  1. Use sftp to connect to the cloud instance.
    # sftp -i ~/.ssh/<mykey>  <user>@<cloud-instance-ip>
    where
    1. <mykey> is the private key of the key-pair you associated with your cloud instance
    2. <user> is the user associated with your cloud instance (e.g., opc on OCI, or centos for a CentOS instance on AWS; for an instance installed from a prepackaged Charon-SSP VE image, use the SFTP user charon)
    3. <cloud-instance-ip> the ip address of your cloud instance

  2. Copy the software package to the cloud instance using the following sftp command:
    > put <local-path-to-license-server-package>

  3. Use ssh to log in on the cloud instance.
    # ssh -i ~/.ssh/<mykey> <user>@<cloud-instance-ip>
    1. <mykey> is the private key of the key-pair you associated with your cloud instance
    2. <user> is the user for interactive login associated with your cloud instance (e.g., opc on OCI, or centos for a CentOS instance on AWS; for an instance installed from a prepackaged Charon-SSP VE image, use sshuser)
    3. <cloud-instance-ip> the ip address of your cloud instance

  4. As a privileged user (root) go to the directory where you stored the installation package and update the package. If you used the VE image and copied the file using SFTP to user charon, the file will be in the hierarchy under /charon/storage.
    1. Become the root user:          # sudo -i
    2. Go to the package location:   # cd <path-to-package-directory>
    3. Install the package:             
      1. Linux 7.x: # yum update license-server*.rpm
      2. Linux 8.x: # dnf update license-server*.rpm
