Make sure that on all Domain Management Servers, none of the required daemons (FWM, FWD, CPD, and CPCA) are in the state "down" (the "pnd" state is acceptable):

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstat

If some of the required daemons on a Domain Management Server are in the state "down", wait for 5-10 minutes, restart that Domain Management Server and check again. Run these three commands:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstop_customer <IP Address or Name of Domain Management Server>

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstart_customer <IP Address or Name of Domain Management Server>

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstat

5

Go to the main MDS context:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsenv

6

Upgrade the attributes of all managed objects in all Domain Management Servers at once:

[Expert@MDS:0]# $MDSDIR/scripts/mds_fix_cmas_clms_version -c ALL

Notes:

• Because the command prompts you for a 'yes/no' for each Domain and each object in the Domain, you can explicitly provide the 'yes' answer to all questions with this command:

  [Expert@MDS:0]# yes | $MDSDIR/scripts/mds_fix_cmas_clms_version -c ALL

• You can perform this action on one Multi-Domain Server at a time with this command:

  [Expert@MDS:0]# $MDSDIR/scripts/mds_fix_cmas_clms_version -c ALL -n <Name of Multi-Domain Server>

Allow the database synchronization to run:

[Expert@MDS:0]# $CPDIR/bin/cpprod_util CPPROD_SetValue "FW1/6.0" AfterUpgradeDbsyncIndication 1 1 0

Restart the Check Point services:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstop
