6.3.1.2.3 Restoring the Software Version Using the Build Directory
The current and all previously installed software builds are stored in the iPAM400 build directory
(/dva/builds/). Thus this directory is selected for restoring a software build when required, for example
when a software update is not successful.
This option enables the software to be restored either remotely or locally.
To Restore an iPAM400 Software Version:
1. Run the Setup Tool as follows, if not already running.
a. Connect to the iPAM400 either remotely or locally, as described in Section “6.2 Connecting to
the iPAM400” (page 59).
b. Run the Setup Tool by entering the following command: /dva/bin/vipet_setup
2. Choose the “Update software” from the main menu by entering “2”.
3. Choose the “Builds directory” from the update software menu by entering “1”
4. A list of all software build files (*.tar.bz2) available in the build directory will be shown.
5. Choose the required software build by entering its option number.
6. Wait a moment for the update to occur.
7. The current menu options will be shown for further selections.
8. It is possible to restore the previous installed software by repeating this procedure for the previously
installed software build. You can also do this by using a USB memory stick (“6.3.1.2.1 Updating or
Restoring the Software Version Using a USB Memory Stick”, page 66), or the iPAM400 RAM Disk
(“6.3.1.2.2 Updating or Restoring the Software Version Using the RAM Disk”, page 67).
9. If no further tasks are to be performed, then return to the main menu (if not already done) and enter
“X” to exit the Setup Tool.
