System upgrades
The platform supports upgrades for the delivery of new interim releases.
The installation or reinstallation provides the option to preserve the
customer installation parameters for upgrade purposes. You can upgrade
the complete platform including the operating system and Linux base
applications.
Nortel Linux base uses the CLI upgrade command to reinstall or upgrade
the base installation. Insert the Linux base installation CD is and invoke
the
upgrade command. You can choose to back up the data to a USB
device, to an SFTP server, or type q to exit the upgrade operation. For
more information about SFTP data back up, see
“Network configuration
for Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) data backup” (page 143) At the
beginning of reinstallation you can use the data stored in the USB device
or the SFTP server. After the base installation is complete, you can invoke
the
appinstall command to install applications from the application CD
or DVD .
The following application data is backed up during the Linux upgrade
process and is restorable when the applications are reinstalled:
•
Enterprise Common Manager data
•
Subscriber Manager security certificates and CND connection details
• Element Manager data
Note: You must logon as nortel to run the installation or upgrade
process.
Logging
Linux base supports syslog as the standard event logger.
Application-specific event logs are stored in directories created by the
application. See the application’s documentation for more information.
SNMP
Linux base supports standard server type Management Information
Base (MIB) II MIBs. Linux base does not generate SNMP alarms.
