Upgrading Both Physical Machines In a Running System

Prerequisite: Before you upgrade to new physical machines, see Physical Machine Hardware Maintenance Restrictions.

To upgrade to new physical machines

  1. Upgrade everRun software if required to support the new PM. See the appropriate everRun Release Notes and The Upgrade Kits Page.
  2. Upgrade the first PM; see Replacing Physical Machines, Motherboards, NICs, or RAID Controllers.
  3. Repeat for the second PM. The everRun software then migrates the VMs to the other PM.
  4. If you added additional NIC ports, see Network Architecture.
