This command activates the specified image. It will be the active-image for subsequent reboots
and will be loaded by the boot loader. The current active-image is marked as the backup-image for
subsequent reboots. The optional <unit> parameter is valid only in Stacking, where the unit
parameter identifies the node on which this command must be executed. When this parameter is
not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a Stack.

the switch activation status. For a standalone system, the unit parameter is not valid.
