How can a PAR file be imported at the command line interface?
Copy the PAR file onto a floppy disk (MS-DOS® formatted) or a USB flashdisk and proceed as follows to import it into the box:
Using a floppy disk:
1. Insert the disk into the floppy drive of the box and mount it:
mount /mnt/floppy
2. Copy the PAR file onto the box:
cp /mnt/floppy/box.par /opt/phion/update/box.par
3. Unmount the floppy disk and remove it from the drive:
umount /mnt/floppy
4. Activate the PAR file with the following commands:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/phion stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/phion start
or reboot the box
reboot
Using a USB flashdisk:
1. Plugin the USB flashdisk into the box and mount it:
mkdir /mnt/usb
mount /mnt/usb
2. Copy the PAR file onto the box:
cp /mnt/usb/box.par /opt/phion/update/box.par
3. Unmount the USB flashdisk and remove it from the box:
umount /mnt/usb
4. Activate the PAR file with the following commands:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/phion stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/phion start
or reboot the box
reboot
Note:
In release 4.2.x it was needed to load the usb-storage driver manually. Please refer for this to article https://campus.barracuda.com/solution/50160000000IKYPAA4
Attention:
The PAR file must be named "box.par"!
