hitachienergy microscada x sys600 UPGRADE

Affected: >= 10.0 and <= 10.7

Fixed in: newer than 10.7

apt-cache policy microscada-x-sys600 || rpm -q microscada-x-sys600 || microscada-x-sys600 --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 10.7 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade microscada-x-sys600

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade microscada-x-sys600

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 10.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison microscada-x-sys600 sudo apt install microscada-x-sys600=<VERSION_BEFORE_10.0> sudo apt-mark hold microscada-x-sys600

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list microscada-x-sys600 sudo dnf downgrade microscada-x-sys600-<VERSION_BEFORE_10.0> sudo dnf versionlock add microscada-x-sys600

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
