Information
The patch filename includes the FTOS version, the platform, the cpu, and the process it
affects (FTOS-platform-cpu-process-patchversion.rtp). For example, a patch labeled
7.8.1.0-EH-rp2-l2mgr-1.rtp identifies that this patch applies to FTOS version 7.8.1.0 - E-Series
platform, for RP2, addressing the layer 2 management process, and this is the first version of
this patch.
There is no need to reload or reboot the system when the patch is inserted. The In-Service
Modular patch replaces the existing process code. Once installation is complete, the system
executes the patch code as though it was always there.

e
Enable a process to be restarted. Restartablility is subject to a maximum restart limit — the
limit is defined as a configured amount of restarts within a configured amount of time. On the
software exception that exceeds the limit, the system reloads (for systems with a single RPM)
or fails over (for systems with dual RPMs).
