Still remember the days of CQ upgradation version 7.0.1.8. Late night, with my co-worker and while doing the error message of gskbat and then we solved that with IBM..good memories.. After i left company and joined back, again a big upgradation.. Where she handled alone with the same upgradation and it failed and IBM too cant able to help at that moment and they didnt find the root cause of the issue too.. Again the same upgradation and surely knew issue would come. IBM too ready to attack when issue pops up and they agreed to have a p1 ticket for upgradation that means round the clock support until the issue get resolved. All teams involved like oracle to take backup of DB and unix team to take backup of file system and fallback mechanism if in case upgrade failed. All ready and the day has finally came.
We decided to start the activity by 7. We fixed time by 10PM and i slept early and set alarm for 5:30AM. i got up at 12:30 AM thought of time up and for every 1 hr i got up and checked. Atleast i slept but this girl didnt even sleep for whole night. DB team completed the backup on time. Unix team not yet confirmed the backup. She sent a remainder by 4 30 AM. No response. Called the helpline and tracked. At last they sent a mail by 5:30AM.
I took bath, had tea and started by 6 30AM. I knew for sure, out of work, cant able to take breakfast. So thought of to buy good day biscuit near by office but no shops opened by that time. Parked vehicle and walked to lift, there she also entered at same time. Both went in to start the process. There only she said she didnt sleep for whole night and vomitted too for having mango late night. Naughty girl, she usually do like this. In spite of cold, she came with head bath.
At 7 AM, we started shutting down the application and started uninstallation of existing version. Uninstall finished at 8 and then we started the installation of base version and that finished by 9 30. Then the next step of applying patch is the one which failed last time. In test server that goes for 1 1/2 hrs. So we decided to put that patch and wait with fingers crossed for 1.30 hrs. we executed command and went for a coffee break to canteen. Took boost and back to seat to watch in parallel.
After some half hr, command finished with no error. YES patch upgraded successfully in short time. Excited and happy, shouted :)
Started testing for some half hr. Actually we planned a lot to do if patch upgraded successfully. But out of lazy we simply passed time. At 1 30 we started for lunch. Went to saravana bhavan near by. She said that she cant take anything except juice. I too thought of to take light. we ordered 2 butter naan + panner gravey + 1 lemon juice and 1 coffee. At 2 30 we back to seat and did some post upgrade work. At last we found a bug too and fixed. she fully fainted out of tiredness. we decided to leave.
At 4 30 started from office and dropped her at near by signal. After a long time this upgrade made me remember the past work.
