The archive upload-sw privileged EXEC command builds an image file on the server by uploading these
files in order: info, the Cisco IOS image, and the web management files. After these files are uploaded,
the upload algorithm creates the file format.
For the download and upload algorithms to operate properly, do not rename image names.
Caution

Copying an Image File from One Stack Member to Another

For switch stacks, the archive download-sw and archive upload-sw privileged EXEC commands can
be used only through the stack master. Software images downloaded to the stack master are
automatically downloaded to the rest of the stack members.
To upgrade a switch that has an incompatible software image, use the archive copy-sw privileged EXEC
command to copy the software image from an existing stack member to the one that has incompatible
software. That switch automatically reloads and joins the stack as a fully functioning member.
To use the archive copy-sw privileged EXEC command, you must have downloaded from a TFTP server
Note
the images for both the stack member switch being added and the stack master. You use the archive
download-sw privileged EXEC command to perform the download.
