Viewing the Status of a Non-Disruptive Upgrade on a Fabric Switch

You can view the status of a non-disruptive upgrade using the show install all status command. Note
that the output shows the status only after the switch has rebooted to come up with the new image. All
actions preceding the reboot are not captured in this output because when you enter the install all
command using a telnet session, the session is disconnected when the switch reboots. After you can
reconnect to the switch via a telnet session, the upgrade may already be complete; in this case, the output
will show the status of the upgrade.

This is the log of last installation.
Continuing with installation process, please wait.
The login will be disabled until the installation is completed.

Troubleshooting a Non-Disruptive Upgrade on a Fabric Switch

When a non-disruptive upgrade begins, the system notifies all services that an upgrade is about to start,
and finds out whether or not the upgrade can proceed. If a service cannot allow the upgrade to proceed
at this time (for example, FSPF timers are not configured to the default value, or a CFS operation is in
progress), then the service will abort the upgrade. In such a context, you will be prompted to enter the
show install all failure-reason command to determine the reason why the upgrade cannot proceed.
