Software upgrade commands
As a best practice, store the startup images in a fixed storage medium. If you store the startup images in a hot swappable storage medium, do not remove the hot swappable storage medium during the startup process.
boot-loader file
Use boot-loader file to specify startup image files.
Syntax
boot-loader file boot filename system filename [ feature filename&<1-30> ] [ patch filename&<1-30> ] { all | slot slot-number } { backup | main }
boot-loader file ipe-filename [ patch filename&<1-30> ] { all | slot slot-number } { backup | main }

Parameters
boot: Specifies a boot image file.
system: Specifies a system image file.
feature: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 30 feature image files.
patch: Specifies a space-separated list of up to 30 incremental patch image files or 16 non-incremental patch image files. Because the boot, system, and feature images each can have one non-incremental patch image file, you can specify a maximum of 16 non-incremental patch image files.
filename: Specifies a .bin file in the filesystemname/filename.bin format. The file must be stored in the root directory of a file system on the device. Excluding the file system location section (if any), the value string can have a maximum of 63 characters. For more information about specifying a file, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
ipe-filename: Specifies an .ipe image package file in the filesystemname/filename.ipe format. The file must be stored in the root directory of a file system on the device. Excluding the file system location section (if any), the value string can have a maximum of 63 characters. For more information about specifying a file, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
all: Specifies all hardware components to which the specified images apply.
slot slot-number: Specifies the slot number of the device, which is fixed at 1.
backup: Specifies the files as backup startup image files. Backup images are used only when main images are not available.
main: Specifies the files as main startup image files. The device always first attempts to start up with main startup files.
Usage guidelines
The boot-loader file command overwrites the entire startup image list. To add new startup feature images, specify all feature image files in the old startup image list, including feature image files. The new startup image list will contain only the feature image files that are specified in the command.
To load the specified startup software images, you must reboot the system.
If the upgrade images are not found in the file system on the slot specified to upgrade, the system automatically copies the images to that file system. The destination directory is the root directory of the file system. If the destination root directory already contains a startup image with the same name as an upgrade image, you must choose whether to overwrite the image.
|
|
NOTE: The system will verify the digital signature of the specified images before it updates the startup image list with the specified images. If the digital signature verification fails, the system will not update the startup image list and you will receive a digital signature verification failure message. |

Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
slot slot-number-list: Specifies the slot number of the device, which is fixed at 1.
Usage guidelines
A BootWare is divided into a Normal area and a Backup area. The BootWare image is stored in the Normal area and backed up to the Backup area. At startup, the system reads the BootWare image automatically from the Normal area. If the image is inaccessible, the system reads the BootWare image from the Backup area.
If the BootWare image in the Normal area is corrupted or requires a version rollback, use the bootrom restore command to copy the BootWare image in the Backup area to the Normal area.
Examples
# Back up the entire BootWare image from the Normal area to the Backup area.
<Sysname> bootrom backup slot 1
Now backing up the Boot ROM, please wait...
......Done.

Parameters
file file: Specifies the file that contains the BootWare image. The file argument represents the file name, a string of 1 to 63 characters.
slot slot-number-list: Specifies the slot number of the device, which is fixed at 1.
Usage guidelines
BootWare images are contained in the .bin Comware boot image file. You can specify a Comware boot image file in this command to upgrade the BootWares in the system before you upgrade the Comware images. If you do not upgrade BootWares before upgrading Comware images, the system automatically upgrades BootWares as necessary when loading Comware images.
The new BootWare images take effect after you reboot the device.
|
|
NOTE: The system verifies a BootWare image before it loads that image to the Normal area of BootWare. If the digital signature verification fails, the system will not load the image and you will receive a digital signature verification failure message. |
Examples
# Use the file a.bin in the root directory of the flash memory to upgrade the BootWare image.
<Sysname> bootrom update file flash:/a.bin slot 1

slot slot-number: Specifies the slot number of the device, which is fixed at 1.
test: Only identifies the ISSU method to be used for the upgrade. If you do not specify this keyword, the command activates the specified software images.
Usage guidelines
This command requires that all image files on the startup software image list be the same version after the upgrade is finished. It can be executed successfully only if the boot, system, and feature image files on the list are the same version after the upgrade. Before being executed successfully, this command uninstalls all existing patch image files on the list automatically.
If this command fails, perform the following tasks:
· If some features are not needed anymore, disable the features and use the install deactivate command to uninstall the feature images.
· Obtain the image files that are required to make sure all image files on the startup software image list are the same version after the upgrade.
· Specify the image files for this command to activate the images.
An image runs in memory immediately after it is activated. For an activated image to run after a reboot, you must commit the software change by using the install commit command.
