Preliminary Steps

Before you can begin the SDA upgrade, copy the upgrade files from your PC or local server to the DSC 8000.

The following SDA upgrade files are copied to the MGMT CPU:

• • INSTALL_flex.sh 
  • SDA_18_1_0_nbxxxxxxxx.tgz
    
    

To copy SDA upgrade files to the DSC 8000

1. Copy the SDA upgrade files to the root directory on the MGMT CPU.

   Command Example

   # scp ~/INSTALL_flex.sh root@10.91.0.130:/root/

   Tip

   Use the IP address of the active MGMT CPU in your DSC 8000 system when using the copy command.

2. Verify the SDA upgrade files are installed in the root directory.

   Command Example Output

   # pwd
   /root
   # ls -l
   
   total 220
   rw-rr-. 1 root root  8256 Mar  3 13:28 install.log.syslog
   rw-rr-. 1 root root 42663 Mar  3 13:29 install.log
   rw------. 1 root root 20746 Mar  3 13:29 anaconda-ks.cfg
   drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 Mar 17 15:40 software
   -rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 30885 Mar 17 15:40 INSTALL_flex.sh

3. Copy the SDA archive files to the software directory on the MGMT CPU.

   Command Example

   # scp ~/SDA_16_1_0_nb20170824.tgz root@10.91.0.130:/root/software/

   Note

   Create the /root/software folder if it does not already exist.

4. Verify the SDA archive files are installed in the software directory.

   Command Example Output

   # ls -l software
   
   total 89772
   rw-rr- 1 root root  1759225 Sep 10 15:40 SDA_16_1_0_nb20170824.tgz
