Solaris Installation Checklists
PowerPath Checklist
Existing Solaris Server and New Storage
System
Tasks highlighted with grey in the checklist should be performed
before the service provider arrives, except for the removal of ATF or
CDE, which you can have done by EMC Professional Services.
CAUTION
!
EMC no longer supports ATF or CDE. Before you transition your
server from ATF or CDE to PowerPath, you must
Back up your server configurations.
Back up data on all storage systems connected to the server.
Remove ATF or CDE, which EMC recommends that EMC
Professional Services do, especially if your server configuration
is complex. If you want to remove it yourself, you must use the
procedure in the Removing ATF or CDE Software Before
Installing Other Failover Software document (P/N 069001173),
which is on the Powerlink website with this roadmap.
Simply removing ATF or CDE using the uninstall procedure in
the Solaris ATF administrator’s guide or the Solaris utilities
administrator’s guide may not return the server to it original
state, and may result in lost data.
