Specifying The Startup Image File And Completing The Upgrade - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

Specifying the startup image file and completing
the upgrade
Perform this task in user view.
Step
1. Specify the upgrade file as
the main startup image file
for the master device.
2. Specify main startup
images for each
subordinate device.
3. Save the running
configuration.
4. Reboot the IRF fabric.

Remarks
You can also specify a backup startup
image file.
If method 1 is used, the file name must
take the
storage-medium:/base-filename.ipe
format, for example,
flash:/startup.ipe.
If method 2 is used, all file names must
take the
storage-medium:/base-filename.bin
format, for example,
flash:/startup-boot.bin.
Skip this step if you have only one
device.
To use method 3, make sure you
understand the following requirements
and upgrade results:
•
If the master device has started up
with main startup images, its main
startup images are synchronized to
the subordinate devices, regardless
of whether any change has been
made to this set of startup images.
•
If the master device has started up
with backup startup images, its
backup startup images are
synchronized to the subordinate
devices, regardless of whether any
change has been made to this set
of startup images.
•
Startup image synchronization will
fail if any software image being
synchronized is corrupted or not
available.
This step makes sure any configuration
you have made can survive a reboot.
At startup, each device reads the
preloaded BootWare image to RAM,
loads the startup images in the file, and
sets the images as both current
software images and startup software
images.
