Re: in 7.3 to 7.31 upgrade the step PREP_INITS/SCANDIR_UPG1 is in running status but doing nothing looking hung .

Hi Yogesh,

Are you using any NFS mounted paths for the upgrade .

If yes, you need to make the path local and then perform the upgrade.

NFS paths may have issues with read/write and will make upgrade slower.

Hope this helps.
