NOTICE
1. Patch upgrades cannot be performed in BootROM.
2. V3 upgrades are not recommended. If there are such requirements, contact Huawei
engineers.
3. Before rolling V500R001C50 and later versions back to earlier versions, run the set
system-software check-mode all command in the system view. Directly roll other
versions back to earlier ones.
4. In V500R001C30, api call-home host and api call-home connect commands are used in
the API view to configure call-home. In V500R001C50, these commands are used in the
system view. If you save the configuration in V500R001C50 and then roll back the system
to V500R001C30, the two commands are lost. In this case, you must manually add the two
commands after rollback.
Note the following items for patch upgrades:
l After activating the patch and setting the startup configuration file, ensure that the patch is
in activated state when the reboot or reboot fast command is used to restart the system.
Otherwise, the system restart may fail.
l If the patch is mistakenly deleted and the system restart fails after the startup configuration
file is set, you must re-activate the patch and restart the system again. For a high-end
firewall with dual MPUs, check whether the patch status of both MPUs is normal. If not,
delete the patch and then install and activate it again.
