install image <fname> {<partition>} {msm <slotid>} {reboot}
3 Initiate failover from the primary MSM to the backup MSM using the following command:

primary, runs the software on its active partition, and provides all of the switch management
functions.

<filename>] {<partition>} {msm <slotid>}

If the new backup MSM is installed in slot A, specify msm A. If the new backup MSM is installed in slot B,
specify msm B.
