Bootcode and Firmware Commands
update bootcode
This command updates the bootcode (boot loader) on the switch. The bootcode is read from the primary image
for subsequent reboots. The
unit parameter identifies the node on which this command must be executed.
When this parameter is not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a stack.
update cpld
This command updates the CPLD firmware code on the switch if a new CPLD is found. The CPLD firmware is
embedded in the primary image. After issuing this command, the switch checks the version of CPLD in the
firmware against the version on the device. If an applicable update is found, you are prompted to confirm the
update. If you choose to proceed, the update continues. Upon completion, the chassis automatically power
cycles the switch after successfully programming the CPLD. All connections to the server cartridges are lost
until the switch boots. The update can take up to 10 minutes. If the existing CPLD version is the same as the
new CPLD version, the command displays a
no cpld update message.
Example: The following example shows the output of the
update cpld command when an applicable
update is found:
(Routing) #update cpld
CPLD Update takes about 10 minutes and the switch will power cycle automatically.
