6.3Changing between Multiple Versions of Software

It is possible to select between multiple versions of installed software at any time (not just during an upgrade procedure). You can display all the versions that are installed by typing the following:

localhost::operation flash> dir

FT330.35

CURRENT

FT340.11

However, in this list, CURRENT is simply a pointer to the version that will be used as the current switch software AFTER a reboot. To display the version to which CURRENT is pointing, as well as all the versions that are installed, type the following:

localhost::operation> version

Software versions installed : FT330.35 FT340.11

Current software version is FT330.35

Notice that no parameter for version was speciﬁed above. If no parameter is speciﬁed, it will list the current and installed versions, but will not change anything.

In this example, to change the current version of software from FT330.35 to FT340.11, type the following:

localhost::operation> version FT340.11

Current software version is FT340.11

Software versions installed : FT330.35 FT340.11

NOTE: By using the operation version command and specifying a version, you change the version to which CURRENT is pointing.

For example, an OC-3c network module that is removed from slot A of the old switch fabric must be installed in slot A of the new switch fabric. Therefore, it is recommended that you label all network connections and network modules before removing them Hardware Maintenance Procedures 5-17CAUTION Make sure the replacement board is properly aligned in the slot in the next step Hardware Maintenance Procedures 5-18 CHAPTER Software Upgrade Instructionseject device 6.1 Obtaining the Software Upgrade File via DisketteSoftware Upgrade Instructions tar -xvf deviceSoftware Upgrade Instructions foreextract deviceoperation upgrade ? 6.2 Performing the Software Upgrademkdir /tftpboot mv ﬁlename /tftpbootoperation upgrade 169.144.3.54ASX-200BX4.0.01.3 operation upgrade 169.144.3.54asx-scp4.0.01.3Software Upgrade Instructions Reboot the switchy? y Software Upgrade InstructionsSoftware Upgrade Instructions 6.3 Changing between Multiple Versions of Softwarelocalhostoperation reboot Software Upgrade InstructionsAre you sure you want to reboot this switch n? y Software Upgrade Instructions 6.4 Using bootp to Download Software to the Switch6.4.2 Setting Up Your bootp Server 6.4.1 Overview6-10 6.4.3 Adding an Entry for Your Switch in the bootptab FileSoftware Upgrade Instructions Software Upgrade Instructions 6-11The variables in the previous example are deﬁned as follows 6-12 6.4.4 Setting Up a tftpboot ServerSoftware Upgrade Instructions A.1 Adapter Hardware Troubleshooting TroubleshootingAPPENDIX A Figure A.1 -
