This guide provides step-by-step instructions for upgrading a Digital Broadband 
Delivery System (DBDS) to System Release (SR) 2.8.2/3.8.2/4.3.2. Sites that use this 
guide to upgrade must currently support DNCS version 4.3.0.14 later software.  

 
 

This upgrade to SR 2.8.2/3.8.2/4.3.2 is accomplished through the following set of 
CDs: 

 

DNCS 4.3.2.x 

 

DNCS WUI/GUI 4.3.2.x 

 

Application Server 3.6.2.x 

The upgrade to SR 2.8.2/3.8.2/4.3.2 is to be completed from within a maintenance 
window that usually begins at midnight. Upgrade engineers have determined that a 
typical site can be upgraded within one maintenance window. The maintenance 
window should begin when you stop system components in Chapter 2. 

Interactive services will not be available during the maintenance window. 

This guide is written for field service engineers and system operators who are 
responsible for upgrading an existing DBDS to SR 2.8.2/3.8.2/4.3.2.  

Please review this entire guide before beginning the installation. If you are 
uncomfortable with any of the procedures, contact Cisco Services at 1-866-787-3866. 

Important:  Complete all of the procedures in this guide in the order in which they 
are presented. Failure to follow all of the instructions may lead to undesirable 
results.
