The downloading time depends on the available network connection in the enterprise environment. Ensure that you have adequate bandwidth and are not running into high latency issues.
System Requirements
For more details on the system requirements, see Understand System Requirements section in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10 Quick Start Guide.
Installation Guidelines
The following sections explain how to install the maintenance release.
Before You Begin Installing the Maintenance Release
You can install Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.6 on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.2 System Patch or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.3 or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.4+3.10.4 System Patch or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.4 Update 01 or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.4 Update 02+3.10.4 Update 02 System Patch or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.4 Update 03 or Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.5+3.10.5 System Patch from Software Download page.
Since the maintenance release is not removable, it is important to have a way to revert your system to the original version in case hardware or software problems cause the maintenance release installation to fail.
To ensure you can do this, take a backup of your system before downloading and installing this UBF maintenance release.
Similarly, if you are running Prime Infrastructure 3.10.5 in a Virtual Machine (VM) and your organization permits taking VM snapshots, stop Prime Infrastructure and use the VMware client to take a VM snapshot before applying this maintenance release. Store the snapshot in an external storage repository, and restore from the snapshot if the maintenance release installation is unsuccessful. For more details, see Restore an Application Backup in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10 Administrator Guide.
To revert to Prime Infrastructure 3.10.6 installation (with PI 3.10.x, PI 3.9.x, PI 3.8.x, or PI 3.7.x backup), follow these steps:
-
Reinstall Prime Infrastructure 3.10 from an OVA or ISO distribution
-
Upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.2 using tar bundle and install PI 3.10.2 system patch once after upgrade is completed. For more information, see Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.2 Release Notes
-
Install Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.6
-
Install Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10.6 System Patch
-
If you have a prior 3.10.x, 3.9.x, PI 3.8.x, PI 3.7.x backup - Restore this backup
If you are installing this release as part of a High Availability (HA) implementation, see Installing the Maintenance Release in High Availability Mode in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10 Administrator Guide .

Troubleshooting Maintenance Release Installs in High Availability Implementations
If you are unable to apply this maintenance release in a High Availability (HA) implementation, check whether your network bandwidth, throughput and latency meets the network requirements recommended in Network Throughput Restrictions on HA section in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10 Administrator Guide. In a few cases, continued or intermittent throughput problems can cause a complete failure. If you believe this has occurred, contact Cisco TAC for support.
If you are unable to verify that this maintenance release has been successfully installed on a Prime Infrastructure server, or one or both of the servers fails to restart properly after installing the maintenance release, you may need to re-image the server as explained in Before You Begin Installing the Maintenance Release before continuing.
In all cases, you can use the backup-logs command on one or both servers to get information on the source of the failure. For more information, see the backup-logs section in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.10 Command Reference Guide .
