• In the event that a spare CPU cannot be updated because of the above restriction, the
CPU will have to be upgraded on a standalone chassis that is not resident on the
fielded system or be returned to the factory for upgrading.
• It is NOT possible to update a spare Hub Master CPU while the fielded system's Hub
Master is still installed, because two Hub Masters in the same domain will cause IP
and DHCP interference on the network. The only way to update the software on a
spare Hub Master CPU in a fielded system is to unplug the Ethernet cable from the
original Hub Master CPU and plug that cable into the spare Hub Master CPU. When
the upgrade of the spare Hub Master CPU is complete, the Ethernet cable can be
plugged back into the original Hub Master CPU.
Note: It is highly recommended that spare CPU’s not slated for immediate installation are
upgraded in a dedicated chassis in a depot or warehouse environment.
5 MIB EXTRACTION
The following procedure outlines the process for extracting the MIB’s needed to update the
NMS after a software update:
• Once the software upgrade is complete, FTP to one of the updated CPUs, logging in as
username = operator and password = operate.
• Change to the MIB directory by entering: cd /usr/share/mibs/transcept/
• Extract/get all of the MIB text files located there by entering: mget TRANSCEPT-
*.txt, answering yes to each prompt.
• Extracting the MIB’s in this fashion will ensure that the correct and compatible
versions of all of MIB’s are compiled into the NMS.
Alternatively, the MIB’s can all be extracted in the form of a tarball by executing the following
steps:
• FTP to one of the updated CPUs, logging in as username = operator and password =
operate.
• Change to the directory containing the Digivance CXD MIB’s directory by entering:
cd /usr/share/mibs/
Bundle and zip all the MIB’s into a tarball and extract them by entering: get transcept.tar.gz.
