Explanation: Smart Center Upgrade on Secure Platform R54, R55 and Later Versions Upgrading to NGX R60 over a Secure Platform operating system requires updating both operating system and software products installed. Secure Platform users should follow the relevant Secure Platform upgrade process. The process described in this section will result with an upgrade of all components (Operating System and software packages) in a single upgrade process. No further upgrades are required. Refer to NGX R60 Secure Platform Guide for additional information. If a situation arises in which a revert to your previous configuration is required refer to “Revert to your Previous Deployment” on page 52 for detailed information. Using a CD ROM The following steps depict how to upgrade Secure Platform R54 and later versions using a CD ROM drive. 1 Log into Secure Platform (Expert mode is not necessary). 2 Apply the Secure Platform NGX R60 upgrade package: # patch add cd. 3 At this point you will be asked to verify the MD5 checksum. 4 Answer the following question: Do you want to create a backup image for automatic revert? Yes/No If you select Yes, a Safe Upgrade will be performed. Safe Upgrade automatically takes a snapshot of the entire system so that the entire system (operating system and installed products) can be restored if something goes wrong during the Upgrade process (for example, hardware incompatibility). If the Upgrade process detects a malfunction, it will automatically revert to the Safe Upgrade image. When the Upgrade process is complete, upon reboot you will be given the option to manually choose to start the Secure Platform operating system using the upgraded version image or using the image prior to the Upgrade process.
