Well its general way how you upgrade a VM. Below are the steps. Please note you cannot upgrade only the rpowermt CLI as EMC does not release a standalone version of RTOOLS for Sles.
Also, your lockbox will be preserved while upgrading.
Procedure:
· Download the latest vApp 1.1 ISO image from EMC Support web site.
· Copy the ISO image into a Datastore using vSphere Client.
· Map the ISO to the VM’s CD ROM. Select device status as Connected.
On the VMware Studio Web interface.
· Use the URL https:// :5480 to access VMware studio interface.
· Log into the interface and navigated to update tab -> setting tab
· Under Update repository section selected “Use CDROM updates” and saved the setting.
· Navigate -> status,
· Click “Check Updates”
· It gives a message update available. [If the ISO is attached of higher version]
· Click “Install Updates”
· Start upgrade process.
· Reboot the Appliance after the upgrade is complete
Please consider moving this question as-is (no need to recreate) to the proper forum for maximum visibility. Questions written to the users' own "Discussions" space don't get the same amount of attention and can go unanswered for a long time.
You can do so by selecting "Move" under ACTIONS along the upper-right. Then search for and select: "PowerPath".
It is new enough where I haven't had a chance to review (just released this past Friday), but I'll assume there is nothing mentioned in the Installation and Administration Guide? Regardless, let's see what others suggest once relocated.
