Chapter 7 Software Images
Automated Upgrades
As shown in
Table 7-5
, Layer 3 Intelligent Storage Services traffic is disrupted when you update the SSI
boot image. If you have configured Layer 3 Intelligent Storage Services on your SSM, we recommend
that you shut down these services before upgrading the SSI boot image. You can use dual fabric
configuration to minimize the impact of shutting down Layer 3 services. See
Chapter 11, “Managing
Modules,”
for more information on updating the boot images on the SSM.
Sample install all Commands
Example 7-4
displays the result of the
install all
command issued from a console terminal that is
connected to the active supervisor module. Once a switchover happens, you can see the rest of the output
from the console terminal of the standby supervisor module.
Example 7-5
displays the file output
continuation of the
install all
command on the console of the standby supervisor module.
Example 7-6
displays the result of the
install all
command issued from a console terminal for a system that contains
an SSI image.
Similarly, you can view the results of the
install all
command issued from the SSH or Telnet terminal
that is connected to the active supervisor module. Once a switchover happens, you need to log back into
the switch and issue the
show install all status
command (see the
“Upgrade Status Verification” section
on page 7-20
).
