Upgrade Checklist

Before upgrading the Oracle Communications Subscriber-Aware Load Balancer software:

  1. Obtain the name and location of the target software image file from either Oracle Software Delivery Cloud, https://edelivery.oracle.com/, or My Oracle Support, https://support.oracle.com, as applicable.
  2. Provision platforms with the Oracle Communications Subscriber-Aware Load Balancer image file in the boot parameters.

  3. Note:

    Do not run the check-upgrade-readiness command on a vSLB running versions SCZ920p8, SCZ920p9, SCZ920p10. For these versions, this command can adversely impact vSLB operation.
    Run the check-upgrade-readiness command and examine its output for any recommendations or requirements prior to upgrade.
  4. Verify the integrity of your configuration using the ACLI verify-config command.
  5. Back up a well-working configuration. Name the file descriptively so you can fall back to this configuration easily.
  6. Refer to the Oracle Communications Subscriber-Aware Load Balancer Release Notes for any caveats involving software upgrades.
