H3C S5830V2 Command Reference Manual page 197

patch: Specifies a patch image file.
filename: Specifies the name of a .bin file in the root directory of a storage medium on the master, in
the storage-medium:/base-filename.bin format. It can be a case-insensitive string of up to 63
characters and cannot contain slot information.
slot slot-number: Specifies an IRF member device by its member ID or specifies a PEX by its virtual
slot number.
test: Only checks for the ISSU method to be used for the upgrade. If you do not specify this keyword,
the command activates the specified software images.
Usage guidelines
Before you use this command to activate a software image, read the release notes to identify the
licensing requirement for the image. If the image requires a license, make sure the device has a valid
license installed for the image.
An image runs in memory immediately after it is activated. For an activated image to run after a
reboot, you must commit the software change by using the install commit command.
If you specify a subordinate member for the command, the command copies the images to the
subordinate member automatically.
At reboot, a subordinate device automatically synchronizes the master device's configuration and
status data. You must wait for the synchronization to complete before using the install activate
command on the subordinate device. To check the synchronization progress, use the display device
command. The synchronization is completed when all member devices are in normal state.
Examples
