O/S Upgrade of Centos 6.9 to 7.4 server where smartdisk dedup is running

Any recommendations for this process?

  • You will want to stop the SmartDisk Services, and use the necessary Linux commands to ensure that the NVSD processes do not turn on on startup, then once the update is complete, start the NVSD services back up. I also would consider making a copy of the NVSD install directory as well, just in case. Move that folder to another server.
    The startup processes would be just like any other processes where you would likely have to make edits to the etc/init.d file.
