Hi guys,
We have a whole bunch of Cisco WS-C3650-12X48UQ switches, which were shipped with a now deferred Denali IOS XE release.
Obviously we now need to upgrade. These switches were shipped with their IOS running in INSTALL mode. The upgrade process/commands for this mode is quite straightforward;
- copy image to flash
- run command "software install file flash:file.bin switch #"
- wait, save config, reload
However, the "software" commands are not present in privileged exec, nor configure terminal!
When attempting to run the BUNDLE mode to upgrade, it refuses to boot, and slings me out to the bootloader. I can restart the old IOS using the command "boot flash:packages.conf", but I'm back to square 1.
What is one supposed to do here?
I'd rather not use BUNDLE mode if possible, due to the additional memory constraints - but may have to if no other upgrade method works. Is this yet ANOTHER Denali bug?
Thanks.
