If you are advised by Tech Support to perform a field install of PBX software, these are the instructions to create the USB dongle and how to use that to install the software on the PBX. Once completed, you will most likely need to upgrade the PBX to current software version via the normal process.

You'll find both the LiveUSBCreator.zip file here: Live USB Creator The version 6 install ISO can be found here: Version 6 Install Image (NOTE: Installing version 6 REQUIRES a 64-bit compatible system, please check with tech support if you are unsure about your pbx).
When you click on the links, they will take you to a Dropbox. There you will navigate to the right side of the screen and click on the download button to download the files.
Download the file, LiveUSBCreator.zip and extract it's contents. This will create a folder called LiveUSBCreator Download the file, IPitomyPBXReinstall.iso. Put this file in the newly created LiveUSBCreator folder Put a formated (FAT32), empty 1GB USB drive in the system. Enter the folder LiveUSBCreator. Right click on file: liveusb-creator application, and Run as Administrator.
The USB drive letter should be visible in the "Target Device" box. If not, then select it from the list. Click the [Browse] button under "Use existing Live CD" Browse to and select " Install .iso" Click [Open]

Using the USB Install Dongle
When reinstalling a PBX or upgrading to a new OS from a USB dongle, there are two things that need to be done after the system is relicensed.
First,
Go to System -> VLAN
Hit 'Save' and 'Apply Changes'
Then do the same in Phone Global
Go to PBX Settings -> Phone Global
Hit 'Save' and 'Apply Changes'
It does not matter whether or not you are using VLAN or made any changes on Phone Global.
The VLAN Save configures the DNS Client so that names resolve.
The Phone Global Save initializes various passwords so they can be written to the phone configs.
