C. Updating Software on a Management Module From Release 07.6.01b or Greater
To update the software on an M2, M4, or EP management module from release 07.6.01b or greater to release 07.8.01d:
1. Verify the version of boot code running on the management module by entering the show flash command.
The boot code version is displayed at the end of the line that begins with "Boot Image size". Ensure that boot code
version 07.06.05 is displayed.
Notes: The show flash command only displays the version of boot code installed on the device. It does not display
the version of boot code running on the device.
If you rebooted the routing switch after installing boot code 07.06.05 (as described in "A. Updating Boot Code on a
Management Module to Version 07.06.05"), the required boot code is running. If you are not sure, ProCurve
recommends that you reboot the device now.
2. Store software release 07.8.01d (filename: H2R07801d.bin) on a TFTP server that the routing switch can access.
3. Update the software on the management module to version 07.8.01d by entering the following command:
copy tftp flash <ip-address> H2R07801d.bin [primary | secondary]
Where:
primary copies software to the primary (default) storage area in flash memory.
secondary copies software to the secondary storage area.
If no redundant management module is installed, the message TFTP to Flash Done is displayed when the
update is complete.
If a redundant management module is installed, the message Sync Secondary code in flash...Done is
displayed when the flash images are synchronized and the update is complete.
4. Verify that the software has been successfully copied by entering the show flash command at any level of the CLI:
• The software release in the primary flash is displayed at the end of the line that begins with "Compressed
Pri Code Size".
• The software release in the secondary flash is displayed at the end of the line that begins with
"Compressed Sec Code Size".
Ensure that software release 07.8.01d is stored in the primary or secondary flash area.
5. Reboot the routing switch to load software release 07.8.01d from the area of flash memory (primary or
secondary) where you stored it.
Note: When you reload the software after updating the software to release 07.8.01d, the routing switch displays a
message to say that the configuration has changed and prompts you to save the changes. This message is displayed
even if you do not make any configuration changes because the software records its release number in the running-
config file when the software is loaded onto the switch. Enter Y to reload without saving the change or save the
change and reload.
