DPI/BNG Versions Update
If you have version of CentOS 6.x or CentOS 8.x installed, switch the repository once with the command:
sed -i -e '/^mirrorlist=http:\/\//d' -e 's/^# *baseurl=http:\/\/mirror.centos.org/baseurl=http:\/\/vault.centos.org/' /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*.repo
Then run updates as usual:
yum update fastdpi
Module yaml error appears during the upgrade, you should upgrade the module dnf upgrade libmodulemd.
After updating, restart the DPI:
service fastdpi restart
and other dependent procoesses (PCRF/Radius), but only if they are actually used and their configuration is valid:
service fastpcrf restart service fdpi_radius restart
You can update the operating system components Do not update the kernel version and its dependent utilities!
For CentOS 6.x:
yum --exclude=kernel*,util-linux-ng,libuuid,libblkid update
For CentOS 8.x:
yum update
Note for users running the DPI in a virtual environment, using old CPU (release of 2009) and AMD CPU:
Run the following command before the update:
touch /etc/dpi/noprioadj
and it causes the DPI process to be launched with normal priority (not the realtime), thus significantly reducing the consumption of CPU system (sys) resourses, but slightly increasing the latency on the platform.
