Appendix A Upgrading Your CSS Software Upgrading Your CSS Software Interactively Using the Upgrade Script The upgrade script allows you to enter information and make selections by responding to prompts as it runs. Before the script performs the upgrade, it prompts you to: • Remove ADIs from the CSS if the script detects two installed versions on a hard disk-based system or on a Flash disk-based system • Enter the version of the new ADI • Set the primary boot-file to the new ADI • Reboot the CSS with the ADI you are installing after the upgrade is done • Archive the running configuration to the startup configuration The script automatically copies the scripts and user profiles from the older CSS software to the new software. The copied scripts do not include Cisco-supplied scripts except default-profile. To use the interactive version of the script: 1. Log in to the CSS. 2. Copy any changes in your current user profile to the scripts directory. During the upgrade, the upgrade script copies the contents of this directory including user profiles into the script directory of the new software image. To copy any changes to your current user profile to the scripts directory, use the save_profile alias command. For example, enter: # save_profile 3. Rename any Cisco-supplied scripts that you changed. The upgrade script does not overwrite the Cisco-supplied scripts in the script directory of the new software image with the changed versions of the scripts, except the default-profile script. If an old script has the same name as a Cisco-supplied script but its contents differ, the following message appears: script_name differs between images If the upgrade script detects differences between the old version of the default-profile script and the new version, it renames the new version as default-profile.new and copies the old version into the script directory of the new software image.
