Note: All upgrade paths prior to 8.5(2) will REQUIRE the installation of a COP. The COP file will deliver functionality to (a) allow the upgrade path to be supported and (b) provide user experience enhancements. These capabilities are being delivered in a phased approach. The Phase I COP file will simply allow the upgrade path to be supported. Initially, upgrades from 8.5 will NOT require a COP file. The Phase II COP file delivers Refresh Upgrade User Experience Enhancements and was made available with AC2. Throughout AC3, we will deliver updates to the Phase II COP that will also deliver Refresh Upgrade User Experience Enhancements for the remaining upgrade paths. Refresh Upgrade is initiated in the same manner as previous upgrades. Refresh Upgrade (RU) is very different from the standard Upgrade (L2) from a user experience standpoint User improvements, i.e. enhancements to the GUI and CLI, are delivered via the Refresh Upgrade COP, which is mandatory. The following is what you will experience during a Refresh Upgrade - Initiate upgrade in typical manner - Phase 1: Data export - Phase 2: System reboots, installs rhel5, reboots, and install applications - Phase 3: Data import - The upgrade is complete and services will be started. - Note: Monitor the console for progress during the Refresh Upgrade.
