Cisco IMC planning to upgrade from 2.09(13e) to 4.1(f)

[Brandon Matthee]

Good Day

We are planning  an upgrade of the IMC Cisco Firepower Management centre.

Can we upgrade the cisco IMC 2.0(13e) directly to 4.1(f) or any intermediate version?

is any guide available with the steps to reimage the Cisco FMC through Cisco IMC CLI? 

Thanks in advance

You cannot upgrade directly.

Once you have an upgraded CIMC, you can reimage following this procedure (using the KVM tool from the CIMC session):
