shh upgrade on Cluster environment

[Rajendra-]

Hi all,

We will be upgrading Secure shell on HP-UX 11.11version. It auto reboots after swinstall completes

As this server is on a cluster environment (2 node cluster)
and has other applications & packages running on it & also NFS mounted LVM

I need step by step procedure for above upgrade

Thanks in advance

Rajendra

HP-UX SecureShell will not autoboot after installation.
Simple do an swinstall..
There are 2 points to mention:
- Sometimes the installation procedure does not restart sshd after installation, so this needs to be done manually with
/sbin/init.d/secsh stop; /sbin/init.d/secsh start .
You can do this while beeing logged in via ssh, you will not kicked/killed.
- In a cluster environment you should keep the ssh hostkeys on all nodes in sync. If you already done that, no extra step is necessary.
If not, copy /opt/ssh/etc/ssh_host* from one node to all others and restart sshd accordingly.
Make sure you notify the users about possible ssh "error" messages and check scripts.

My 2 cents,
Armin
