v 9.4.5 to v 10.2.0 upgrade

Hi guys,

 

 

I am in the middle of upgrade process where I am upgrading from 9.4.5 to 10.2.0 (partitions to volumes).

 

There are two partitions HD1.1 and HD1.2, HD1.2 being active. Below are the steps I followed.

 

 

1. Created the necessary UCS, bigip.licence, etc... backups.

 

2. Copied the 10.2.0 iso file to the /shared/images. Ran the command

 

image2disk --instslot=HD1.1 --format=volumes BIGIP-10.2.0.1707.0.iso and presented with this error.

 

Unknown option: format

 

image2disk -h - Does not show the format option.

 

3. Since I am upgrading from 9.4.x version I tried copying the new installation utility using the command

 

im BIGIP-10.2.0.1707.0.iso

 

info: ....

 

info: ....

 

The im utility is no longer used to upgrade software images.

 

Please use 'image2disk'. For help, use 'image2disk -h'.

 

You must always install to an image location that is not in use.

 

Here is your current image-location status:

 

Unexpected error. See log (/var/log/user.log)

 

HD1.1 active no default no title BIG-IP 9.4.5 Build 1049.10

 

HD1.2 active yes default yes title BIG-IP 9.4.5 Build 1049.10

 

 

/var/log/user.log reads:

 

----

 

debug: new temp mount dir /mnt/n95FcOxKVP created for hda.dat.boot

 

ERROR (24320): executing command: /sbin/vgscan

 

++++ result:

 

vgscan -- LVM driver/module not loaded?

Any inputs on this?

 

 

Thanks,
