Hi Radhika, I have downloaded the PDF document, thank you very much.
I noted that there is no specific upgrade instruction from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0. What we have there is the generic upgrade instruction from 4.x.x to 4.2.0. I have actually tried to follow this instruction on my earlier (failed) upgrade attempt from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0, and found out that some of the steps are no longer applicable. For example: Step 6: Changes from /etc/cloud/management/components.xml to /etc/cloudstack/management/componentContext.xml is no longer required for upgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0, since we are already using /etc/cloudstack folder (instead of /etc/cloud folder) on 4.1.1. Step 8h: Uninstalling old cloud-* packages are not required for upgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0 (cloud-* packages do not exist). Step 10: (KVM Only): point a - Manually clean up /var/cache/cloudstack <-- I believe this is supposed to be done on the KVM hosts? There is no /var/cache/cloudstack folder on our KVM hosts running CloudStack agent version 4.1.1. I have verified on all my KVM hosts. Is this step required on the KVM hosts for upgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0? I found /var/cache/cloudstack folder on my CloudStack management server though. Is this step supposed to be done on the management server instead of the KVM hosts? If yes, it's not clearly mentioned. Step 12: When I tried to run the cloudstack-sysvmadm script to restart the system VMs, the script failed to run with some error messages. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to take down the error messages. Is this step required for upgrade from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0? If for some reason, we are not able to run the script, are we able to restart the system VMs manually (say from the CloudStack GUI)? Looking forward to your reply, thank you. Cheers.
