Intel 1520 User Manual

Chapter 5 Using the Command-Line Interface

Regardless of the type of upgrade, that is, application, patch, or OS/
application, each upgrade requires two files, which you must copy into the 
correct directory on the FTP server:

upgrade_info

<upgrade_name>.tar.gz

▼ Starting the upgrade from the appliance side

Start the command line interface.

Go to 

root > main > version > install

Enter the following information in the fields provided:

✔

IP address or hostname of FTP server

✔

Path to upgrade files

✔

Username on FTP server

✔

User password on FTP server

Press Ctrl-X to begin upgrading. A message will appear, 

Checking FTP 

Site...

 as the appliance connects to the FTP server and retrieves the 

upgrade_info

 file. Next, the CLI displays the type of upgrade (APP, 

PATCH, or OS), and a message describing the upgrade. You will see a 
warning that an OS upgrade later requires you to swap the primary and 
secondary drives.

Press Ctrl-X to proceed or Escape to abort. If you select Proceed, the 
upgrade continues, following the procedure for that upgrade type as 
explained in the corresponding section below.

After you press Ctrl-X to proceed, the CLI displays this message:

Ftp’ing Application Upgrade. Please Wait...

The server transfers the application upgrade file 

tar.gz

 (approximately 26 

MB). When the transfer is complete, the CLI displays this message:

Upgrade Will Take 4-6 Minutes. Please Wait...

Once the upgrade is complete, the system automatically reboots. The CLI 
displays this message:

Final Message: Upgrade Complete.

Intel (r) NetStructure (tm) 1520 Cache is rebooting.

Please wait 2-3 minutes for an active console login.

After the system has finished rebooting, follow the procedures in Starting the 
system for the first time in chapter 2.
