Performing Other Software Update Actions
This section addresses maintenance activities which may be required once the NE is
operating with the desired NCU software and module firmware.
These sections are addressed:
“Reverting to the Previous Software Release” on p.628
“Updating Modules with Encryption” on p.628
“Updating HD Module Firmware” on p.630
“Updating a Module” on p.631
“Updating Modules of the Same Type” on p.632
Reverting to the Previous Software Release
You can revert to the previous software release after a software release update, if the
standby database has not changed.
If another software release has been installed or the standby database has been
changed, reverting to the previous software release may not be possible or changes can
be lost.
This procedure describes how to revert to the previous software release, using the
database saved at the time of the last software activation.
Requirements
• You must be logged on with an ADMINprivilege level account.
• The previous software release must be available in the NCU standby area.
Step 1 Activate the software as described in “Activating Software” on p.623, select
Standby for the Database Activation.
The contents of the standby area must be the former NCU software release
and database.
Step 2 If necessary, downgrade the individual firmware packages for the relevant
modules/module types, as described in “Transferring and Activating Firmware
on All Modules” on p.625.
Updating Modules with Encryption
Firmware updates for encryption modules are distributed separately from standard
software release. Modules with encryption are only supported in software releases 10.3
and higher.
To update encryption module firmware, execute the following procedures in the
designated order:
