| Removes all firmware image files from the switch. All firmware image files are | |
| removed automatically each time the switch is reset. | |
| fetch [account_name] [ip_address] [file_source] [file_destination] | |
| Retrieves image file given by [file_source] and stores it on the switch with the file | |
| name given by [file_destination]. The image file is retrieved from the FTP server | |
| with the IP address given by [ip_address] and an account name given by | |
| [account_name]. If an account name needs a password to access the FTP server, | |
| the system will prompt you for it. | |
| install | |
| Downloads firmware from a remote host to the switch, installs the firmware, then | |
| resets the switch to activate the firmware. This is disruptive to I/O traffic. The | |
| command prompts you for the following: | |
| | IP address of the remote host |
| | An account name and password on the remote host |
| | Pathname for the firmware image file |
list
Displays the list of image files that reside on the switch.
unpack [file]
Installs the firmware file given by [file]. After unpacking the file, a message appears confirming successful unpacking. The switch must be reset for the new firmware to take effect.
Notes To provide consistent performance throughout the fabric, ensure that all switches are running the same version of firmware.
To install firmware when the management workstation has an FTP server, use the Image Install command or the “Firmware Install Command” on page
