> - how to upgrade your SAN without dropping your system
Trivially simple, really. Before you start assure that all FC paths are
active. Then do the SAN upgrade. You get some 'path missing' errors at
worst as each of the nodes restarts. Nothing goes down. It has always
been that way for any IBM i supported SAN.
> - How to put PTF's, OS upgrades, etc on your target box
Also simple: Shut down the PowerHA bits (Don't need to stop
replication!) do PTFs/upgrades etc, restart PowerHA bits.
Usually we do the target first then flip then do the source and then
flip back.
Wanna know the best part? The SANs continue replication while you do the
PTFs and / or OS UPgrade!!! So you're not even behind when you're done.
Try THAT with MIMIX and friends!
