Error Codes When Updating from Version 5.8.0 to Version 5.8.x

Applies to Product: USM Appliance™ LevelBlue OSSIM®

To ensure that your deployment meets LevelBlue's requirements, USM Appliance runs a set of diagnostic checks before updating to a new version. The update process aborts if any of the pre-checks fail.

The following table lists the various errors you may receive when updating from USM Appliance version 5.8.0 to later versions. (If you are updating from version 5.7.6 to 5.8.0, see the error codes in Operating System Upgrade in Version 5.8.0 instead.) Should you need help passing these checks, please contact LevelBlue Technical Support.
