Disable midnight routine for an upgrade

[nortelinsd]

I need to disable the midnight routine for one night. Can I do that at any time prior to or just before an upgrade? If so what LD is it that I do this? We are starting an upgrade right at 00:00 and I do not want midnights to kick in.

If you want to stop the Midnight from running after each reload you will perform during the upgrade, at the LD17 OVLY, DROL prompt enter X30 X35 Xnn - nn being whatever is currently in DROL today.

if they start while you are working you can always just type "halt" at the command Line and it will suspend the midnights till you "halt off" then they will carry on.

most switches that have went through at least one upgrage have been changed.. and i don't know anyone that has changed one back... ands it's like a lot of things in this box, after you've done it once, it's pretty simple
