3. Press Enter to submit the schedule.
If you set the Schedule Download field to n, the download starts as soon as you submit
the schedule.
Note:
Note: If you are scheduling firmware downloads for a circuit pack that is designated as
primary/secondary sync (timing) source (for example, TN464GP/HP), this
procedure automatically redesignates a local timing source during the download.
After the download is complete and the circuit pack is returned to service, the
procedure designates the original circuit pack as the timing source.
Note:
Note: The target circuit packs are automatically removed from service while the
firmware is downloaded to them and automatically returned to service after the
download is completed. While a circuit pack is removed from service, any active
calls through that circuit pack are dropped.
Note:
Note: An error message asking you to use the command, test firmware download,
means that there was a problem with a previous firmware download. Run the test
before proceeding. Go to Testing firmware download
on page 246.
