Step 4
If there is not at least 120 MB of memory free for the EPLD files, delete some unneeded files, such as
earlier images, so there is enough free memory.
switch#
delete bootflash:n7000-s1-kickstart.5.2.0.bin
Step 5
Copy the EPLD image file from the FTP or management server to the bootflash or slot0 memory in the
active supervisor module. The following example shows how to copy from the FTP server to the
bootflash memory:
switch#
copy ftp://10.1.7.2/n7000-s1-epld.6.0.1.img bootflash:n7000-s1-epld.6.0.1.img
Step 6
Copy the EPLD image to the standby supervisor.
switch#
copy bootflash:n7000-s1-epld.6.0.1.img bootflash://sup-standby/n7000-s1-epld.6.0+
.1.img
You are ready to upgrade the EPLD images (see the
“Upgrading the EPLD Images” section on
).
Upgrading the EPLD Images
You can upgrade the EPLD images for all of the modules installed in your switch or specific modules
installed in your switch. When you request an upgrade, the Cisco NX-OS software lists the current and
new versions for each EPLD image with the following results:
•
If a module is installed and online, the software lists the installed and new versions for each EPLD.
Where there is a difference in versions, the software indicates an upgrade or downgrade to occur
when you confirm the process.
•
If a module is installed and offline, the software cannot list its current EPLD versions so all EPLDs
will be updated when you confirm the upgrade.
•
If a module is not installed, the software displays an error message and does not upgrade the EPLDs.
