Upgrading a Modular Software Package
When Extreme Networks introduces a new core software image, a new modular software package is
also available. If you have a software module installed and upgrade to a new core image, you need to
upgrade to the corresponding modular software package.
Two methods are available to upgrade an existing modular software package on your switch.
Regardless of which method you choose, you must terminate and restart the processes associated with
the software module.
Method One.
1 Terminate the processes associated with the software module using the following command:
terminate process <name> [forceful | graceful] {msm <slot>}
2 Download the software module from your TFTP server or external compact flash memory card using
the following command:
download image [[<hostname> | <ipaddress>] <filename> {{vr} <vrname>} | memorycard
<filename>] {<partition>} {msm <slotid>}
3 Activate the installed modular package, if installed on the active partition, using the following
command:
run update
4 Restart the processes associated with the software module using the following command:
start process <name> {msm <slot>}
