Upgrading a system to newer releases
A software upgrade is to be performed when upgrading a system to a newer release.
Important! Upgrading to a newer release must be performed as follows:
• Upgrade to a new release,
• Wait until the network is stable,
• If the upgrade is not Ok, downgrade to old release, activate the old SW again.
• If the upgrade was Ok you can continue and for instance enable new features.
If you enable new features in the new release, and, in the worst case, have to
downgrade to a release that does not support the new features will result in NE
cannot restart.
