Hello,

You can do a backup that you store in a safe place . You keep all the old nso install file in your environment. You install your new NSO version then stop the old nso version and start NSO using the newer version. It depend on your CDB size it can time .If something fails it means that NSO is not started so you have to just to start NSO again using the OLD version.

ncs-backup will help you to do a backup and also restore.

Here some link that might help you Version Upgrade & Upgrading . Check the Recover from Failed Upgrade in the upgrading link everthing is explained
