Upgrading the System Software Using the Safe Upgrade 
and Rollback Features
Upgrading 
from Software 
to a UP While 
an RP is 
Operational 
(Rollback)
Newer versions than 2.1 and greater allow you to install the system software 
to a UP while an RP is operational. This is done using /usr/os/sbin/install-cos. 
Install-cos can install to either part 1 or 2 of the disk. You can run install-cos 
while the system is booted from the install server or the system is running off 
the disk.
!
CAUTION:
Caution: Reboot into the UP first, making sure the UP is working, then 
upgrade within the UP, leaving the good RP alone.
To install to the UP of your system while the system is running with the RP:
1.
Enter the following command:
/usr/os/sbin/install-cos -p 2 <release directory>
2.
Manually configure the UP identically to the RP (System configuration 
and applications).
3.
Switch to the RP and upgrade the RP.
4.
If upgrades work correctly you are done. If, however, the upgrades fail, 
reboot the system. By default the system boots with the functional UP.
