Aborting a software image operation

When the system is activating or deactivating a software image for an incremental upgrade, you can
press Ctrl+C or use the install abort [ job-id ] command in user view to abort the operation.
After you abort an operation, the system runs with the software images that it used before the activate or
deactivate operation.
Verifying the software change confirmation status
and software image integrity and consistency
If some software images are not integral or some activated/deactivated software images are not
confirmed, a switchover might not occur as expected, and the MPUs might run different versions of
software images after a reboot or even cannot restart up correctly. (In standalone mode.)
If some software images are not integral or some activated/deactivated software images are not
confirmed, a switchover might not occur as expected, and the MPUs might run different versions of
software images after a reboot or even cannot restart up correctly. (In IRF mode.)
To solve the problem, download and install the software images again to ensure software integrity, or
use the install activate, install deactivate, and install commit commands as appropriate to guarantee
software image consistency.
To check the integrity and consistency of software images, execute the following command in user view:
Task
Verify the software change confirmation status and
software image integrity and consistency.
