Firmware Upgrade Limitations and Notes
- Firmware upgrade plan is available for devices with current firmware version of 7.5.x and above.
- Firmware upgrade plan will cause downtime to the devices that are being upgraded.
- Full backup of the system is recommended prior to the upgrade.
- Make sure there is enough free space in the encrypted and temporary file systems, each file system with at least the size of the upgrade file.
- This system does not provide rollback functionality. Please use DataPower's web-gui to rollback the firmware if needed.
- Any special characters at the end of the firmware version string will be ignored (for example, 7.5.2.1zz will be treated as 7.5.2.1). This means that upgrading from version 7.5.2.1zz to version 7.5.2.1 will not be allowed, because they will be considered as the same version.
- The firmware upgrade process does not support DataPower on Docker or on any other Linux packaging (scrypt only files).
- Bi-directional SSH connection to each upgraded device is required using the default SSH port (22).
- This version does not support upgrading devices with tenant feature enabled.
