The BootWare program is upgraded together with the Comware application program. You do not
need to upgrade the BootWare program separately. After you upgrade the Comware application
program to the latest version and restart the device, the system checks whether the current
BootWare version is consistent with the one in the host application. If not, the system automatically
upgrades the BootWare program.
z
When a service card is started up, it automatically checks the current BootWare version. If the
BootWare version bound to the Comware application program is different from the current
BootWare version, the system upgrades the current BootWare version automatically.
z
To use correct files for upgrading, check the current versions of the BootWare and Comware
application programs. For associations between Comware versions and BootWare versions, refer
to the hardware and software compatibility matrix in
