an archive is in progress

We have an 8.0.0.0 cluster.  I was running through the upgrade guide for 8.0.0.1 and I got to the part about running the upgrade compatibility check.  When I run it (isi upgrade cluster assess /ifs/data/OneFS_8.0.0.1_Install.tar.gz) I get the following output - an archive is in progress, please try again later.

This cluster is solely used for a destination for synciq.  What is it referring to about an archive is in progress?  Is there a way to identify what the Isilon is doing.  It's said this for over 24 hours and you'd think the whatever it's doing would finish at some point, but apparently not.  Is there anyway to find out what this archive is and kill it if it's not critical?

    Hi rgcda,

    It sounds like you may have a SyncIQ job running. If you are working with RCM (Remote Change Management) they should have documentation on what that error message means for certain if it is not SyncIQ. You could open a Support ticket as well at https://support.emc.com/servicecenter/createSR for more assistance.

    If you wanted to check for running jobs, you can run the following command from the source cluster (not the destination cluster that you are upgrading):

    isi sync jobs view

    If you have any running jobs on the target cluster, you can either wait for them to complete or cancel the job using:

    isi sync jobs cancel

    You will want to replace with the name of the SyncIQ job you wish to cancel.

    Once that is done, you will want to temporarily disable the migration services to prevent a new job from starting. I believe the command is the same in 8.0:


    isi services -a isi_migrate disable

    Be sure to enable the services once the upgrade on the destination cluster is complete:

    isi services -a isi_migrate enable

    I opened a case but haven’t heard anything yet. There are no sync jobs running and this archive is in progress has been running for 24+ hours now.

    Thanks for your assistance.

    What was the issue here. I ran into similar issue. no running jobs. I get the following error:

    The upgrade system is busy processing another request: Operation now in progress

    Upgrade status: FAIL

    Current upgrade Activity is currently Archive

    Any idea? Do I clear the upgrade cluster archive?

    Hi

    check compatibility version for upgrade. If Gen6 only firmware 10 but if not gen6 only use version 9.

    If you need cancel and restart process :

    isi upgrade archive --clear

    after

    isi upgrade view

    isi upgrade nodes firmware progress list

    and

    isi upgrade cluster firmware start

    isi upgrade cluster firmware devices

    regards

    Yes

    Please check if your archive is in loop.

    Please run below command (multiple times) to check if your archive is in loop (changing its size from low-high-low).

    #ls -l /ifs/.ifsvar/upgrade/archive

    total 1955648

    -rw-rw--- 1 root wheel 58242 date upgradeArchive-dateZ.tgz
