64 CHAPTER 5: UPGRADING SOFTWARE
Upgrading from the
Command Line
Interface
This section describes how to upgrade files to your switch from the
Command Line Interface (CLI).
Introduction Before upgrading the software to your switch from the CLI, it is important
to check the contents of the flash to ensure that there is enough space to
download the new files.
The flash space needed for the new files is approximately 5.5 MB.
1 To check the contents of the flash, logon to your switch either using a
telnet connection or directly using the console to display the User View in
the CLI and enter the following:
dir unit1>flash:
A file list similar to the following is displayed:
Directory of unit1>flash:/
15367 KB total (10215 KB free)
2 You can check the contents of the flash for the remaining units in the fabric
by entering:
dir unit2>flash:
dir unit3>flash:
dir unit4>flash:
dir unit5>flash:
dir unit6>flash:
dir unit7>flash:
The file list should contain one of each file type (.zip, .def, .cfg and .app).
