Error Message when installing 13.0HF3
This isn't a question, just a solution/FYI because I couldn't find this issue when searching DevCentral for (Failure testing installer update status in /shared/images/) on VCMP. I ran into an issue when attempting to upgrade from 13.0HF2 to 13.0HF3 on my vCMP guest. The 13.0 ISO installed correctly to an empty boot location. However, I got an error message when I attempted to install Hotfix3 on that same partition. There's a bug ID for this (665725) and no fix yet, but the workaround is to restart the lind process on the guest. [notmylogin@notmyguestname-f5-prod:/S1-green-P:ForcedOffline:Disconnected] ~ clsh bigstart restart lind This allowed me to continue the software installation without issue. Hope that helps.
Failed Hotfix update
Hi, Just tried to apply Hotfix-BIGIP-13.0.0.2.0.1671-HF2 to existing 13.0.0.0.0.1645 volume - HD1.3. Result was failed with info below: tail -f /var/log/liveinstall.log info: /: Not enough free space info: 268609536 bytes required info: 226794496 bytes available info: /var/local/ucs/config.ucs: Not enough free disk space to install! info: Operation aborted. info: >---- info: Removing boot loader reference Terminal error: UCS application failed; unknown cause. *** Live install end at 2017/05/22 09:39:59: failed (return code 2) *** So I mounted /var from HD1.3 with mount -t ext3 /dev/mapper/vg--db--sda-set.3._var /mnt/tmp_root Then I did df -h with result: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg--db--sda-set.3._var 3.0G 1.3G 1.6G 45% /mnt/tmp_root Seems like there is plenty of space on /var so why the error? Is there a way to increase size of directories of not active volume (like when using tmsh modify /sys disk directory /shared new-size for active volume)? Side question I did fresh hotfix install on new volume HD1.4, then used GUI Boot Locations to select it with Install Configuration: No After reboot my whole config was copied to new volume - why so? My db.liveinstall are like that (I doubt I was changing them from defaults) tmsh list sys db liveinstall.* one-line sys db liveinstall.checksig { value "disable" } sys db liveinstall.longmode { value "enable" } sys db liveinstall.moveconfig { value "enable" } sys db liveinstall.movelicense { value "enable" } sys db liveinstall.packageset { value "default" } sys db liveinstall.saveconfig { value "enable" } sys db liveinstall.savelicense { value "enable" } Piotr
