To Download the New Software.
Your ProCurve Series 5300xl Switches support several different
methods for downloading new operating system software. For instructions on how to download the
new software, please see appendix A, “File Transfers” in the
Management and Configuration Guide
on the
Documentation CD-ROM
included with your switch.
Saving the Configuration After Installing or Exchanging a Module
The following cases automatically result in a change to the running-configuration on your switch:
■
If you replace a module with another module of a different type and then reboot the switch
■
If you install a module in a slot that has not previously been used (including when you install
a module and apply power to the switch for the first time)
If you want to save such changes to permanent memory (startup-configuration), use the
write memory
command in the switch console. This causes the switch to use the new hardware configuration for
subsequent reboots. (The switch always reboots from the startup-configuration.)
If you do not save the hardware changes to the startup-configuration, you will be prompted with the
following message the next time you use the
boot
or
reload
commands:
Do you want to save the current configuration [y/n] ?
