Is there a 1 liner to upgrade RouterOS and firmware at the same time?
At the moment I have to update RouterOS:
/system package update check-for-updates; /system package update install;
And then firmware
/system routerboard print; /system routerboard upgrade; /system reboot;
So need to reboot 2 times … is it possible to do it in one command with one reboot?
It is not possible to upgrade routerboot before device reboots to upgraded ROS version. The only corner that can be cut is to set
/system routerboard settings set auto-upgrade=yes
which saves administrator from executing
/system routerboard upgrade
after ROS upgrade. Another reboot is still necessary.
So if I understand that correctly, when I set routerboard to Auto-Upgrade it will reboot 2x as well when it upgrades ROS/firmware?
No, ROS doesn’t reboot automatically, you’ll have to do it manually. Or not, with mature devices routerboot firmware mostly doesn’t change at all between ROS versions so there’s no need for immediate reboot. When device reboots next time, it’ll run updated routerboot as well. If you run into some troubles, you may want to reboot device manually, possibly power-cycling it as well (to make sure all components get a clean start).
I have a device which upgraded routerboot (actually I did it manually) from 6.47.1 to 6.47.7 … but with 11w3d uptime it’s still waiting to get loaded… I’ve obviously no issues with the device. It could well be that it’ll get loaded when I decide to upgrade ROS to 6.48.2 (or whichever version I declare stable enough).
