If the version of NX-OS is not the same as you intended to use, copy the previously saved images from the
USB drive in usb1 to bootflash: and perform an upgrade to the appropriate version. For more information,
see the
Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Software Upgrade and Downgrade Guide
.
Note
Step 16
Copy the TAR archive containing the license files from the usb1 drive to bootflash:, extract the archive, and install the
licenses by using the
copy
,
tar extract
, and
install license
commands. Repeat the
install license
command for each
extracted license file.
switch(config)#
copy usb1:licenses_archive_file_name.tar bootflash:
switch(config)#
tar extract bootflash:licenses_archive_file_name.tar to bootflash:
switch(config)#
install license bootflash:licenses_archive_file_name.lic
The
tar extract
command requires that the TAR file be located in bootflash: or volatile:.
Note
Step 17
Make sure that all I/O modules are online and that the standby supervisor is in ha-standby mode by using the
show
module
command.
switch(config)#
show module
switch(config)# show module

Step 18
Restore the previously saved configurations by using the
copy
command to copy the configuration file in the USB
drive to the running configuration.
switch(config)#
copy usb1:configuration_file_name running-config
If the imported configuration file includes configurations for Fabric Extenders (FEXs) and those modules
are not up yet, you will see error messages for that. If that happens, we recommend that you run the FEX
configuration again after the FEX modules come online. You can verify the status of the FEX modules and
for the associated server-facing interfaces by using the
show fex
and
show interface brief
commands.
Note
If you have not inserted the standby supervisor module until now, do not insert it during this step. Instead,
wait until you complete this procedure before installing the standby supervisor module.
Note
Step 19
Save the configuration in the startup configuration by using the
copy running-config startup-config vdc-all
command.
switch(config)#
copy running-config startup-config vdc-all
