Lenovo ONIE Quick Start Guide for NE1032
ONIE update mode installs a new version of ONIE on the switch, including the
boot loader and the Linux kernel. It works similarly to the ONIE install mode,
except the discovery process searches for an ONIE image instead, and not a NOS
image.
Notes:
This only upgrades the ONIE partition on the switch and does not affect the
NOS image.
The ONIE updater image is called
onie-updater-powerpc-lenovo_ne1032-r0.
This also installs a different version of the ONIE boot loader, which does not
support running Lenovo Network OS. If you wish to boot Lenovo NOS, you
have to re-install it by using ONIE Install mode (for more details, see
ONIE Install Mode" on page
To boot the switch in ONIE update mode on the next reload, use the following
command from the switch CLI:
Lenovo Cloud Network OS:
NE1032(config)# startup image onie-image update
Note: Upon reloading after the update process is completed, the switch is not able
to load the Lenovo Network OS, booting into ONIE Install mode instead. To access
the console port at this point, you must change the default baud rate of the
terminal emulator to 115,200 bps.
ONIE rescue mode is useful when trying to recover from a broken NOS image. It
works similarly to the ONIE install mode, except the ONIE discovery process is
disabled. ONIE will not try to find and install a NOS image. This allows for the
troubleshooting of the system.
To boot the switch in ONIE rescue mode on the next reload, use the following
command from the switch CLI:
Lenovo Cloud Network OS:
NE1032(config)# startup image onie-image rescue
