The upgrade process would be via the swinstall.

The newer version allows for more flexibility in making your IGNITE tapes.

Example, you can add additional VGs to be on the IGNITE tape. However, IGNITE tapes are NOT to be used as a backup!

Hi Remy:

Download a current Ignite version from the link provided above. Use 'swinstall' and toggle the '-x reinstall=true' option to install the new version.

Regards!

Ignite tapes are a great (and sometimes necessary) way of restoring a boot disk that won't boot. It can save you hours or even days. I have rebuilt a system boot disk in a few hours last year which would have costed me several days to do otherwise.
