we are trying to do OS upgrade the HSX from the existing 7.9 to 8.9 to be able to add additional new nodes (HSX ISO 3.2312)

 

we tried to upgrade the OS using the Command center and CLI both showing upgrade completes successfully however the OS version is still 7.9

 

i used the below reference for the OS upgrade operation.

Considering commvault documentaiton on adding nodes states “You must upgrade 2.x nodes to 3.x version at some point prior to June 30th, 2025.” it would be really useful to have this process available asap considering we are rapidly approaching only a year left to perform this task and I suspect it’s non trivial and will cause interruption to service - especially as doing upgrades to the OS on HSX node (without hedvig update) already requires taking the whole cluster offline.

When will the process to upgrade HyperScale X 2.x to 3.x be made available?

Hi @Nawras Haddadeen 

Upgrade from RHEL to Rocky has a different procedure. I would suggest to connect with the Account Team who can work internally on this.
