Appendix A Upgrading Your CSS Software
Upgrading Your CSS Software
This section includes the following topics:
• Using the Upgrade Script
• Manually Upgrading the CSS Software
Using the Upgrade Script
The upgrade script allows you to upgrade your CSS without having to enter any
CLI commands. There are two ways to run the script:
• Automatically Running the Upgrade Script
• Interactively Using the Upgrade Script
If the upgrade script fails while upgrading the CSS to the same version of software
that is currently running, the CSS software directory will be incomplete. To
reinstall the software, you must upgrade the CSS manually (that is, use FTP to
transfer the .adi to the CSS and perform a manual unpack).
Automatically Running the Upgrade Script
You can run the upgrade script to perform the software upgrade without having to
enter any information. The script automatically:
• Checks to see how many installed software versions are installed on the CSS.
You can install a maximum of two software versions on the CSS. If the CSS
contains the maximum number of installed software versions, the script
deletes an older version.
Note The script does not prompt you to delete a version of software that
you configured as the primary or secondary boot file. On a disk-based
system, you may need to quit and then deselect the primary or
secondary boot file before continuing with the upgrade.
• Archives the running configuration to the startup configuration.
• Copies the new ADI to the CSS boot-image directory.
• Unpacks the new ADI.
