Usage Guidelines

Currently, you can execute only one predefined administrative function on all platforms except the Cisco
SFS 7008. The function (delete-inactive-image) deletes inactive images from one or more cards to
provide more available memory on the card.
Before you use the action command with the delete-inactive-images keyword, enter the
boot-config command with the primary-image-source keyword to install and activate the proper
image on the card. When you execute this command, the previously-active image becomes inactive. You
can now execute the action command to clear the inactive image from your card.
To execute this command, you must have read-write administrative permission for the type(s) of card(s)
that you want to clear.
Examples
The following example deletes inactive images from the card that resides in slot 2:
SFS-7000P(config-card-2)#
action delete-inactive-images
The following example resets a management I/O card on a Cisco SFS 7008:
SFS-270(config-card-15)#
action reset
delete-inactive-image
Removes the inactive image from interface cards. Use the action command
with the delete-inactive-image keyword after the boot-config command
when you upgrade the system image on your Server Switch to clear the
inactive image from the card(s) after a reboot.
reset
Resets the card(s) that you specify in a Cisco SFS 7008.
