Platinum Firmware Upgrades

To invoke this option from the web interface, select “Firmware” from the
“Tools” menu and then click the

button. From the resulting

screen, press the

button. Watch the screen for

any error messages and then reboot the unit to complete the process.

Note: Certain upgrades (depending on the initial version number)
make it difficult or impossible to reboot the system via the web

interface. In these cases, the system can be rebooted from the
command line (with the reboot command) or by power-cycling.

To perform this action from the command line, invoke the upgrade script with

the argument ­­force­factory­settings:

eam999 ~ # upgrade --force-factory-settings

Watch the screen for any error messages and then reboot the unit to complete

the process.

Upgrade logs

The upgrade process stores all progress and error messages in the file
/var/log/upgrade.log. If you suspect that there has been a problem with

an upgrade or you wish to have full details of what has changed, you can
inspect this file by issuing the command

eam999 ~ # less /var/log/upgrade.log

You can scroll forward through the file simply by pressing the

key. For more control, you can move forward and

backwards, line by line, with the

and

keys or, page by page, with the

and

keys.

The

key should be used to return to the command line.

If you wish to obtain a copy of this log file, it can be copied from the system to

an external computer either via the serial port (see section 11.3.1.4 on page
157) or over the network (see section 11.3.1.2 on page 152).
