Install or upgrade additional products with IUF

This procedure is used to accomplish either of the following:

  • Initial installation of additional HPE Cray EX software products on an HPE Cray EX system on which CSM is already installed.
  • Upgrade of additional HPE Cray EX software products when CSM itself is not being upgraded.

This procedure is not used to perform an upgrade of CSM and additional HPE Cray EX software products. See Upgrade CSM and additional products with IUF for that procedure.

All stages of iuf are executed in this procedure. All of the new product software provided in the recipe release is deployed and all management NCNs and managed compute and application nodes are rebooted to new images and CFS configurations. Manual operations are documented for procedures that are not currently managed by IUF.

The initial install workflow comprises the following procedures. The diagram shows the workflow and the steps below it provide detailed instructions which must be executed in the order shown.
