How to upgrade your PNETLab server to v5.0.1
Only applicable for cases where your PNETLab version is 4.2.10:
Copy and paste this command in your server
wget -O upgrade.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pnetlabrepo/ishare2/main/upgrades/to_5.0.1/upgrade.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 && chmod +x upgrade.sh && bash upgrade.sh
After a few seconds, the upgrade will be done.
Note: This upgrade does not use ishare2: It just downloads the upgrade.sh file from this repository and executes it using the same instructions described in the PNETLab Official website "How to Upgrade PNETLab? Section 2. PNETLab can not connect to Internet."
Known Limitations
-
Avoid to cancel a download in progress:
You will not be allowed to download that image again because ishare2 will recognize that your file/folder already exists in the server. In this case, you will have to manually remove that file/folder
Links
Images (QEMU, bin and dynamips) can be found at unetlab.cloud
