Platform Boot Loaders

The Communications Broker Release 5.0.0 platforms require a boot loader to load the operating system and software.

All Communications Broker Release 5.0.0 platforms require that the boot loader and the software image match per release. For example, if the software image file name is nnPCZ500.bz, use the corresponding boot loader file named nnPCZ500.boot.

Note:

Rename nnPCZ500.boot to bootloader before upgrading.

You can install the boot loader file as /boot/bootloader on the target system. You can also upload the boot file from the Web GUI using the Upgrade Software option. When you plan to upgrade the system image, upgrade the boot loader before booting the new system image.
