Upgrade process 2.2 to 2.3 in vCloud Usage Meter?

[TChitwood]

I saw a post a couple of weeks ago that an upgrade package was on the way.  Is there an expected availability date yet?  We are currently using 2.2, is it Ok if we wait until the upgrade is available rather than install an new appliance?

We are looking to run the updated migrator with one or two more Usage Meter users prior to release. Anybody available in the next few hours?

Bryan,

I know Bric is PDT time.

If you want to do this earlier, I'm online at 9 am EDT tomorrow.  If you want to do this, PM me and we can try to sync up.

Cheers,

Hi,

Is an updated migration script available?

I am seeing this issue upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3.2. When trying to migrate the 2.2 database, the process hangs after displaying "Migrating samples". I see the following in the postgresql log.

2012-06-13 16:35:39 EDT usage_meter_db postgres ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "idxc72a0c4d"

2012-06-13 16:35:39 EDT usage_meter_db postgres STATEMENT:  insert into "Vm" ("id", "instanceUuid", "reportExclusionReason", "moref", "cpuCount", "vcName", "hostId", "vcServerId", "nicCount", "guestFullName", "ipV4Address", "guestHostName") values (nextval('"s_Vm_id"'),$1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10,$11) RETURNING "id"

I reverted back to 2.2 to avoid missing data collection, but need to get upgraded to 2.3 before our next reporting period.

Thanks

Can you get a support case started and Private Message me the ID number?  I'll see if we can get someone to work with you that way.

When will there be an updated migration script available?

We've had the same issue as lazyllama and wwimberly. We need to migrate to 2.3.2 and our old data samples are not showing up.

Any solution to this out yet?

Really need to get it upgraded ASAP.

[IamTHEvilONE]

andersch,

If you get a support case going, they should have access to the most current version of the upgrade utilities.

There were some issues in migrating 2.2 data to 2.3.2, but most were ironed out.

However, as a precaution, we usually snapshot the VM when powered off ... then power up and upgrade ... if it works, that's great ... if not, we can quickly revert without missing sample intervals.

Best Regards,

Jon Hemming

Hello,

I had the same issue and for me the problem was solved with this KB:

Best regards.

Excellent! Worked for me too.
