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: Module Image Running-Version New-Version Upg-Required ------ ---------------- ---------------------- ---------------------- ------------ 1 system 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 1 kickstart 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 1 bios v3.6.0(05/09/2012) v3.6.0(05/09/2012) no 1 power-seq v1.0 v3.0 yes 1 SFP-uC v1.0.0.0 v1.0.0.0 no 2 power-seq v0.0 v1.0 yes 3 power-seq v5.0 v5.0 no 103 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 104 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 106 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 109 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 110 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 113 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 126 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 128 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 129 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 130 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 134 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 150 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 151 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 154 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 155 fexth 7.0(5)N1(1) 7.1(4)N1(1) yes 1 microcontroller v1.2.0.1 v1.2.0.1 no
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.
