Working with Software Images
To use the archive copy-sw privileged EXEC command, you must have downloaded from a TFTP server
Note
the images for both the stack member switch being added and the stack master. You use the archive
download-sw privileged EXEC command to perform the download.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode from the stack member that you want to upgrade, follow these steps
to copy the running image file from the flash memory of a different stack member:
Command
Step 1 archive copy-sw /destination-system
destination-stack-member-number /force-reload
source-stack-member-number
Step 2 reload slot stack-member-number
Software for the Network Services Module Software
The C3KX-SM-10GT 10-Gigabit Ethernet network services module requires an additional software
image to support the features that are available only on the service module. You use the archive
download-sw privileged EXEC command on the switch to download the software image, which must be
compatible with the Cisco IOS software running on the switch. If the versions are not compatible, the
service module runs in pass-through mode, which means that none of the service-module-specific
features are available.
When you install a network services module and boot up the switch, the switch runs a compatibility
check to verify that the software version in the service module is compatible with the software running
on the switch.
When you download software by entering the archive download-sw privileged EXEC command, the
switch also runs a version check to verify software compatibility, if applicable:

Appendix 1
If the switch is in a switch stack, it checks the compatibility of the stack protocol and the switches
in the stack.
If a network services module is installed, it checks the compatibility of the switch software and the
network services module software.
Working with the Cisco IOS File System, Configuration Files, and Software Images
Purpose
Copy the running image file from a stack member, and then
unconditionally reload the updated stack member.
At least one stack member must be running the
Note
image that is to be copied to the switch that is
running the incompatible software.
For /destination-system destination-stack-member-number,
specify the number of the stack member (the destination) to
which to copy the source running image file. If you do not
specify this stack member number, the default is to copy the
running image file to all stack members.
Specify /force-reload to unconditionally force a system
reload after the software image downloads.
For source-stack-member-number, specify the number of the
stack member (the source) from which to copy the running
image file. The stack member number range is 1 to 9.
Reset the updated stack member, and put this configuration
change into effect.
