and VMware 5.5 u1 still using auto deploy.
Any thoughts/documents on order of upgrade? Some of the components I am using: 6248 fi's, vCenter, esx, srm, heartbeat, ibm svc sra, fnic & enic driver with cisco custom image for auto deploy, ibm svc fiber channel san, b200 m3 vic 1240, b440 m2 vic 1280.
I was thinking the order would go:
ucsm fi firmware
heartbeat
vcenter
auto deploy
srm
blade firmware one at a time along with new VMware image at re-boot. New fnic & enic driver as well.
Thanks
Regarding UCS, the following document gives you all the details

Upgrading Cisco UCS from Release 2.0 to Release 2.2
Don't know the details; but if this is a operational environment, I would be very careful, do some tests first, and schedule a huge maintenance window.
UCS Update is the easiest step.
Good luck
Walter.

Upgrading from 10.6.8 to Yosemite, order of upgrades?
Hi all,
I work for a senior college. We currently have a mac running OS X 10.6.8, DeployStudio and Server.
What I want to know is the order to upgrade.
OS - Server - DeployStudio or Server - OS - DeployStudio etc. etc etc.....
I will be performing a full backup and clone for fallback.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
Kind regards,
Mike BRepair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X. -
D I have to install a new hard drive on my computer in order to upgrade my computer
I have an older IMAC with Mac OSX 10.5.8 installed. I am unable to upgrade my software. Will installing a new hard drive enable me to me up to date?
No. In order to upgrade:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Now, you may need a new hard drive, but not to upgrade the OS unless your drive has no more free space left. -

When I try to upgrade and install to iOS 5.1, error message prompt "operation stop running". I have tried several time but failed. Also, would like to know why always need to have wifi access in order to upgrade the version of iPad iOS, what is the purpose of 3G then? This is really nonsense using wifi + 3G iPad. need help ! Thanks.
The file is too large to download via 3G. There is a 20MB limit with 3G. The purpose of having 3G is that you have internet access everywhere and do not need to be near a WiFi hotspot or network.
Not every single thing that you do every single minute of the day on the iPad involves downloading files larger than 20MB. You can surf the internet all day long sitting out in a park somewhere with 3G - but not with a WiFi only iPad - unless you use a hotspot with it.
Try turning off your firewall and anti virus software while you try to download the iOS update. -

What, specifically, is your Mac model?
MacBook Pro, but need the year it was released, processor speed, etc. This will determine if it *can* be upgraded further.

Oracle 11.2.0.4 order of upgrade discussion
Hi all:
We have Oracle DB 11.2.0.3 on IBM AIX (power system, os level 4, 64bit), need to upgrade it to 11.2.0.4 and apply CPUJAN2015 patch.
We already complete upgrade in UAT, and prepare for Prod in client site. UAT OS directory set up is: home_1 (11.2.0.3), home_2 (11.2.0.4).
Due to serious client's request, we need to keep 'home_1' always for latest oracle version, so need to rename home_2 to home_1 after upgrade. Client and us are discussing the 'order-of-upgrade' due to directory rename. Our approach is:
originally, server has 'home_1' 11.2.0.3 and 'home_2' . Take backup of 'home_1' oracle binaries, RMAN backup DB.
Start upgrade process -
1. install 11.2.0.4 to 'home_2'. [use guidelines in 11.2.0.4 oracle installation by OUI]
2. cd to 'home_2'/dbs, open DB by 'home_2/dbs/bin/sqlplus (sure we use correct configuration files like initSID.ora and tns files, etc):
sqlplus > startup upgrade;
>@catupgrad.sql; exit;
sqlplus > startup
>@utlu112s.sql; @catuppst.sql; @utlrp.sql;
3. shutdown/startup DB based on necessary
4. apply CPUJAN2015 patch. [use guidelines in README file in patch "p20132517_112040_aix64"]
5. shutdown/startup DB and listener based on necessary.
we rename 'home_1' (11.2.0.3) -> 'home_1bkup' (11.2.0.3), 'home_2' (11.2.0.4) -> 'home_1' (11.2.0.4). So next upgrade we'll install new version in 'home_2' again, and start same process. This way saves us from renaming many server scripts/application code which point to 'home_1'.
Our client suggested approach-
1) Backup database instance (RMAN) or (file copy when database is shutdown down) in 11.2.0.3.
2) Install 11.2.0.4 in HOME_2
3) Move HOME_2 to HOME_1 (the original home of 11.2.0.3)
4) Start up database instance in upgrade mode and upgrade the database to the 11.2.0.4
5) ( may need to do some shutdown startup to ensure it is working fine).
6) Completed?
7) Shutdown database instance
8) Move HOME_1 to HOME_2 (the original home of 11.2.0.4)
9) Oracle CPU patch apply
10) Move HOME_2 to HOME_1 (the original home of 11.2.0.3)
11) Start up database instance in and update cpu to the database
12) Backup database instance (RMAN) or (file copy when database is shutdown down) in 11.2.0.4.
This will ensure at all time, we are following Oracle’s ‘model’ upgrade path.
I feel step 8 & 10 moving is unnecessary, can't we stay the same oracle home, 'home_2' (11.2.0.4) in our approach, and apply CPU patch at DB? Client argues is 'for all time we following oracle's model upgrade path', what is 'model upgrade'? is any Doc ID for it? we don't want to unnecessary moving oracle home too many times - that is risky and many cause potention problem.
3rd enhanced approach we have so far -
1) Backup database instance & oracle binaries in 11.2.0.3 HOME_1 to 'HOME_1bkup'.
2) Install 11.2.0.4 in HOME_2
3) In HOME_2, start up database instance in upgrade mode, upgrade & apply CPU to database in our previous procedure.
4) ( may need to do some shutdown startup to ensure it is working fine).
5) Completed?
6) Shutdown database instance in HOME_2
7) Backup database instance (copy datafile over os) & oracle binaries in 11.2.0.4 HOME_2 to 'HOME_2bkup'.
8) Move HOME_2 to HOME_1
9) Start up database instance in HOME_1 (11.2.0.4).
This way has backups for 11.2.0.3 and 11.2.0.4.
Can anyone take a look and let us know any important error or missing steps in the above, especially the 3rd approach?
thank you very much!!Using new ORACLE_HOME is one of the best practice to reduce the downtime required for upgrade since new home can be created independent of actual downtime.
in other words, you can install new binaries in new home without impacting existing DB. During the upgrade, all you need to do is point the instance to new home and perform the DB upgrade. This method also helps in quick rollback since you have original ORACLE_HOME intact. One more benefit is that you don't need to take separate ORACLE_HOME backup since you already have everything.
There is no need of following this approach for CPU patching since it is very simple to rollback failed CPU patch.
Please remember, changing oracle_home directory might require you to do relinking so it is recommended to perform this on some non-prod system first.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,

