Usage guidelines
An image runs in memory immediately after it is activated. For an activated image to run after a reboot,
you must commit the software change by using the install commit command.
If the specified files are not saved on the MPU to be upgraded, the command copies the images to the
MPU automatically. If the specified files are not saved on the security engine to be upgraded, the
command copies the images to the security engine automatically.
In standalone mode, follow these guidelines:
If you specify the active MPU, the command takes effect on the active MPU and all LPUs.
•
If you specify the standby MPU, the command takes effect only on the standby MPU.
•
In IRF mode, follow these guidelines:
If you specify the global active MPU, the command takes effect on the global active MPU and all
•
LPUs.
• If you specify a standby MPU, the command takes effect on the standby MPU.
