Upgrade

Procedure

1. Obtain and upload the software package by referring to Obtaining the Vision SDK Package.
2. Grant the execute permission on the software package.

   chmod u+x Ascend-mindxsdk-mxvision_{version}_linux-{arch}.run

3. Run the upgrade command to upgrade the Vision SDK package. The following is an example of the upgrade command. For details about related parameters, see Table 1. When you upgrade Vision SDK, a window pops out to ask you whether you accept Huawei Enterprise End User License Agreement (EULA). If you want to skip this step, add echo y | before the upgrade command, indicating that you accept this agreement.

   1	./*.run --upgrade --install-path={MX_SDK_HOME}

   or

   echo y | ./*.run --upgrade --install-path={MX_SDK_HOME}

   *.run indicates the name of the obtained Vision SDK package. Replace it with the actual name.
