Software versions installed and running on a device
• Primary flash – The default local storage device for image files and configuration files.
• Secondary flash – A second flash storage device. You can use the secondary flash to store
redundant images for additional booting reliability or to preserve one software image while
testing another one.
Only one flash device is active at a time. By default, the primary image will become active upon
reload.
You can update the software contained on a flash module using TFTP to copy the update image
from a TFTP server onto the flash module. In addition, you can copy software images and
configuration files from a flash module to a TFTP server.
NOTE
Brocade devices are TFTP clients but not TFTP servers. You must perform the TFTP transaction from
the Brocade device. You cannot “put” a file onto the Brocade device using the interface of your TFTP
server.
NOTE
If you are attempting to transfer a file using TFTP but have received an error message, refer to
“Diagnostic error codes and remedies for TFTP transfers” on page 93.
