The
switch(boot)#

Step 4
Issue the
init system
command at the
switch(boot)#
prompt.
switch(boot)#
init system
Caution
Be sure that you have made a backup of the configuration files before you issue this command.
Step 5
Follow the procedure specified in the
“Recovery from the switch(boot)# Prompt” section on page 2-21
.
Recovery from the switch(boot)# Prompt
To recover a system image using the kickstart image for a switch with a single supervisor module, follow
these steps:
Step 1
Change to configuration mode.
switch(boot)#
config t
switch(boot)(config)#
Step 2
Follow this step if you issued an
init system
command. Otherwise, skip to
Step 3
.
a.
Issue the
ip default-gateway
command to configure the IP address of the default gateway.
switch(boot)(config)#
ip default-gateway 209.165.200.226
b.
Configure the IP address of the mgmt0 interface.
switch(boot)(config)#
interface mgmt 0
switch(boot)(config-if)#
ip address 209.165.200.227 255.255.255.0
Step 3
Issue the
no shutdown
command to enable the mgmt0 interface on the switch.
switch(boot)(config-mgmt0)#
no shutdown
Step 4
Enter
end

If you believe there are file system problems, issue the init
system check-filesystem

Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a), this command checks all internal file systems and fixes any errors
that are encountered. This command takes considerable time to complete.
switch(boot)#
init system check-filesytem
Step 6

Copy the kickstart image from the required TFTP server.
switch(boot)#
copy tftp://172.16.10.100/kickstart-image1 bootflash:kickstart-image1
Step 8
Verify that the system and kickstart image files are copied to your bootflash: file system.
switch(boot)#
