HP UX 11i v2 Networking Software manual Check the Image Version, Enter the privileged-execute mode

There are two types of hardware connections that can be used to download a new image to the system.

•Out-of-Band connection

Connect the server to the switch ethernet management port, if a connection does not already exist.

•In-Band connection

Use a 4x copper cable to connect from an HP Fabric-enabled host to a fabric port on the HP Fabric Switch system.

2. Check the Image Version

This section describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI) to copy the software that runs the system.

Refer to “Deleting Images Through the CLI ” (page 90)

1.Enter the privileged-execute mode.

HP-IB> enable HP-IB#

2.Enter the dir image command.

Note the names of the installed system-images and image files displayed in the file-name column.

If there are already three images installed, there will not enough space for the new image to copy and install. Delete an existing older image before copying the new image (refer to “Deleting System Images and Image Files” (page 90)).
