LTM Upgrade from 10.1.0 to 10.2.2
Hi,
Next week I'll be upgrading our LTMs from version 10.1.0 to version 10.2.2 Hotfix1. I've not upgraded a Big-IP device before so I'm after an advice users feel would help the upgrade run smoothly. From my understanding the upgrade procedure is as follows.
Download and import the image and hotfix to the device
Install the image and hotfix to a volume. I'm OK to overwrite one of the versions which isn't used.
Go to Boot Locations and Activate version 10.2.2
Before the upgrade I plan to take a ucs backup.
Anything else anyone would recommend?
Many Thanks
Darren

- You can import the image and hotfix through the GUI, otherwise, make sure they are in the /shared/images directory on box.
- Be sure you have console access to the devices before upgrading so that if something goes wrong you can use the console to boot back to the original volume.
Make sure before you load an image into a volume that you re-activate your licenses. I believe it states this in the upgrade doc, but make sure you do it before loading the image on the volume or you may have troubles booting from it.
