Command Remarks
1. Specify main or backup
startup image files for the
global active MPU.
• Method 1:
boot-loader file ipe-filename
chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number { backup | main }
• Method 2:
boot-loader file boot
boot-package system
system-package [ feature
feature-package&<1-30> ]
chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number { backup | main }
Upgrade files must be saved in the root
directory of the storage medium on the
global active MPU.
If the storage medium is partitioned,
save the files to the root directory of the
first partition.
Make sure the following filename
format requirements are met:
• If method 1 is used, the file name
must use the
storage-medium:/base-filename.ip
e format, for example,
flash:/startup.ipe.
• If method 2 is used, all file names
must use the
storage-medium:/base-filename.bi
n format, for example,
flash:/startup-boot.bin.
2. Specify the main startup
images for each standby
MPU in the IRF fabric.
• Method 1:
boot-loader file ipe-filename
chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number { backup | main }
• Method 2:
boot-loader file boot
boot-package system
system-package [ feature
feature-package&<1-30> ]
chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number { backup | main }
• Method 3:
boot-loader update chassis
chassis-number slot
slot-number
Skip this step if you have only one
single-MPU device.
When you use method 3, make sure
you understand the following
requirements and upgrade results:
• If the active MPU started up with
main startup images, its main
startup images are synchronized to
the standby MPU. This
synchronization occurs regardless
of whether any change has been
made to this set of startup images.
• If the active MPU started up with
backup startup images, its backup
startup images are synchronized to
the standby MPU. This
synchronization occurs 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 is not
available.
3. Save the running
configuration.
save
This step makes sure any configuration
you have made can survive a reboot.
4. Reboot the IRF fabric.
reboot
At startup, the MPUs read the
preloaded BootWare image to RAM
and load the startup images.
5. (Optional.) Verify the
software image settings.
display boot-loader [ chassis
chassis-number [ slot
slot-number ] ]
Verify that the current software images
are the same as the startup software
images.
