version on the running server.
On the running server and on the down server, enter this command:
vcx-showversion
b If the down server is running an earlier software version than the
running server, download the appropriate software upgrade file to the
/opt/installtemp
directory on the down server.
The location of the software upgrade file depends on 3Com’s service
delivery methods and on the customer network configuration.
Software upgrade file names begin with the software version and end in
a
.tar

section assume that you need to upgrade to VCX 6.0.2c.

cd /opt/installtemp
tar xvf vcx-dataserver-6.0.2c
cd upgrade-6_0_2c
./install-upgrade
