SOFTWARE UPDATE

For more information on the software update process, see

Software Commands

in the

Command-Line Reference section.

If your current software version is earlier than 2.2.0, do not use the steps in either this guide
or the ION Accelerator GUI Guide to update the software. Instead, refer to the current ION
Accelerator Release Notes
for the two-part update procedure.

To do a non-disruptive software update, follow the steps below (refer to the instructions for each
command for more details).

1. Obtain the ION Accelerator build file (

.iop

) from Fusion-io Customer Support.

2. Log in to each node that is to be updated, using the physical IP address of the node.

3. Copy the

.iop

file onto the local ION Accelerator node. To do this, run the following CLI

command (assuming an update to version 2.4.0):

soft:upload

This will place the

.iop

file under

/home/admin

.

4. To perform the update for the first node, run these commands:

soft:apply

5. Wait until the update is complete.
