Establish a Download Sequence
Introduction
The order in which you download new software allows you to verify that the
download is successful before proceeding. Follow these guidelines to establish an
order in which to download the new software. The method that you follow depends
on the type of sessions that the modulator carries (xOD/VOD sessions or broadcast
sessions).
CAUTION:
If you are downloading new software to more than one GoQAM modulator
If you are downloading new software to more than one GoQAM modulator
group, download the software to one modulator group (for example, all
modulators in a single rack or hub) and verify its functionality before
attempting to download software to another modulator group. Verifying the
functionality of one modulator group at a time enables you to better isolate
any failures that may occur and enables you to minimize service interruptions.
xOD/VOD Sessions
When upgrading modulators that carry xOD or VOD sessions, we suggest that you
upgrade all modulators in one hub and verify the functionality of those modulators

the modulator carrying the most sessions.
Broadcast Sessions
When upgrading modulators that carry broadcast sessions, upgrade the modulators
in one hub, four modulators at a time, and verify their functionality before
proceeding to other modulators in the hub.
