Following the upgrade guide I am able to put cat9k_lite_iosxe.17.09.04.SPA.bin onto the flash of both switches, however, when I go to do the install add command it fails. I know why it fails, because there isn't any space available to expand the .bin into its applicable .pkg files.
My question is: can I remove cat9k_lite_iosxe.16.12.08.SPA.bin from flash without affecting the 16.12.08 .pkgs so that I can install the 17 .bin and then proceed with the upgrade? After that completes I would run install remove inactive to remove the old 13 .pkgs
more flash:packages.conf returns # pkginfo: Build: 16.12.08 currently.
My thought process is that I can delete cat9k_lite_iosxe.16.12.08.SPA.bin because its essentially a zip file that has already been unpacked to its. .pkgs, but I want to be absolutely sure before I go deleting things from a production device.
