Upgrading a Single Stack Unit
Upgrading a single stacked switch is necessary when the unit was disabled due to an incorrect Dell
Networking OS version. This procedure upgrades the image in the boot partition of the member unit
from the corresponding partition in the master unit.
To upgrade an individual stack unit with a new Dell Networking OS version, follow the below steps:
1. Download the Dell Networking OS image from the master's boot partition to the member unit, and
upgrade the relevant boot partition in the single stack-member unit.
EXEC Privilege mode
upgrade system stack-unit unit-number partition
2. Reboot the stack unit from the master switch to load the Dell Networking OS image from the same
partition.
