Procedure 9-27 To schedule a software upgrade
Perform this procedure to schedule a device software upgrade on one or more managed
NEs according to a software upgrade policy and a 5620 SAM schedule. See Procedure 9-1
for information about creating a software upgrade policy. See the 5620 SAM User Guide
for information about creating schedules.
Note — The 5620 SAM performs the upgrade according to the
configuration in the software upgrade policy that is assigned to the NE.
Note — A new SAM scheduled task is shut down by default and must be
turned up before it can be executed with one exception: scheduled
software upgrade tasks associated with all NE types are automatically
enabled by default.
