Description of problem: ======================= Upgrade for RHEL http://10.34.3.139:8080/view/Ceph/job/doc-Red_Hat_Ceph_Storage-Installation_Guide_RHEL%20%28html-single%29/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/index.html In any Upgrade path we dont have to restart ceph on Admin node. so we can remove below line from Admin Node section :- 'sudo /etc/init.d/ceph restart' e.g. http://10.34.3.139:8080/view/Ceph/job/doc-Red_Hat_Ceph_Storage-Installation_Guide_RHEL%20%28html-single%29/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/index.html#upgrade-v131-to-v132-iso Under Admin Node "Finally, upgrade the admin node and restart Ceph: sudo yum update sudo /etc/init.d/ceph restart" we can replcae it with "Finally, upgrade the admin node . sudo yum update" Note:- Eventhough Admin node have OSD or MON process, restarting of that processe is being taken care in respective section.
