Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computer system for copying, at a new node, reservation metadata volumes of an old node. While a software upgrade is in progress, volume reservation command processing may be enabled on both the new node and the old node when copying is complete. Separate logic may be run to process a volume reservation command of the volume reservation command processing. The old node may be switched to a primary mode, wherein the new node may be switched to a secondary mode to synchronize volume reservation metadata with a primary copy. When the software upgrade is complete, the new node may be switched to a single mode to use only a volume reservation database of the new node.
