upgrading power sequencer on 5548UP Switch

from88
Level 4
Level 4

hello!

 

 

The situation is that i've 5548UP Switch with very old software version:

 

Software
BIOS: version 3.6.0
loader: version N/Acis
kickstart: version 7.0(5)N1(1)
system: version 7.0(5)N1(1)
Power Sequencer Firmware:
Module 1: version v1.0
Module 2: version v0.0
Module 3: version v5.0
Microcontroller Firmware: version v1.2.0.1
SFP uC: Module 1: v1.0.0.0
QSFP uC: Module not detected
BIOS compile time: 05/09/2012
kickstart image file is: bootflash:///n5000-uk9-kickstart.7.0.5.N1.1.bin
kickstart compile time: 10/29/2014 22:00:00 [10/30/2014 07:30:37]
system image file is: bootflash:///n5000-uk9.7.0.5.N1.1.bin
system compile time: 10/29/2014 22:00:00 [10/30/2014 12:45:59

 

I don't know how it happened but seems like this switch power sequencer version is older than it should be by existing 7.0(5)N1(1). I know that because other switch in a pair has newer Power sequencer version with the same software version. I think it could by because someone installed this device in a wrong way - for example not with install all, but with setting the boot variables and restarting the switch.

 

So, i have googled the right path to upgrade the software, the next step will be version 7.1.4.N1.1, and by doing show install all impact I see: 

 

Images will be upgraded according to following table:

So by looking at this everything should be ok, i will upgrade the switch, after that i will do the reload with power-cycle option.

Is there anything i should take into action more ? It's some type of not ordinary situation because the current software (i guess) was installed not in the right way. Or maybe i would need to reinstall the current  one 7.0(5)N1(1) ?

 

Thanks

Note After a successful power sequence upgrade, you must switch off the power to the system and then power it up.