Cannot uninstall windows powershell in order to upgrade from win2k3 ent x64 to win2k8 ent x64
I can't seem to uninstall windows powershell in order to upgrade my windows 2003 enterprise x64 server to win2k8 ent x64. It says...
You must make the following changes before upgrading Windows
Uninstall the following programs:
Windows PowerShell
I read if I uninstall kb926139 I will in essence uninstall powershell, however I'm being told in add/remove programs that the program cannot be removed, nor is windows powershell displayed as an installed application.Hi,
I suggest uninstalling SP2 first and then trying to uninstall Powershell.
If the issue persists, you may consider performing an In-Place Upgrade of Windows Server 2003 and then upgrade to Windows Server 2008.

I currently have OS X Leopard on a macbook. No where in the entire country that I live stocks Snow Leopard in order to upgrade. So can anyone tell me how I am supposed to upgrade to Lion without access to Snow Leopard first? arrrrgg! Thanks
If by "posted to you" you mean shipped, yes. Usually UPS or FedEx is used by Apple. Note that you may need to access the Online Store that's for your country. If you are not in the US then you cannot purchase it for shipment outside of the US. You can use this link to find the store that serves your country: Change Country. You will find it at the bottom of the Online Store page.

Can't uninstall HP Client security in order to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10
I have HP Probook 450 G2 and my Computer wants to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. But when it begins the upgrade process, I get the message, that 'HP Client Security manager' isn't compatible with Windows 10 and that it must be uninstalled. In order to uninstall it, I first must uninstall HP drive encryption. But to uninstall 'HP drive encryption' all partitions must be decrypted. I have two partition encrypted. hp drive encryption successfully decyrpted C partition with windows, but it can't decrypt H: partition (it has 60 GB data from my dropbox account). In Drive security it says H partition it's decyrpting, but there are no %. Only gray bar. It's been so for 5 days now. I tried to encrypt the H partition again and it did it in 1 second. After the reboot there was a sign Encrypted next to the partition lettter. I than again tried to decrypt H partition and it again won't do it. There' s only a gray bar without % and a sentence that partition is beeing decrypted next to the drive letter. I must decrypt this partition in order to uninstall 'HP drive encryption'. 'HP drive encryption' must be uninstaled in order to uninstall 'HP Client Securtiy Manager'. 'HP Client Securtiy Manager' must be uninstalled in order to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10.
Actually it's H partition that hp drive encryption is decrypting 5 days now (without % sign). I have only my dropbox data there. I could format that partition and downlad the data from dropbox again (it would take 1 day to download 60 GB of the data again from dropbox). D partition is HP recovery partition but I don't have any problems with it yet (i made a letter mistake in first post). I also made HP recovery media on USB stick. Will hp drive encryption automaticaly update the status of H partition from 'Decrypting' to 'decyrpted', if I format the H: partition? Will drive encyrption login window (WinMagic’s Pre-boot UEFI) (before the windows login) automatically be removed, if I format the H: partition? Will FilterBootOrder (FBO) variable automatically be removed, if I format the H: partition?I imagine this is automaticaly done via decrytion of all partitions/disk in HP client security (which doesn't work correct at my computer). Maybe afterwards the H: partition is formated and HP drive encryption status updated, I can then uninstall hp drive encryption and hp client security and install win10. This is another option.
