firmwareRestore
Restores the former active firmware image.
Synopsis firmwarerestore
Description Use this command to restore the former active firmware image. This command can only be run if
autocommit was disabled during the firmwareDownload.
After a firmwareDownload and a reboot (with autocommit disabled), the downloaded firmware
becomes active. If you then do not want to commit the firmware and want to restore the former firmware,
run firmwareRestore. After running firmwareRestore, you can run firmwareDownload again.
This command reboots the system and makes the former firmware active. After reboot, both primary and
secondary partitions restore to the former firmware.
This command only takes action if the system is booted after a firmwareDownload; otherwise, it returns
with an error code.
