Software Upgrade and Boot Options
Method Two.
1 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>}
2 Activate the installed modular package, if installed on the active partition, using the following
command:
run update
3 Terminate and restart the processes associated with the software module using the following
command:
restart process [class <cname> | <name> {msm <slot>}]
Examples. The following examples upgrade the SSH module on the active partition and assume that
you have:
Upgraded the switch to a new core image (see
●
information)
Downloaded the corresponding modular software package to your TFTP server. On a modular
●
switch, you can download the modular software package to an external compact flash memory card
(see
"Downloading a New Image" on page 591
The first example uses the
the processes associated with the software module that you are updating:
terminate process exsshd graceful
download image 10.10.10.2 bd10K-11.3.0.10-ssh.xmod
run update
start process exsshd
The second example uses the
associated with the software module that you are updating:
download image 10.10.10.2 bd10K-11.3.0.10-ssh.xmod
run update
restart process exsshd
Rebooting the Switch
To reboot the switch, use the following command:
reboot {time <month> <day> <year> <hour> <min> <sec>} {cancel} {warm} {msm <slot_id>}
Use this command to schedule a time to reboot the switch or to reboot the switch immediately. To
schedule a time to reboot the switch, use the following command:
reboot time <date> <time>
Where
is the date and
date
rebooted. The values use the following format:
mm dd yyyy hh mm ss
