Ugrade pre-check from 5.x to 6.x failed -> Unsupported bootloader detected (grub v1) -
Descrição
I wanted to upgrade my SPS from 5.x to 6.x following the upgrade guide, meeting all the requirements via supported upgrade path. The upgrade was not allowed. The following error message is show:Firmware upgrade test failed. Do not upgrade.Unsupported bootloader detected (grub v1). Upgrading to this version is not supported. -
Causa
The root cause originates in old version of boot loader of originally installed version 3.x, which came with grub v1 at that time. This component (as well as file-system layout) was not upgraded via standard upgrade process. New SPS 6.0 does not support grub v1 any longer. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to safely and easily replace the bootloader. If it was possible, the upgrade would have taken care of it. The only way to go is fresh install and restore the configuration and the data. -
Resolução
To solve this, OI recommend to take full data and system configuration backups, install a new instance of SPS, and restore back the configuration and data on newly installed system. This will result in having a fresh SPS without the legacy compatibility issues. If you are running a virtual appliance, the whole procedure will be safer as you can benefit from taking snapshots your appliance and revert back if anything goes sideways.In a nutshell, the steps you need to take are following:1. Make sure you have all your data and system configuration backed up. It is still strongly advised to double check all connection policies to have valid backups. Please follow the administration guide and configure all necessary backups.2. Stop the old SPS3. Install and start new VM with SPS on the same version4. Follow the restore procedure described in SPS Administration Guide5. Make sure all data is restored and available6. Make sure the appliance works exactly as before7. Proceed with upgrade to 6LTS -
