When importing or updating devices, NSM alerts you if it detects a mismatch between
the OS running on the managed device and the OS that NSM has recorded for the device.
OS mismatches can occur when:
A device administrator changes the OS on the device using the Web UI or CLI commands
(through a console, Telnet, or SSH session).
The Automate ADM Transformation option in the Firmware Update Availability dialog
box was deselected during a firmware upgrade by NSM. (See "Upgrading the Device
Software Version" on page 262.)
To reconcile the OS versions, right-click a device and select Adjust OS Version to display
the Adjust OS Version Wizard. Follow the directions in the wizard. For step-by-step
instructions on how to upgrade a device, refer to the Network and Security Manager Online
Help topic, "Adjusting the OS Version on Devices."
If a Junos device was upgraded using the Web UI or CLI, after the Adjust OS Version
Wizard, you need to import the device configuration into NSM. This step is necessary
because the upgrade process causes the Junos device to internally transform its
configuration to conform to the new version. After you import this transformed
configuration into NSM, the Config Status of the device becomes Managed, In Sync.
NSM does not support OS downgrades; you cannot use NSM to install an earlier version
of Juniper Networks OS than is currently running on the device. You must use the Web
UI or CLI commands to downgrade a managed device, and then add the device to NSM
again.
NSM allows administrators to rollback an IC or SA device to the previous software version
that was installed on it.
