Причина
Prior to upgrade, the maintenance window must be configured for at least 4 hours. This is required if the current PowerStoreOS is 3.0.0.0 or greater and less than 3.2.1.0.
This PUHC check is provided by the Heath Check thin package PowerStore-health_check-3.2.0.1-2015544 and later.
Разрешение
To perform the upgrade, enable the maintenance mode for four (4) hours or more. There is a 20 minute window to start NDU after maintenance window is enabled for 4 hours. If the upgrade is invoked after the 20 minute grace period, the maintenance window must be reset to 4 or more hours.
The four-hour maintenance window was chosen as a common maintenance period that covers most configurations. The actual NDU runtime varies based on the cluster configuration:
- The NDU for a single appliance PowerStoreT typically completes within 2 hours.
- The NDU for a single appliance PowerStoreX typically completes within 4 hours.
- The NDU for a multiappliance cluster may require more than 4 hours.
