Software Update
Files
The software update procedure requires the following files:
•
CPIO archive
is750-2.0.1.cpio
•
ZIP file
is750-update-v20.5.zip
The CPIO archive provides the software update image. This file is required
for all upgrade mechanisms.
The ZIP file is used to create a bootable USB key containing an HTTP
server. This file is not required when updating software via the Imagestore
web page on a running unit.
Update Methods
There are two possible mechanisms for upgrading the Imagestore 750:
•
Update via a bootable USB key that contains an HTTP server
•
Update via the Imagestore web page on a running unit
Update via Bootable USB Key
The bootable USB key upgrade method must be used when upgrading from
v1.14.x to v2.x software. It should also be used when a unit requires
initialisation or is not currently bootable.
The Software Update ZIP file is used to create a bootable USB key that
contains a HTTP server. This is done via the Imagestore web page as
described on page 259.
The CPIO archive file is then used to upgrade the connected Imagestore
when it is booted off the USB key created in the previous section.
