4.6.1 Deploying New Versions of System
If you build new system images, you can preserve old file names and overwrite existing
images. In such a case, there is no need to update objects in LDAP database.
Alternatively, you can copy the new image to a file with new version number. You
must add the new version (scPosImageVersion) to the related scPosImage
object (see Section 7.4.7, "Activating Images" (page 86)).
You can also use a new name and version number. In such a case, you must create a
new scPosImage (see Section 7.4.6, "Adding an scPosImage Object" (page 84)).
If the new image uses a different kernel version, the new scPosImage must be added
to the corresponding scDistributionContainer.
