• If the versions match, the system downloads the configuration file or preconfiguration
script.
00:03:07: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-2-BMP_DOWNLOAD_START: The config
file download has started.
00:03:19: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-5-BMP_DWNLD_FILE_IS_SCRIPT_FILE:
The downloaded file is a script file.
00:03:19: %STKUNIT0-M:CP
%BMP-5-BMP_DWNLD_CONFIG_SCRIPT_SUCCESS: The config/script file
download is successful.
00:03:21: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-5-BMP_PRE_CONFIG_SCRIPT_BEGIN:
The Pre-Config Script has started to Execute.
..
00:04:30: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-5-BMP_PRE_CONFIG_SCRIPT_END:
Pre-Config script completed with return status 0.
c. If you download the configuration file or preconfiguration script from the server, the flash
ignores any saved startup configuration. If you do not download the configuration file or
preconfiguration script from the server, the startup configuration file on the flash loads in
Normal reload.
7. When the Dell Networking OS build image and configuration file or preconfiguration script
download, the IP address is released.
NOTE: In the preconfiguration script, the DHCP IP address is released after the script executes.
8. The system applies the configuration. The system is now up and running and you can manage it as
usual.
9. SHA256/MD5 hash verifies the integrity of the files BMP downloads. For each file, the relevant
filename.sha256 or filename.md5 must be present in the same location as the file.
a. When you disable FCoE initialization protocol (FIPs) mode:
• If both filename.sha256 and filename.md5 are not present, the image is downloaded
without validation.
• If both filename.sha256 and filename.md5 are present, SHA256 validation has a higher
priority compared with MD5 validation.
• If filename.sha256 or filename.md5 alone is present, the corresponding type of
validation is completed.
b. When you enable FIPs mode:
• MD5 validation is not used. BMP checks only for the filename.sha256 and not
filename.md5.
• If filename.sha256 is present, it uses SHA256 validation or the image downloads without
SHA256 validation.
– Syslog for SHA256VALIDATION success on downloading an image file and
configuration/pre-script file:
00:03:07: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-5-BMP_SHA256_VALIDATE_SUCCESS: The
Dell
Networking OS image SHA256 Checksum Validation Succeeded.
00:01:15: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-5-BMP_SHA256_VALIDATE_SUCCESS: The
Config/Script SHA256 Checksum Validation Succeeded.
– Syslog for SHA256VALIDATION failure on downloading an image file and configuration/
pre-script file:
00:03:22: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %BMP-2-BMP_SHA256_VALIDATE_FAILURE: The
Dell
Networking OS image SHA256 Checksum Validation Failed.
