System upgrades

The platform supports upgrades for the delivery of new interim releases.

The installation or reinstallation provides the option to preserve the

customer installation parameters for upgrade purposes. You can upgrade

the complete platform including the operating system and Linux base

applications.

Nortel Linux base uses the CLI upgrade command to reinstall or upgrade

the base installation. Insert the Linux base installation CD is and invoke

the upgrade command. You can choose to back up the data to a USB

device, to an SFTP server, or type

q to exit the upgrade operation. For

more information about SFTP data back up, see “Network configuration

for Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) data backup” (page 143) At the

beginning of reinstallation you can use the data stored in the USB device

or the SFTP server. After the base installation is complete, you can invoke

the appinstall command to install applications from the application CD

or DVD .

The following application data is backed up during the Linux upgrade

process and is restorable when the applications are reinstalled:

• Enterprise Common Manager data

• Subscriber Manager security certificates and CND connection details

•

Element Manager data

Note: You must logon as nortel to run the installation or upgrade

process.

Logging

Linux base supports syslog as the standard event logger.

Application-specific event logs are stored in directories created by the

application. See the application’s documentation for more information.

SNMP

Base (MIB) II MIBs. Linux base does not generate SNMP alarms.
