Upgrading and changing a CSS

[solerj]

We have two CSSs with HA enable, and we have a hardware problem in the active one.

I will change the CSS with a new one.

Can someone give me some instructions of how to do it:

- How to upgrade the new one to the correct version.

- How to upload the config to the new one.

- Activate the license

Are there some more necessary steps to make the change successful?

Thanks,

Jonathan

To upload the config do a 'copy ftp start' and then a reboot or a 'copy start run'

You will have to enter the new license before the config and after the upgrade.

Be aware that with the CSS11500 the license is linked to the mac address, so you need a new license for every CSS - you can't reuse an old one.
