Transparent recovery of self-sustained code-upgrade
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of repairing an applying computer code, comprising:
- setting a relevant unset variable to avoid an un-initialized command failure;
unsetting a relevant set variable to render a second invocation of the set variable to appear as a first invocation;
retrieving a fix-named file containing a plurality of code entries organized in a stanza style;
executing the fix-named file, wherein the plurality of stanza-style entries are sourced by a defective self-sustained code-upgrade code to change a variable which has been previously set, thereby overriding an existing process;
creating a backdoor technique dynamically by configuring a new code-load code command to repair without replacing the defective self-sustained code-upgrade code coming-from code-load code;
terminating at least one relevant running process affecting the correct execution of the new code-load code command; and
executing the defective self-sustained code-upgrade code successfully.

Abstract
A defective self-sustained code-upgrade code is recovered. A relevant unset variable is set to avoid an un-initialized command failure. A relevant set variable is unset to render a second invocation of the set variable to appear as a first invocation A fix-named file is retrieved containing a plurality of code entries organized in a stanza style. The fixed-named file is executed. The plurality of stanza-organized entries are sourced by the defective code-upgrade code to change a variable which has been previously set, thereby overriding an existing process.
