Switch Memory and Configuration
Using Primary and Secondary Flash Image Options
1. First verify that a usable flash image exists in secondary flash. The most
reliable way to ensure this is to reboot the switch from the flash image
you want to retain. For example, if you are planning to erase the primary
image, then first reboot from the secondary image to verify that the
secondary image is present and acceptable for your system:
ProCurve# boot system flash secondary
2. Then erase the software image in the selected flash (in this case, primary):
The prompt shows which flash
location will be erased.
Figure 6-11. Example of Erase Flash Prompt
3. Type
y
at the prompt to complete the flash erase.
4. Use
show flash
to verify erasure of the selected software flash image
The "
0
" here
shows that
primary flash has
been erased.

Rebooting the Switch
The switch offers reboot options through the
boot
and
reload
commands, plus
the options inherent in a dual-flash image system. Generally, using
boot
provides more comprehensive self-testing; using
reload
gives you a faster
reboot time.
