Applications Ware Part No. T0001-42, Rev C October, 2002 Page 4 of 103 Software Upgrade Options Introduction If you are upgrading the software in your network, do not skip releases. You must upgrade to each intermediate release to ensure the integrity of your configuration memory (CMEM). This upgrade procedure applies to all Vanguard products. Upgrade your software by using the step-by-step upgrade option or use the Software Upgrader application. Both upgrade options are listed below. Step by Step Software Upgrade The step by step software upgrade is the traditional way to upgrade Vanguide devices. The process requires you to step though loading each individual release of Applications Ware, update the CMEM configuration file, and then continue through to the desired final release of the Application Ware. Assuming that you want to upgrade your network software from Release 5.4 to Release 6.1.R000, you must follow this example: Step 1 2 3 4 Upgrade From Release 5.4 (Including any 5.4 point releases) 5.5 (Including any 5.5 point releases) 5.6 (Including any 5.6 point releases) 6.0.R00A (Including any 6.0 point releases) To Release 5.5 5.6.R000 6.0.R00A 6.1.R000 Note The Vanguard 7300 Series can be upgraded from 5.4 to Release 6.1.R000 without loading 5.5 and 5.6. Vanguard 7300 Series: Step 7300 Series Upgrade From Release To Release 1 5.4.P0LB 6.0.R00A (Last 7300 Series Release before 6.0.R00A) 2 5.4.P0LB 6.1.R000 (Last 7300 Series Release before 6.0.R00A) & 6.0.R00A (Including any 6.0 point releases) Software Upgrader Application The Software Upgrader is a Window-based PC application that eliminates the release-by-release upgrade process, by converting an existing image file to the latest Application Ware release in a single step. Once you have an upgraded image, use the Software Loader to load the image into your Vanguards's CMEM. The goal of the software is to bring your networks up to the most current versions of Applications Ware. You can quickly upgrade all the node's records with minimum downtime.
