Note the slot number for later reference.
Step 3 Verify the Cisco MDS NX-OS release running on the switch and the location and name of the SSI boot image on the
switch.
Step 4
Install the SSI image on the SSM.
Note If the SSI boot image is located on bootflash: the install ssi command copies the SSI boot image to modflash:
on the SSM.
switch# install ssi modflash://4-1/m9000-ek9-ssi-mz.4.1.1b.bin module 4
Note If the SSM is configured for Layer 3 Fibre Channel switching or Intelligent Storage Services, a warning will
be displayed at the command prompt indicating that the operation will disrupt traffic and you will be asked if
you wish to continue.
We recommend that you reference the SSI boot image on modflash: on the SSM. Use the install ssi
Note
modflash://slot-1/filename module alor command to install the SSI image.
Step 5 Issue the show boot command to display the current contents of the image boot variable for the SSM.
switch# show boot
sup-1
kickstart variable = bootflash:/boot-2-0-1-9
system variable =
bootflash:/isan-2-0-1-9;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b
sup-2
kickstart variable = bootflash:/boot-2-0-1-9
system variable =
bootflash:/isan-2-0-1-9;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b
Module 4
ssi variable = modflash://4-1/m9000-ek9-ssi-mz.4.1.1b.bin
Step 6 Save the new boot variable configuration so the new boot image is used when the switch reboots.
switch# copy running-config startup-config
If you do not save this configuration, it is lost on a switch reboot. In addition, the SSM comes up in Fibre Channel
Note
switching mode. You must perform this procedure again to recover the SSI image boot variable configuration.
Step 7
Issue the show module command to verify the status of the SSM.
switch# show module
