Performing the Deployment File Back Up

Before upgrading, back up the configuration, logs, and deployment files.

To back up the deployment files, perform the following steps:

  1. Log on to the SMI Cluster Manager Node as a Ubuntu user

  2. Create a new directory for deployment.

    Example:

    test@smiamf-cm01:~$ mkdir -p "temp_$(date +'%m%d%Y_T%H%M')" && cd "$_"
  3. Move the amf deployment files into the newly created deployment directory.

  4. Untar the amf deployment file.

    Example:
    test@smi1amf01-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$ tar -xzvf amf.2020.01.0-1.SPA.tgz
    ./
    ./amf_REL_KEY-CCO_RELEASE.cer
    ./cisco_x509_verify_release.py
    ./amf.2020.01.0-1.tar
    ./amf.2020.01.0-1.tar.signature.SPA
    ./amf.2020.01.0-1.tar.SPA.README
    
  5. Verify the downloaded image.

    Example:

    test@smi1amf01-cm01:~/temp_08072019_T1651$ cat amf.2020.01.0-1.tar.SPA.README
    Important

    Follow the procedure mentioned in the SPA.README file to verify the build before proceeding to the next step.
