SnapCreator 4.1.0 migration from 3.6.0 to 4.1.0

volker_albrecht — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:44:07 GMT

Hello,

I tried to migrate our SnapCreator from 3.6.0 to 4.1.0. Installation works, but the update of the GUI fails with this error:

java -jar snapcreator.jar -upgrade

Upgrade Started...

Hello,

ok, now the upgrade works, but the snapcreator dosen´t work ☹

I start this command:

/usr/local/scServer4.1.0 # ./snapcreator --server --port 8443 --user admin –passwd ****** --profile list --verbose

Then only this line appears on the screen:

NetApp Snap Creator Framework 4.1.0 Configurations ##########

and then nothing….

In the logs are no messages….

Re: SnapCreator 4.1.0 migration from 3.6.0 to 4.1.0

spinks — Fri, 07 Feb 2014 12:55:21 GMT

Volker,

Did you copy over your profiles and configuration files?

Snap Creator is running and reporting back that you don't have any profiles to list.

If I run the same command in my environment I get a list of all of the profiles and configuration files.

Be sure that you copied the profile directory into:

/path/to/scServer4.1.0/engine/configs

3.6 did not have the "engine" subdirectory and the configs were just under the scServer directory. If you put them there then Snap Creator will not know about them.

Hope this helps!

John

Hello,

yes, I´ve copied the config files in the directory configs in this path /usr/local/scServer4.1.0/engine. From the GUI, I can see all the files, but from CLI the command dosen´t came back.

Hi,

I tried with the server name and IP-adress, the result is the same, no output. From the GUI, I can see all config files and I can create new profiles. With CLI, I can do nothing. The SnapCreator server process is running.
