Table B-70 install Command Argument Descriptions

Argument

Description

image

Specifies the file resides in the image file-system.

file

The name of the image file to install.

Image files must reside in the image file-system and the file name must have the .img extension.

Command Modes: Privileged-execute mode.

Privilege Level: Unrestricted read-write user.

Usage Guidelines: After downloading the image file to the chassis controller, it must be installed. The CLI install command performs everything necessary to install a new system-image to flash disk. It automatically installs all necessary firmware and component images. Once installed, the administrator must reinitialize the chassis using the newly installed system-image.

Run the boot-config command to specify the new system-image to use to initialize the chassis when it boots up.

Only cards with an oper-status of up are updated. If a card is down when you run install, or a card is added after running install, bring up the card and run install again. Specify the same image file. If the image is already installed on a card, that card is skipped. Run the boot-config command again so that all cards know to boot from the same system-image.

Examples:

HP-IB# install image:HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.img Proceed with install? [yes(default) no]

************************* operation completed successfully

Defaults: This command has no defaults.
