Hi everyone, I am upgrading a pair of 4500X in VSS from 3.08 to 3.11, rommon version is "15.0(1r)SG12" I did not see anything in the release notes, that would stop me from doing the upgrade, I am planning to do the following steps.
Action | Command |
Backup current IOS | copy bootflash: tftp: |
Copy new IOS | copy tftp: bootflash:IMAGE |
copy bootflash: slavebootflash:IMAGE | |
Verify | dir bootflash: |
dir slavebootflash: | |
Verify MD5 Hash | verify /md5 bootflash:IMAGE |
verify /md5 slavebootflash:IMAGE | |
Remove current Boot System | Configure terminal no boot system flash bootflash:IMAGE |
Verify | show bootvar Seen in show tech -- register 0x2102 |
Set new image | Configure terminal |
boot system flash bootflash:IMAGE | |
boot system flash slavebootflash:IMAGE | |
Save configuration | write |
Reload both Master and Slave | redundancy reload shelf |
Does anyone with more experience see anything wrong or am I missing anything?
Thanks

you do not require.

Do you have any experience with the boot system having to specify the slavebootflash and bootflash? or is just setting up bootflash is enough for both?
no boo system bootflash:old_ios.bin boot system bootflash:ROMMON_filename boot system bootflash:NEW_IOS_filename.bin boot system bootflash:OLD_IOS_filename.bin

VSS you need to use copying files active bootflash: (primary) you can copy from bootflash to slavebootflash: (this is secondary device)
Boot variable only bootflash:

This stage does not provide any benefit.
Just wanted to make sure that the file is there
