Step 3
If necessary, upgrade the Cisco MDS SAN-OS software that is running on your switch.
Step 4
Issue the
dir bootflash:
or
dir slot0:
command to verify that the EPLD software image file
corresponding to your Cisco MDS SAN-OS release is present on the active supervisor module. For
example, if your switch is running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2), you must have
m9000-epld-2.1.2.img in bootflash: or slot0: on the active supervisor module.

Step 5
If you need to obtain the appropriate EPLD software image file, follow these steps:
a.
Download the EPLD software image file from Cisco.com to your FTP server.
b.
Verify that you have enough free space available on the active and standby supervisor memory
devices that you plan to use, either bootflash: or slot0:. The download site on Cisco.com shows the
size of the EPLD image file in bytes.
The following example shows how to display the available memory for the bootflash: devices on the
active and standby supervisor module.
