Cisco Cisco 3365 Mobility Services Engine Release Notes

There are four scenarios available to upgrade MSE to 7.4.120.0:

To upgrade from older releases to 7.4.120.0 without data migration, follow these steps:

Back up the existing database using the Prime Infrastructure. (We recommended this.)

All data existing on the system will be lost and a fresh blank database will be created. 

Transfer the *.tar file for 7.4.120.0 to the MSE appliance:

Place the file in the /opt/installers folder. You should manually FTP this file to the appliance.

Use binary mode for the transfer. Make sure that the downloaded file sizes are the same as those 
on Cisco.com.

Untar the file: tar -xvf CISCO-MSE-K9-7-4-121-0-64.bit-db.tar
This gives you the following:

5 files

4 zips

database_installer_part1of4.zip

database_installer_part20f4.zip

database_installer_part3of4.zip

database_installer_part4of4.zip

1 Cisco-MSE-L-K9-7-4-121-0-64bit.bin.gz

To decompress (unzip) the file, execute: gunzip CISCO-MSE-L-K9-7-4-121-0-0-64bit.bin.gz.

Enter the following command: 

Stop the MSE service using the following command:

Uninstall the existing MSE software. Choose deletion of database when prompted.

Invoke the MSE installer. 

Doing so installs the new database using the four .zip files for the database along with the MSE software.

Initial database installation can take a long time (20 minutes at least -or- approximately). Do not cancel 
the installer midway through the installation process.
