Upgrade Checklist

Before upgrading the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller software:

  1. Obtain the name and location of the target software image file from either Oracle Software Delivery Cloud, https://edelivery.oracle.com/, or My Oracle Support, https://support.oracle.com, as applicable.
  2. Provision platforms with the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller image file in the boot parameters.
  3. Run the check-upgrade-readiness command and examine its output for any recommendations or requirements prior to upgrade.
  4. Verify the integrity of your configuration using the ACLI verify-config command.
  5. Back up a well-working configuration. Name the file descriptively so you can fall back to this configuration easily.
  6. Refer to the Oracle Communications Session Border Controller Release Notes for any caveats involving software upgrades.
