NAME

ksplice-apply - Apply an on-disk Ksplice update to the running kernel

SYNOPSIS

ksplice-apply UPDATE_TARBALL

DESCRIPTION

ksplice-apply takes as input a Ksplice update tarball, as generated by ksplice-create(8), and it applies the update to the running binary kernel.

The update tarball used with ksplice-apply must have been generated for the running kernel's version.

OPTIONS

Applies the update with debugging output enabled. Recommended only for debugging.
--debugfile=filename
Sets the location where debugging output should be saved. Implies --debug.
