    Hello,

    I did offline HACMP(PowerHA) upgrade 5.4.1 to 5.5 - basically stopped HACMP services and upgraded cluster.* filesets.
    Tried to start services again - topsvcs refused to start on second node complaining that node instance numbers are different - and indeed they are different.

    This is standard situation or something went wrong ?
    What should I do - make instance numbers identical manually ?

    thanks,
    Vilius

    it can be software bug. I never used HA 5.5 but all migrations I did from 5.4.0 and 5.4.1 to 6.1.x went fine so you can consider to chose 6.1 instead of 5.5 if you can.
