Upgrading the GSS Software
To upgrade to a new software version, you must:
• Have access to the GSS download area of the Cisco software download site
and to Cisco.com.
• Be familiar with the proper procedure for updating your GSS devices and
know the CLI commands required to execute the backup.
To take full advantage of all of the features and capabilities of the software
release, Cisco recommends that you upgrade all GSS devices in your network
within the same time frame, starting with the primary GSSM. This upgrade
sequence ensures that the other GSS devices properly receive configuration
information from, and are able to send statistics to, the primary GSSM.
The GSS software upgrade requires that you complete the following procedures
in this order:
1. Verifying the GSSM Role in the GSS Network
2. Backing up and Archiving the Primary GSSM
3. Obtaining the Software Upgrade
4. Upgrading Your GSS Devices
