MCP core software load Maintenance Release installation 89

sudo ./mcpCopyFromESD.pl -m manifest-online

8Copy the ASU files.

sudo ./mcpCopyFromESD.pl -m manifest-asu-pc

9Remove the ISO image file from the file system. rm /var/mcp/esd_files/<filename>

10Delete older MCP loads.

Nortel recommends to only keep the current MCP software load and the load that the system will be upgraded to in the /var/mcp/loads directory to free up disk space.

cd /var/mcp/loads

rm –Rf <old_load_directory>

Attention: Use extreme caution when using rm -Rf commands. Entering a typo can cause an entire file system to be removed without confirmation if you have the proper user privileges. For example, entering a command such as rm -Rf / mcp/loads (with an extra space after the first forward slash) can remove the entire directory tree.

11Repeat this procedure for the secondary System Manager.
