Usage Guidelines To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper
task IDs.
Use the install activate command to activate software packages or SMUs for all valid cards. Information
within the package is used to verify compatibility with the target cards and with the other active
software. Actual activation is performed only after the package compatibility and application program
interface (API) compatibility checks have passed.
Specifying Packages to Activate
You can either use the id keyword and add-id argument to activate all packages that were added in one
or more specific install add operations, or specify packages by name. The operation ID of an install add
operation is indicated in the syslog displayed during the operation and in the output of the show install
log command. If you specify packages according to operation ID, all the packages that were added by
the specified operation must still be on the router.
