Enter
y
to continue the installation and reboot the switch. Enter
n
to cancel.
If you install the image at a later time, the image is still downloaded and saved to the switch, but
you must use the following command to install the software:
install image <fname> {<partition>} {msm <slotid>} {reboot}
NOTE
Unlike ExtremeWare, the
download image
command in ExtremeWare XOS causes the switch to use the newly
downloaded software image during the next switch reboot. To modify or reset the software image used during a
switch reboot, issue the
use image
command.
Installing a Modular Software Package
In addition to the functionality available in the ExtremeWare XOS core image, you can add functionality
to your switch by installing modular software packages. Modular software packages are contained in
files named with the file extension
.xmod
, while the core images use the file extension
.xos
. Modular
software packages are built at the same time as core images and are designed to work in concert with
the core image, so the version number of a modular software package must match the version number
of the core image that it will be running with. For example, the modular software package for Secure
Shell (SSH) named as follows:
bd10K-11.2.0.18-ssh.xmod
can run only with the core image named:
bd10K-11.2.0.18.xos
You can install a modular software package on the active partition or on the inactive partition. You
would install on the active partition if you want to add the package functionality to the currently
running core image without having to reboot the switch. You would install on the inactive partition if
you want the functionality available after a switch reboot.
To install the package, you use the same process that you use to install a new core image. Follow the
process described in the earlier section
“Installing a Core Image” . On the BlackDiamond 10K switch,
you can use hitless upgrade to install the package. See “Understanding Hitless Upgrade—
BlackDiamond 10K Switch Only” on page 597 for more information.
You activate the installed modular software package either by rebooting the switch or by issuing the
following command:
run update
You can uninstall packages by issuing the following command:
uninstall image <fname> <partition> {msm <slotid>} {reboot}
NOTE
Do not terminate a process that was installed since the last reboot unless you have saved your configuration. If you
have installed a software module and you terminate the newly installed process without saving your configuration,
your module may not be loaded when you attempt to restart the process with the
start process
command.
