Installation Manual
H3C S7500E Series Ethernet Switches
To complete the host software upgrade, you need to set the main/backup attribute of
the host software. For details, refer to 6.2.5 "Setting the Main and Backup Host
Software Through the Boot Menu" on page 6-13.
If you need to upgrade the Boot ROM on the SRPUs through the boot menu, refer to
section 6.2.6 "Updating Boot ROM Through a File on the Flash" on page 6-15.
Note:
After the system reboots, you need to change the baud rate of the HyperTerminal back
to 9600 bps as described in Steps 5 and 6. You need not to change the baud rate if you
have chosen 9600 bps for download.
6.2.5 Setting the Main and Backup Host Software Through the Boot Menu
The S7500E series support dual image booting. Usually the switch boots with the main
image (namely, the main boot file), but uses the backup image (namely, the backup
boot file) when the main image is in error.
For the setting of the main and backup host software through command lines, refer to
section 6.4.1 I. 3)"Set the main and backup boot files." on page 6-20. The following
