COMMANDS
update<xml file>
This command is used to update the config file that ccsd is working with
while the cluster is operational (i.e. online). Run this on a single
machine to update all instances of ccsd across the cluster.
If you are using 'cman' as your cluster manager, you will also need to
run cman_tool version -r <new version number> once the update is
complete. Failure to do so will result in new nodes (or nodes rejoining
after a failure) not being allowed
to join the working set due to version number mismatches.
upgrade<location>
This command is used to upgrade an old CCS format archive to the new
xml format. <location> is the location of the old archive,
which can be either a block device archive or a file archive. The
converted configuration will be printed to stdout.
