Upgrade Step Each step in the upgrade execution is displayed after it occurs:
1. disable maintenance: This prevents periodic maintenance from
interfering with the upgrade (similar to the
disable all
command).
2. save translation: save a copy of the current translation to the primary
MSS device
3. busyout standby processor: This busies out the standby SPE,
preventing spontaneous interchanges while the new software load is
booted on the standby processor. This also turns off memory
shadowing from active memory to the standby.
4. translation load and reboot standby: This causes the standby
processor to load the boot image and translation on its primary
device. The SPE remains standby, and starts running the Standby
Maintenance Monitor (SMM).
5. change memory shadow bounds: This adjusts the range of memory
transmitted from the active to the standby SPE to include only the
information pertaining to active calls so as to preserve stable calls
across the interchange.
6. release standby processor: This releases the standby SPE from
busyout, allowing resumption of handshake and memory shadowing,
with transfer of active call status to the standby.
7. refresh standby memory: The system waits for refresh to complete
and reports the result.
8. request an SPE interchange: An interchange is executed into the
standby SPE with the new load. If this step succeeds, the terminal is
logged off. Otherwise, a failure code is returned.
9. If the upgrade is successful,
Command successfully completed
is
not
displayed. Instead, the terminal is logged off the system and
must be logged in again.
Results Result of the execution of the corresponding step: PASS, FAIL, or
SKIPPED. SKIPPED occurs only for the save translation step when the
current version is newer than the version on the primary MSS device.
Error Code If a step fails, this field displays a code indicating the reason according
to Table 8-15
