Configuration and Image Commands
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
1914
The PSU controller firmware is used immediately after it is installed without rebooting the switch. The
new BootROM and firmware overwrite the older versions flashed into the hardware. Use the
reboot
command to reboot the switch and activate the new BootROM and firmware.
During the firmware upgrade, do not cycle down or disrupt the power to the switch. If a power
interruption occurs, the firmware may be corrupted and need to be recovered. ExtremeWare XOS
automatically recovers corrupted firmware; however, the time it takes for the switch to boot-up may
increase.
The switch displays status messages after you use the
install firmware
command. The output varies
depending upon your platform and the software version running on your system.
