Parameters
pex pex-model: Specifies the PEX model, a case-insensitive string of up to 63 characters. You must
enter the complete PEX model name for the device to identify the PEX correctly. For available PEX
models, enter boot-loader pex ?
boot boot-package: Specifies the file path of a .bin boot image file, a case-insensitive string. The file
must be stored in the root directory of a storage medium on the parent fabric. The maximum length is
63 characters for the storage-medium:/base-filename.bin segments of the file path. This length limit
does not include the IRF member ID in front of the storage medium segment. For more information
about specifying a file path, see "Managing the file system."
system system-package: Specifies the file path of a .bin system image file, a case-insensitive string.
The file must be stored in the root directory of a storage medium on the parent fabric. The maximum
length is 63 characters for the storage-medium:/base-filename.bin segments of the file path. This
length limit does not include the IRF member ID in front of the storage medium segment. For more
information about specifying a file path, see "Managing the file system."
feature feature-package: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 30 .bin feature image file paths.
The file paths are case insensitive. The files must be stored in the root directory of a storage medium
on the
storage-medium:/base-filename.bin segments of a file path. This length limit does not include the
IRF member ID in front of the storage medium segment. For more information about specifying a file
path, see "Managing the file system."
ipe ipe-filename: Specifies the file path of an .ipe image package file, a case-insensitive string. The
file must be stored in the root directory of a storage medium on the parent fabric. The maximum
length is 63 characters for the storage-medium:/base-filename.ipe segments of the file path. This
length limit does not include the IRF member ID in front of the storage medium segment.
Usage guidelines
PEXs must load startup software images from the parent fabric when they join the IRF 3 system for
the first time.
You must configure this command on the parent fabric for new PEXs to be added.
For PEXs already in the IRF 3 system, you can use this command to upgrade PEX software.
•
If PEXs do not have a storage medium, you must use this command to specify startup PEX
software images stored on the parent fabric.
•
If PEXs have a storage medium, you can also use the boot-loader file command to set startup
software images in their local storage medium. These PEXs will always attempt to start up from
the local medium before they use the PEX startup software images stored on the parent fabric.
Before you use the boot-loader pex file command, save the upgrade files to the root directory of
any storage medium on the parent fabric. If the storage medium is partitioned, save the files to the
root directory of the first partition.
This command copies the PEX startup images to all parent devices automatically. However, PEXs
always start up with the software images on the master device. To prevent a PEX startup failure after
a master/subordinate switchover, execute this command each time you add a parent device.
