If you are upgrading your system from a previously configured release, you do
not need to use the full system software. Instead, you can use the software
upgrade patch.

that will enable you to upgrade from 2.1.x to 2.1.4 (x = 0,1,2). To do this,
complete the following:
1. Login to your system Console port as Root.
2. Change to the root directory, using the following command:
cd /root
3. Create a directory, using the following command:
mkdir upgradepack-X.X.X-X
Where X.X.X-X, is the current software version. For this release X
sequence is 2.1.4-17
4. FTP or copy the file called cos-upgradepack-ocode-AZZZ-Y.Y.Y-Y-
X.X.X-X.shar.gz from your system Software CDROM or software
package to the /root/upgradepack-X.X.X-X.
5. Change the directory to upgradepack-X.X.X-X, using the
following command:
cd upgradepack-X.X.X-X
6. Enter the following command at the root prompt:
gzip –d upgradepack-ocode-AZZZ-Y.Y.Y-Y-X.X.X-X.shar.gz
