Cloudera Enterprise 5.15.x | Other versions

Before Upgrading to the Latest Release of CDH

  Note:
  • The instructions in this section assume you are upgrading a multi-node cluster. If you are running a pseudo-distributed (single-machine) cluster, Cloudera recommends that you copy your data from the cluster, remove the old CDH release, install Hadoop from CDH 5, and then restore your data.

Troubleshooting: Upgrading hadoop-kms from 5.2.x and 5.3.x Releases on SLES

This section describes issues that affect SLES upgrades from 5.2.x releases earlier than 5.2.4, and from 5.3.x releases earlier than 5.3.2.

Problem

The problem occurs when you try to upgrade the hadoop-kms package, for example:

Installing: hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.2+801-1.cdh5.3.2.p0.224.sles11 [error]
12:54:19 Installation of hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.2+801-1.cdh5.3.2.p0.224.sles11 failed:
12:54:19 (with --nodeps --force) Error: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: warning: /var/cache/zypp/packages/cdh/RPMS/x86_64/hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.2+801-1.cdh5.3.2.p0.224.sles11.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e8f86acd
12:54:19 error: %postun(hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.1+791-1.cdh5.3.1.p0.17.sles11.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
12:54:19 
  Note:
  • The hadoop-kms package is not installed automatically with CDH, so you encounter this error only if you are explicitly upgrading an existing version of KMS.
  • The examples in this section show an upgrade from CDH 5.3.x; the 5.2.x case looks very similar.

What to Do

If you see an error similar to the one in the example above, proceed as follows:
  1. Abort or ignore the error (either option works):
    Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i] (a): i
  2. Perform cleanup:
    1. # rpm -qa hadoop-kms
      You will see two versions of hadoop-kms; for example:
      hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.1+791-1.cdh5.3.1.p0.17.sles11
      hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.2+801-1.cdh5.3.2.p0.224.sles11
    2. Remove the older version, in this example hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.1+791-1.cdh5.3.1.p0.17.sles11:
       # rpm -e --noscripts hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.1+791-1.cdh5.3.1.p0.17.sles11
      
  3. Verify that the older version of the package has been removed:
    # rpm -qa hadoop-kms
    You should now see only the newer package:
    hadoop-kms-2.5.0+cdh5.3.2+801-1.cdh5.3.2.p0.224.sles11
