ERROR: Can only add or remove nodes with update_vertica, use install_vertica instead

We tried to upgrade a 4-node cluster from 6.1.0 to 6.1.2 using the upgrade instructions here (p. 74). https://my.vertica.com/docs/6.1.x/PDF/HP_Vertica_6.1.x_InstallGuide.pdf We upgraded the rpm (rpm -Uvh vertica-6.1.2-0.x86_64.RHEL5.rpm), but when we ran the update_vertica script (using the options from the original install, as instructed), we got the following error message: /opt/vertica/sbin]# ./update_vertica -S default -r /tmp/vertica/vertica-6.1.2-0.x86_64.RHEL5.rpm -s xxxxx01,xxxxx02,xxxxx03,xxxxx04 -u vertica ERROR: Can only add or remove nodes with update_vertica, use install_vertica instead I also see that update_vertica is a soft link to install_vertica. Should we just run the install_vertica script?

    You can use install_vertica or just remove everything after the small "-s" For example # ./update_vertica -S default -r /tmp/vertica/vertica-6.1.2-0.x86_64.RHEL5.rpm
