Download OS10 image for upgrade
To upgrade an existing OS10 image, rst download a new OS10 Enterprise Edition image from DDL.
1 Sign into DDL using your account credentials.
2 Locate the entry for your entitlement ID and order number, and then select the product name.
3 Select the Available Downloads tab on the Product page.
4 Select the OS10 Enterprise Edition image to download, and then click Download.
5 Read the Dell End User License Agreement, and then scroll to the end of the agreement and click Yes, I agree.
6 Select how to download the software les, then click Download Now.
7 After you download the OS10 Enterprise Edition image, unpack the .tar le and store the OS10 binary image on a local server. To
unpack the .tar le, follow these guidelines:
Extract the OS10 binary le from the .tar le. For example, to unpack a .tar le on a Linux server or from the ONIE prompt, enter:
tar -xf tar_filename
NOTE
: Some Windows unzip applications insert extra carriage returns (CR) or line feeds (LF) when they
extract the contents of a .tar le. The extra CRs and LFs may corrupt the downloaded OS10 binary image. Turn
OFF this option if you use a Windows-based tool to untar an OS10 binary le. For example, in WinRAR under
the Advanced Options tab, de-select the .tar le smart CR/LF conversion feature.
Generate a checksum for the downloaded OS10 binary image by using the md5sum command on the image le. Ensure that the
generated checksum matches the checksum in the image MD5 le that is extracted from the .tar le.
md5sum image_filename
