Hello everyone,
I’m trying to call a FW update provision from a configuration provision. I know that it is possible to copy and paste the code from the update provision and merge it, but if possible, I want to avoid this approach. Is it possible?
Use a Tag to initiate the F/W upgrade. Create a preset triggered by the presence of a Tag which then kicks off the provision. Then set the corresponding Tag in the config provision is a way to accomplish what you are trying to do.
In my opinion, you are probably making things more complicated than they need to be. The way I do F/W upgrade on my CPEs is have a preset which is triggered on boot which checks for F/W upgrade. I have a second preset that checks every morning from 1-3am for a F/W upgrade. These two presets pass either the “Boot” or “Scheduled” argument to the provision. This is because some firmware/configuration changes take much longer than others and so we only want those to execute overnight.
I’ve done it that way. When you understand how to use tags, they are quite useful.
Thank you for the tip.
