Updating on Generic ARM-Based Device

If auto updating of NAKIVO Backup & Replication is not supported, follow the steps below to update the product on a Generic ARM-based device manually:

1. Download the latest Generic ARM-based NAS updater from  www.nakivo.com/resources/download/update/.

2. Upload the updater to the machine on which the Director is installed. 

   Important
   Make sure you are using the binary transfer mode when uploading the updater to the machine with a Linux OS. For example:

   • Upload the installer from a Windows-based machine

   • Upload the product from a Linux-based machine: run the following command: wget 'server_ip/shared/NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_vX.X.X_Updater.sh'

3. Log in to the Generic ARM-based NAS machine and allow the execution of the updater file. For example: chmod +x NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_vX.X.X_Updater.sh

4. Make sure that no jobs or repository maintenance tasks are running in the product.

   If NAKIVO Backup & Replication is installed on a VM, create a snapshot of the VM prior to updating the product.

5. Execute the updater file with root privileges. For example: sudo ./NAKIVO_Backup_Replication_vX.X.X_Updater.sh

6. Review the license agreement (press Space to go to the next page of the agreement). If you agree to the terms of the license agreement, press “Y” and then press Enter.

7. Press the “Y” key and then press Enter to confirm that you wish to stop the services and begin the update process.

8. Update all machines on which you have additionally deployed a Transporter.
