Will WebNS 7.5 auto fallback if new code failed to boot?

Hi,
I'm preparing for WebNs upgrade from 7.4 to 7.5 to 8.2
And change will be done remotely.
My question is, what will happen if the new code doesn't boot up after we reboot the CSS?
Will it auto fall back to the previous working code?
Thank you.

Hello,
Good to see your going to 8.20 software.
I can't say for sure whether or not your CSS will fall back to the original image, although my suspicion is that it will not.  I will assume that your CSS is in a redundant configuration consisting of a pair of CSS.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.  You can alway upgrade the standby CSS, and make sure if boots up OK on the new code.  Then you can fail over to it, while you upgrade the second CSS.  This way, you would always be upgrading the standby CSS, so traffic should not be impacted, even in the event of a boot failure.  Then you can recover the standby that didn't boot properly while the master CSS is safely handling production traffic.
Also, I would recommend using the upgrade script rather than the manual upgrade process, especially if you have any custom user accounts and/or custom scripted probes.  Another good idea as a backup plan is to temporarily (or permanently) arrange for console access to the two CSS during the upgrade process, just in case it is needed, as you are doing the upgrade remotely.

  • If I buy Mountain Lion now, will Apple refund me later since my redemption code failed?

    This is not our problem. It is Apple's problem and why do we need to wait extra time for new codes? We have been waiting long enough. They should just let us buy the new OS and refund us later after verifying our codes.

    Yes, you can resume or entirely restart your download later by going to the "Purchased" tab in the App store application.

  • [PPC] new install fails to boot: root partition not found

    Hi,
    new ArchPPC installation on a iMac G3. It does not boot further than initramfs because root partition is not found. I get something like:
    Root device /dev/sda4 doesn't exist
    Attempting to created it
    ERROR: unable to determine major/minor number of root device /dev/sda4
    then I get a dropbox recovery console but keyboard doesn't work.
    I chroot in the installed system to change mkinicpio pata hook to ide, regenerated initramfs but that didn't help.
    Any guidance to diagnose and solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, sorry I just realized you replied to my thread.
    I don't have my mac at the moment, but I must have done something like :
    - boot the live CD
    - get the output of lsmod
    - copy this output to mkinitcpio.conf (the one that's on your HD), remove the autodetect hook
    - chroot into your HD setup
    - regenerate initramfs
    - update yaboot (is this really mandatory?)
    - exit chroot and reboot.

  • New install fails to boot

    I am having a problem with a new install of arch. The boot goes normally showing all the text as the kernel starts up and stuff but then then stops at the line
    [<c140b0d7>] i386_start_kernel +0xd7/0xdf19f/0x74/0x50 #1sk!c13c7f441 0f 84 cc
    I really don't know why it's hanging. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

    If you haven't put too much work into your install yet, I would just reinstall. You can also boot into a live cd, chroot, and reinstall the kernel (pacman -S kernel26).

  • No auto-detection of new projects in Workspace? Only Import possible?

    I got the project sources for a new project from a friend. I extracted all the stuff in a subfolder of the Workspace of FlexBuilder
    and expected that FlexBuilder will automatically recognize this new project and add it to the Flex navigator.
    But this was not the case.
    Is there really no auto-detection of new projects in Workspace?
    Even no "refresh" or "Scan Workspace"?
    The only way I found is an explicit "import".
    Correct?

    As far as I know, I don't think so, it's because the way Eclipse works, you know these so-called workspaces, for these Eclipse generates a lot of files for instance to keep track of changes in your files, so in a case you make a mistake and messed up with your code you could compare what you did wrong with local history, or for example to remember what files you left open in your last session and so on.

  • Why do podcasts no longer auto-delete in new v10.6.3.25 on Dell laptop Win7 despite menu settings

    Why do podcasts no longer auto-delete in new v10.6.3.25 on Dell laptop Win7 despite menu settings?
    tks

    Found the error and posted a blog post here: http://www.red-abstract.com/blog/2009/11/19/itunes-90-and-auto-deleting-podcasts .html
    The issue is that Apple put this behind another layer of configuration on the podcasts screen. Go to that screen and click "Settings." You will see there that you can configure the podcasts individually or set the defaults to remove played episodes. Only after setting this will iTunes honor to auto-delete.

  • The screen of my ipod broke so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store

    the screen of my ipod cracked so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store but we still got the case of the ipod from the first day we cant find the receit though

    1) you can get a replacement one, though you might have to pay the out of warranty price for the device (normal iPod touch 4th gen 8g = $99)
    2) If you don't have the iPod itself, its is highly unlikely they'll replace it since you won't be handing the original over (since its in your locker)

  • Auto Creation of new requisitions based on a list of items

    Auto Creation of new requisitions based on a list of items
    We are starting discussions to determine how we could auto-create requisitions based on a list of servers in order to perform periodic health checks. 
    One approach we thought about was creating one service request that could spawn multiple requests, again based on a list and using a set schedule (weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly, etc.)
    Has anyone implemented this and can provide some guidance/tips?

    You can check this article for more references on how to use sp_helptext object_name stored procedure:

    I also suggest trying commercial tools to sync and compare the stored procedures between two databases. We used

  • I broke my screen on my iphone and now the phone wont turn on, if I have insurance will it cover the cost of a new iphone?

    I broke my phone about two months ago and now it won't turn on because I believe there is internal damage. If I bought the insurance when buying the phone will I be able to get a new phone for free?

    You would have to find that out from where you purchased the insurance. Most insurance policies that are sold for cellular phones have a deductible. Only that insurance carrier can answer those questions for you. Look up the papers that you got when you purchased the insurance.
