Step 4.
Check that the system image is synchronized across all installed cards.

Step 5. (Optional) The system can only hold one installed image, and one uninstalled image. If there are more than
two images on your system, delete any extraneous images before proceeding with an installation.
3. Copy/Download the Image There are two ways that the software can be downloaded from the CLI:
• Through an FTP server (page 75).
• Through a TFTP server (page 76).
Download From an FTP Server
Use FTP to download new image files to the HP Fabric Clustering System Switch system. Uninstalled system-image files
always end with a .img extension. Directory management is automatically performed on the switch system, so do not
include path information for files on the switch chassis.
Step 1. (optional) If you are using In-Band Management, configure the IP management interface (if you have not
already done so).
HP-IB> enable
HP-IB# config
HP-IB(config)# interface mgmt-ether
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#ip address 10.3.102.8. 255.255.0.0
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#gateway 10.3.0.1
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#no shutdown
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)# exit
HP-IB (config) # exit
Step 2. Verify that you have a working ftp server connection, and that you have a user account on the ftp server.
$ftp 10.10.0.5
username:Example
password:xxxxxx
ftp>
Step 3. In the privileged-execute mode, enter the copy command with the source, destination, and FTP user
information.
