Upgrading the Software File of a Video Device
You can quickly and easily perform remote software upgrades of video devices from SCOPIA
Management by uploading an upgrade file and applying it to the device.
Note
Perform the upgrade remotely using the SCOPIA Management. You cannot upgrade the
firmware of the gateway directly on the device.
Depending on your support contract, you can upgrade to:
•
The next major version.
Upgrading a major version requires a new license.
This kind of upgrade changes one of the first two digits in a version number. For example,
upgrading from version 8.0 to version 8.1 requires a new license.
•
An incremental version.
Upgrading an incremental version does not require a new license.
This kind of upgrade changes the third, fourth and fifth digits in the version number. For
example, upgrading from 8.0.0.34.0 to 8.0.0.36.1 or to 8.0.0.36.2 does not require a new
license.
Upgrades may require first applying the major upgrade and then the incremental upgrade
within that major version. For example, to upgrade from 8.0.0.38.2 to 8.1.0.0.1, first apply
the major upgrade to 8.1.0.0.0, and then the incremental upgrade to 8.1.0.0.1.
