main image (i.e. the primary file), but uses the backup image (i.e. the backup file)
instead when the primary one has any error. Refer to section
7.4 “Booting the
Switch with Dual Images” on page
7-14 for details.
z The S7502 also supports the upgrade by using a combined Boot ROM file, that is,
upgrading the Boot ROM of all cards using a combined Boot ROM file. Refer to
section
7.5 “Loading a Host Software Containing the Boot ROM File” on page 7-16
for details.
Assume that:
z The main boot file is SWITCH002.app.
z The active host software is SWITCH001.app.
z The Boot ROM program is SWITCHbtm.btm.
