Appendix A Upgrading Your CSS Software

Upgrading Your CSS

Using the Upgrade Script

The upgrade script allows you to upgrade your CSS without having to enter any CLI commands. There are two ways to run the script:

•Automatically Running the Upgrade Script

•Interactively Using the Upgrade Script

Note If the upgrade script fails while upgrading the CSS to the same version of software that is currently running, the CSS software directory will be incomplete. To reinstall the software, you must upgrade the CSS manually (that is, FTP the .adi file to the CSS and perform a manual unpack).

Automatically Running the Upgrade Script

You can run the upgrade script to perform the software upgrade without having to enter any information. The script automatically:

•Checks to see how many installed software versions are installed on the CSS. If there are two installed versions (the maximum), the script deletes an older version.

Note The script will not offer to delete a version that you have configured as the primary or secondary boot file. On a flash disk-based system, you may need to quit and then deselect the primary or secondary boot file before continuing with the upgrade.

•Archives the running configuration to the startup configuration.

•Copies the new ADI to the CSS boot-image directory.

•Unpacks the new ADI.

•Sets the primary boot-file to the new ADI.

•Reboots the CSS.
