Upgrade Guide

This document describes upgrading ConVirt installations to ConVirt Enterprise.

Contents

1.1 Overview

The ConVirt allows in-place upgrade of you management infrastructure. This does not involve shutting down your virtual machines and other components. Only management features would be not available during the upgrade.


Here are broad steps.

  • Download latest version of ConVirt Enterprise software.
  • Shutdown ConVirt Management Server (CMS)
  • Backup your current environment.
    • Backup code
    • Bakcup ConVirt repository
    • Backup ConVirt configuration
  • Upgrade Code
  • Upgrade ConVirt repository
  • Upgrade Data
  • Upgrade ConVirt configuration
  • Miscellaneous
  • Start CMS
  • Login and refresh the browser


1.2 Upgrading to latest 3.x version of ConVirt

Use this method to upgrade to latest version of ConVirt.

This can also be used by customer upgrading from 2.x version to latest 3.x version once the following prerequisites are met.
For you to be able to upgrade from 2.x to 3.x version, you need to have purchased 3.x license from our sales team. Only following upgrade paths are available for upgrading from 2.x to 3.x. If you are on one of the older version of the 2.x produce, please upgrade it to the required version. Depending on the size of the environment, the upgrade might take few hours, so please plan accordingly. The upgrade does not involve shutting down your virtual machines and other components. Only management features would be not available during the upgrade.

If you are upgrading 2.x version to another 2.x version, use one of the other sections to do multi-step upgrade.


  • Initialize Variable
 export DT_TIME=`date +"%d-%b-%Y_%H_%M"`
 export FROM_VER=<fill this out properly, It is displayed near the Convirture logo on top left. Just use the trailing version numbers e.g. 3.3.9 >
 export TO_VER=<fill this out properly, It is part of the tarball name you are trying to install>
 export CONVIRT_BASE=~
 export CONVIRT_DIR=$CONVIRT_BASE/convirt-enterprise
 export TG_ROOT=$CONVIRT_DIR/tg2env
 export DT_TIME=`date +"%d-%b-%Y_%H_%M"`

  • Download latest version of ConVirt
 DOWNLOAD_DIR=~/downloads/${DT_TIME}
 mkdir -p ${DOWNLOAD_DIR}
 cd ${DOWNLOAD_DIR}
# Download the latest tarball. (Version 3.3.1 or later) # untar the tarball. tar -xzf convirt-enterprise-${TO_VER}-*.tar.gz
  • Shutdown CMS
 cd ${CONVIRT_DIR}
 ./convirt-ctl stop
  • Backup code
 BACKUP_DIR=~/BACKUP_${DT_TIME}
 mkdir -p ${BACKUP_DIR}
 cp -r ${CONVIRT_DIR} $BACKUP_DIR
  • Backup repository

The ConVirt repository is a mysql database. The default name of the database is convirt_ee. In case you have changed the name from default, you can find the name of the database in src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini. Look for sqlalchemy.url entry. The format of this entry is as follows:

 sqlalchemy.url=mysql://USER:PASSWORD@MYSQL_HOST:MYSQL_PORT/DBNAME?charset=utf8

Backup Command :

 mysqldump -u<dbuser> -p <dbname>  >  <dbname_date>.sql
 e.g. mysqldump -u root –p convirt_ee  > ${BACKUP_DIR}/"convirt_ee_${DT_TIME}.sql"
 NOTE : You will be prompted for password.
  • Backup configuration
 cp ${CONVIRT_DIR}/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini ${CONVIRT_DIR}/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini.working
 cp ${CONVIRT_DIR}/license.txt ${CONVIRT_DIR}/license.txt.working
  • Check if you have convirt-enterprise/upgrade/VERSION.TXT

If you see one, proceed to next step. i.e. Upgrade the code, otherwise


Extract only upgrade/create_version.pyc from the recently downloaded convirt-enterprise-<version>.tar.gz in to convirt-enterprise/upgrade directory.

   cd ${CONVIRT_BASE}
   tar -xvf ${DOWNLOAD_DIR}/convirt-enterprise-${TO_VER}.tar.gz convirt-enterprise/upgrade/create_version.pyc

Run create_version.pyc from the upgrade directory

   cd upgrade; python ./create_version.pyc

Check the newly create convirt-enterprise/upgrade/VERSION.TXT Verify version info for all components is that of current version i.e. ${FROM_VER}.


  • Upgrade the code
tar -xvf $DOWNLOAD_DIR/convirt-enterprise-${TO_VER}.tar.gz -C $CONVIRT_BASE
# Save default configuration file from new version.
cp $CONVIRT_DIR/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini $CONVIRT_DIR/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini.$TO_VER.default
# Restore working copy of license and configuration.
cp $CONVIRT_DIR/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini.working $CONVIRT_DIR/src/convirt/web/convirt/development.ini
cp $CONVIRT_DIR/license.txt.working $CONVIRT_DIR/license.txt
NOTE : For users upgrading from 2.x to 3.x copy the new license file given by Support. 
 
  • Install dependencies

(You can skip this section, if you are already on 3.2.1 and higher i.e ${FROM_VER} >= 3.2.1 )

 source $TG_ROOT/bin/activate
 easy_install boto
 easy_install netaddr
 easy_install suds
 easy_install PyYAML 
##Create dir .psphere mkdir -p ~/.psphere

Create a new file ~/.psphere/config.yaml with the following content

 general:
        template_dir: ~/.psphere/templates/
 logging:
        destination: ~/.psphere/psphere.log
        level: WARN # DEBUG, INFO, etc
  • Tweak MySQL

Starting version 3.3.5, ConVirt needs the following added to the mysql configuration file, typically /etc/my.cnf NOTE: You will need root or sudo access to make these changes.

  • Stop mysql server
   sudo service mysql stop or /etc/init.d/mysql stop
  • Add following line to /etc/mysql/my.cnf in [mysqld] section. !!IMPORTANT!! This entry must be in [mysqld] section
   transaction-isolation = READ-COMMITTED
  • Start mysql server
   sudo service mysql start or /etc/init.d/mysql start


  • Run the upgrade script
source ${TG_ROOT}/bin/activate
cd ${CONVIRT_DIR}/upgrade
python upgrade.pyc <dbtype> <dbname> <dbuser> <dbpassword>
Example: python upgrade.pyc mysql convirt_ee root convirt
deactivate
 After the upgrade, VERSION.TXT should have the version that you upgraded to ($TO_VER)  for all components.
 Bug: Upgrading to version 3.3.2 leaves DATA_VERSION to 3.3.1 (This is known issue and can be ignored.)


  • Start CMS
 cd ${CONVIRT_DIR}
 ./convirt-ctl start


  • Refresh Browser
 Launch new browser.
 Login and Refresh the browser. (shift+F5, shift+ refresh)
 This is required so new versions of javascripts gets loaded
 Refresh once on the Login page, you should see the latest ConVirt version.
 Once you login, then you will have to Refresh again, this will refresh the javascripts and the header 
 to show the latest version.
  • Recovery in case of an error.
 Recover Code
 mv ${CONVIRT_DIR} ${CONVIRT_DIR}.upgrade_failed
 cp -r ${BACKUP_DIR}/convirt-enterprise ${CONVIRT_BASE}
 Recover Repository
 a. Rename the database convirt_ee if you have space.
    rename database convirt_ee convirt_ee_upgrade_failed
 b. create an empty database named convirt_ee 
    create database convirt_ee
 c. Restore it from backup
    mysql -u root -p convirt_ee  < ${BACKUP_DIR}/"convirt_ee_${DT_TIME}.sql"    ## sql file created in "Backup Repository" step.
