IOSXE Upgrade 3850 - Clean up Flash

Anup Sasikumar
Level 1
Level 1

Hey All!

Need your help please,

We are needed to do an upgrade of IOS-XE on a two switch 3850 stack. ( Switch 2 is the master)

We are going from 3.07.3E to the newer 16.3.5b

(Earlier we had done an upgrade from 3.3.4SE to the current version 3.07.3E to support GRE capabilities )

As the newer IOS is a bit heavy around 514MB, I want to make sure we have enough space in flash to copy the IOS and the later installation processes.

Can you please help me to understand which all files are safe to be removed from Flash?

From my understanding , I could safely delete all .pcap/pcapng , txt files , .pkg files of the older 3.3.4 installation. 

I have included below the flash ,flash-1 contents.

Please suggest!

 

Switch Ports Model              SW Version        SW Image              Mode
------ ----- -----              ----------        ----------            ----
     1 32    WS-C3850-24S       03.07.03E         cat3k_caa-universalk9 INSTALL
*    2 32    WS-C3850-24S       03.07.03E         cat3k_caa-universalk9 INSTALL

The filenames listed in the flash directory have 16.3.9 in the file name. What do you mean not related to 16.3.9?

 

That was a type-o.
I meant I'm seeing all 16.3.9 files so you've cleaned out the old files.
