How do I upgrade software on a 7750 SR NE?
Purpose
This procedure shows the process of upgrading software on an MDM-managed 7750 SR NE. Before performing this procedure, verify that the NE to be upgraded is reachable, and that adaptors for the new software version are installed on the NSP.
Nokia recommends using the nsp-ne-upgrade-with-phases operation type to upgrade a 7750 SR. When you create an operation with this operation type and NE type, the parameter values are provided as input for the upgrade workflow. NSP monitors the status of workflow executions.
Note: Scale limits apply for number of concurrent executions and number of targets per operation; see Scale limits for large-scale operations in the NSP Planning Guide.
The following table shows the general process for this example procedure.
