Note: Activating the unpacked software upgrade package
may cause the command line interface (CLI) software to be
upgraded as well. Therefore, you will be logged out of the
system, and will have to log in again. Wait until the

login

prompt appears. This may take up to 2 minutes, depending
on your type of hardware platform and whether the system
reboots.

After having logged in again, verify the new software
version:

In this example, version 7.0.1 is now operational and will survive
a reboot of the system, while the software version previously
indicated as permanent is marked as old.

Note: If you encounter serious problems while running the
new software version, you can revert to the previous software
version (now indicated as old). To do this, activate the
software version indicated as old. When you log in again
after having activated the old software version, its status is
indicated as current for a short while. After about one minute,
when the system has performed the necessary health checks,
the current status is changed to permanent.
