Troubleshooting Cisco SAN-OS Software Upgrades and Downgrades
Note
Before exiting the session, be sure that the upgrade process is complete. The wizard displays
status messages as the upgrade proceeds. Check the lower left-hand corner of the wizard for the
status messages. First, the wizard displays the message
Success
followed a few seconds later
by
InProgress Polling
. Then the wizard displays a second message
Success
before displaying
the final
Upgrade Finished
.
Installing Cisco SAN-OS Software from the CLI
To perform an automated software upgrade on any switch from the CLI, follow these steps:
Step 1
Log into the switch through the console, Telnet, or SSH port of the active supervisor.
Step 2
Create a backup of your existing configuration file, if required.
Step 3
Perform the upgrade by issuing the
install all
command.
The example below demonstrates upgrading from SAN-OS 2.0(2b) to 2.1(1a) using the
install all
command with the source images located on a SCP server.
Tip
Always carefully read the output of
install all
compatibility check. This compatibility check
tells you exactly what needs to be upgraded (BIOS, loader, firmware) and what modules are not
hitless. If there are any questions or concerns about the results of the output, select
n
to stop the
installation and contact the next level of support.
