Image Management
|
|
################
|
|
|
|
The VyOS image-based installation is implemented by creating a directory for
|
|
each image on the storage device selected during the install process.
|
|
|
|
The directory structure of the boot device:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
/
|
|
/boot
|
|
/boot/grub
|
|
/boot/1.2.0-rolling+201810021347
|
|
|
|
The image directory contains the system kernel, a compressed image of the root
|
|
filesystem for the OS, and a directory for persistent storage, such as
|
|
configuration. On boot, the system will extract the OS image into memory and
|
|
mount the appropriate live-rw sub-directories to provide persistent storage
|
|
system configuration.
|
|
|
|
This process allows for a system to always boot to a known working state, as
|
|
the OS image is fixed and non-persistent. It also allows for multiple releases
|
|
of VyOS to be installed on the same storage device. The image can be selected
|
|
manually at boot if needed, but the system will otherwise boot the image
|
|
configured to be the default (:opcmd:`set system image default-boot`).
|
|
|
|
.. opcmd:: show system image
|
|
|
|
List all available system images which can be bootet on the current system.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
vyos@vyos:~$ show system image
|
|
The system currently has the following image(s) installed:
|
|
|
|
1: 1.2.0-rolling+201810021347 (default boot)
|
|
2: 1.2.0-rolling+201810021217
|
|
3: 1.2.0-rolling+201809252218
|
|
|
|
.. opcmd:: set system image default-boot
|
|
|
|
Select the default boot image which will be started on the next boot of the
|
|
System. A list of available images can be shown using the :opcmd:`show
|
|
system image`
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. opcmd:: delete system image [image-name]
|
|
|
|
Delete no longer needed images from the system. You can specify an optional
|
|
image name to delete, the image name can be retrieved via a list of available
|
|
images can be shown using the :opcmd:`show system image`.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
vyos@vyos:~$ delete system image
|
|
The following image(s) can be deleted:
|
|
|
|
1: 1.3-rolling-201912181733 (default boot) (running image)
|
|
2: 1.3-rolling-201912180242
|
|
3: 1.2.2
|
|
4: 1.2.1

Update VyOS
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Finally, new system images can be added using the :opcmd:`add system image`
|
|
command. The add image command will extract the image from the release ISO
|
|
(either on the local filesystem or remotely if a URL is provided). The image
|
|
install process will prompt you to use the current system configuration and SSH
|
|
security keys, allowing for the new image to boot using the current
|
|
configuration.
|
|
|
|
.. opcmd:: add system image <url | path>
|
|
|
|
New system images can be either installed from an URL (http://, https://) or
|
|
any location pointed to by a file path, e.g. /tmp/vyos-1.2.3-amd64.iso.
|
|
If there is not enough free diskspace available installation will be
|
|
canceled. To delete images use the :opcmd:`delete system image` command.
|
|
|

|
What would you like to name this image? [vyos-1.3-rolling-201912201452]:
|
|
|
|
OK. This image will be named: vyos-1.3-rolling-201912201452
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Rolling releases are not GPG signed, only the real release build
|
|
will have a proper GPG signature.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: VyOS configuration is associated to each image, and each image has
|
|
a unique copy of its configuration. This is different than a traditional
|
|
network router where the configuration is shared across all images.
|
|
|
|
After reboot you might want to verify the version you are running with the
|
|
:opcmd:`show version` command.
|
|
|
|
.. hint:: You can always access files from a previous installation and copy
|
|
them to your current image. This can be done using the :opcmd:`copy`
|
|
command. To copy ``/config/config.boot`` from VyOS 1.2.1 image use ``copy
|
|
file 1.2.1://config/config.boot to /tmp/config.boot.1.2.1``.
