Removing software updates
You may find that you need to remove a software update that has been applied to the BCM50. Not
all software updates can be removed; whether a software update can be removed depends on the
the particular software update.
Removing a software update does not remove the software itself from the BCM50; it only returns
the software components of the software update to a previous software version. You must have
administrator privileges to remove a software update from the BCM50.
Removing a software patch or upgrade from the BCM50 is a service-affecting operation. All
services running on the system will be stopped. Consequently, Nortel recommends that you
schedule removal of updates for low-traffic periods.
If a software update is applied to a BCM50 and then removed, this information is displayed in the
Software Update History table. A removal operation is logged by the BCM50, but does not
generate an alarm condition.
