As of Cisco SAN-OS Release 3.0(2), if the SSI boot image is located on bootflash: the install
ssi command copies the SSI boot image to the modflash: on the SSM.
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.
As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2), we recommend that you reference the SSI boot image
on modflash: on the SSM. Use the install ssi modflash://slot-1/filename module slot command
to install the SSI image.
If you do not save this configuration, it is lost on a switch reboot. In addition, SSM stays in the
power-down state if your switch is running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a) or earlier, or
comes up in Fibre Channel switching mode if your switch is running Cisco MDS SAN-OS
Release 2.1(2) or later. You must perform this procedure again to recover the SSI image boot
variable configuration.
