Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software

Downgrading the Main Software Version via TFTP from the CLI

When returning to a previous Main S/W version, it is recommended to use the configuration file that was created using the previous version. If a snapshot was not taken with the previous version, a configuration file was automatically taken for you and stored in flash after downloading and rebooting the module with the latest Main S/W version. This file is called "oldconfiguration.X.Y.Z where X.Y.Z is the Main Software version.

To return to a previous version you need to perform the following:

1Change the main image that will be run on the next reboot by using the flash default command:

Command:

M15-155s8:/>flash default <filename>

Example

M15-155s8:/>flash default m770ATM.2.0.16

Parameter:

<filename>

The name of the image that the M770 ATM Switch will

 

 

next run.

2Restore the appropriate configuration file (the one that was used with the version changed in step 1 above), by typing the following:

Command:

M15-155s8:/>/>flash config <filename>

Example

M15-155s8:/>flash config oldconfiguration.1.2.14

Parameters:

<filename>

The name of the configuration file that you wish to

 

 

activate

3After changing the configuration file and main image on each of the modules in the M770 ATM switch, reboot the switch using the system reboot switch command to run the previous version.

Note: It is recommended that all modules in the M770 ATM switch use the same software version. To check which software is currently running on the ATM module, use the command version.

Note: If a new configurarion file and S/W Main Image is changed at the same time, a file called oldconfiguration.unknown will be saved in Flash memory on reboot of this module.
