Connecting

If this is your first time connecting to a Linux edge device, you will need to uninstall and reinstall our .deb software packages in order to upgrade.

Follow the instructions for Uninstalling and Installing in order to successfully upgrade.

Uninstalling

Note

Always backup your configuration data by generating an export before you upgrade. All data is lost and you will need to reconfigure after upgrading.

Our latest software package contains a handy uninstall script that allows you to quickly remove Edge ACM and all of AUTOSOL’s software utilities from your device.

You will need to gain SSH access to your device in order to run the uninstall program. SSH access is out of the scope of this guide, so we will not go into much detail here.

Once you have access to a terminal connected to the device, you can run the uninstall.sh script from any location as long as you give the full path to it.

some basic software to continue.

Terminal Software

Most steps in the installation will be run via the command terminal; this can be accessed on a remote terminal using free software like Putty (https://www.putty.org/). In the default configuration, Linux can be accessed via an SSH connection to port 22. The default username and password vary by manufacturer.

File Transfer Software

While SCP (Secure Copy) can be used from the command line, many people prefer to use a simple GUI to transfer files in a manner more similar to using Windows Explorer. WinSCP (https://winscp.net/eng/download.php) is a piece of free software that allows an SCP connection via that same port 22, allowing you to copy our installer to your Linux system.

Installing

Info

Before you begin: the initial installation of eACM will require the installer to download multiple dependencies. Internet access is required for the initial installation.
