On-Site Preparation for the Installation

On-Site Preparation for the Installation
Perform these tasks before starting the software installation on the S8300.

Install the New License File, If Necessary

If Necessary, Rename Old License and
Authentication Files from S8300 FTP
Directory
Before an upload or download, be sure the S8300 FTP directory (/var/home/ftp/pub) contains no files
with a .pwd or .lic extension. Only one of these files can exist in a directory. If one exists, move, rename,
or delete it.

Type
The system displays a list of files.

If any .lic or .pwd files exist, rename them. For example, type
.lic.old
6
Leave the telnet session open for a later task.
