4.3 Updating and Rebooting
The bootROM, application executable, and configuration files can be updated auto-
matically via the centralized provisioning (boot server) model.
To automatically update:
1. Back-up old application and configuration files. The old configuration can be easily
restored by reverting to the back-up files.
2. Customize new configuration files or apply new or changed parameters to
the old configuration files. Differences between old and new versions of
configuration files are explained in the Release Notes which accompany
the software.Changes to site-wide configuration files such as ipmid.cfg
can be done manually, but a scripting tool is useful to change per-phone
configuration files.
3. Save the new configuration files and images (such as sip.ld) on the boot
server.
