Updates using CAU
Updates on servers (that are part of cluster) happen through cluster update coordinator which is present on the same system where SCVMM server is installed. The updates are not staged and are applied immediately. Using Cluster Aware Update (CAU), you can minimize any disruption or server downtime enabling continuous availability of the workload. Hence, there is no impact to the service provided by the cluster group. For more information about CAU, see Cluster-Aware Updating Overview section at technet.microsoft.comtechnet.microsoft.com.
Before applying the updates on cluster update groups,
verify the following:
- Ensure that the enrolled user has administrator privileges for updating clusters through CAU feature.
- Connectivity to selected update source.
- Availability of failover clusters.
- Check for cluster update readiness and ensure that there are no major errors and warnings in the Cluster Readiness report for applying the CAU method. For more information about CAU, see Requirements and Best Practices for Cluster—aware Updating section at Technet.microsoft.com.
- Ensure that Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows 2016 or Windows 2019 operating system is installed on all failover cluster nodes to support the CAU feature.
- Configuration of automatic updates is not enabled to automatically install updates on any failover cluster node.
- Enable firewall rule that enables remote shutdown on each node in the failover cluster.
- Ensure that the cluster group has minimum of two nodes.
NOTE:
- For information about applying the updates, see Upgrading and downgrading firmware versions using run update method .
- For information about Dell EMC Repository Manager to download firmware and driver updates, go to Firmware and Driver update catalog for Dell EMC Solutions for Microsoft Azure Stack HCI page in dell.com\support and download the catalog file.
