Well what a fun few days its been. I’ve been on a mad mission to update our Cisco products, first I did Cisco ISE (I’ll try and blog about that later) and then Cisco Prime.
Here’s the Cisco Prime tac I took:
SSH to Prime
First thing first, backup Prime. In my case that was on the prime server in the default repo.
1 |
copy NAMEofBACKUP.tar.gz ftp://10.1.1.2/ |
Next now ftp the update the file to prime:
1 |
copy FTP://10.1.1.2/PI-Upgrade-31x_32x_33x_34x_to_3.7.0.0.159.tar.gz disk:/defaultRepo |
next check its there:
1 |
show repository defaultRepo |
Now update:
1 |
application upgrade PI-Upgrade-31x_32x_33x_34x_to_3.7.0.0.159.tar.gz defaultRepo |
Oh no ERROR:
1 |
ERROR : Please run the application upgrade from the system console to monitor upgrade progress. Use system monitor, serial terminal or a virtual console to initiate the upgrade. |
You have to open the VM console!!!!!!!
Try again!
1 |
application upgrade PI-Upgrade-31x_32x_33x_34x_to_3.7.0.0.159.tar.gz defaultRepo |
Ugh, its full. Delete the old backups
1 |
Delete disk://BACKUP.tar.gz defaultRepo |
Try again
1 |
application upgrade PI-Upgrade-31x_32x_33x_34x_to_3.7.0.0.159.tar.gz defaultRepo |
Arggggh now what, stop Prime….
1 |
Ncs stop |
Try again:
1 |
application upgrade PI-Upgrade-31x_32x_33x_34x_to_3.7.0.0.159.tar.gz defaultRepo |
Now its working!!
