Upgrade question 1010

[Jeffrey Cirisan]

I will be upgrading a pair of nexus 1010 and understand that this needs to be done frome the cimc connection. I do not see a copy command available in the cimc CLI to copy the image with. What am I missing.

Thanks

Jeff,

Are you logged into the 1010 via Serial Over LAN ?

Yes I am ssh to the cimc ineterface. When I do a ?  this is what is avialable

ucs-c200-m2#

  commit   Batch commit changes

  connect  Connect to other console

  discard  Discard all changes

  exit     Exit from command interpreter

  scope    Changes the current mode

  set      Set property values

  show     Show system information

  top      Go to the top mode

You haven't connected to the SOL yet...

Issue "connect host" - taken from the Doc above.  Then you'll see the appropriate commands available once correctly logged in via SOL.

Step 2 Connect to the Cisco Nexus 1010 CLI.

connect host

When I try to connect to host I get  "CISCO Serial Over LAN disabled"  am I missing some configuration?

[Robert Burns]

Server# scope sol
Server /sol # set enabled yes
Server /sol *# set baud-rate 115200
Server /sol *# commit

Now it connects:

CISCO Serial Over LAN:

Close Network Connection to Exit

But I don't seem to get a response when I type

I had a similar issue and ran the same commands to enable sol on my first Nexus 1010. Before doing so on the second 1010, I ran the show command under scope sol and saw that it was set to 9600 baud. I changed to 9600 baud on the first Nexus 1010 and all worked ok. I guess 115200 doesn't work unless it's configured somewhere else. Hopefully this helps someone else who finds this thread
