Performing An Incompatible Upgrade - HP 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Performing an incompatible upgrade

Perform this task in user view.
Step
1. (Optional.) Specify
PEX startup images.
2. Load the upgrade
images as main
startup software
images on
subordinate
members.
3. Perform a
master/subordinate
switchover to
complete the ISSU
process.

Remarks
Perform this step if you want to
upgrade PEXs.
IMPORTANT:
Because incompatible versions cannot
run simultaneously, the upgraded
subordinate devices will be isolated
and cannot forward traffic until a
master/subordinate switchover occurs.
In a ring-topology IRF fabric, HP
recommends that you specify half of
the subordinate members for this
command to reduce service
interruption. Make sure the specified
subordinate members are physically
connected.
Specify the member ID of a
subordinate member for the
chassis-number argument.
This command also upgrades the PEXs
that are attached only to the specified
subordinate members.
This command upgrades the remaining
members and PEXs.
