Set up file system on circuit pack
Before you can load files onto the source circuit pack, you must first set up a file
system on the circuit pack to accept the files.
1. Log onto the switch using superuser or services login and password.
2. Type enable filesystem board <UUCSS> login <ftplogin>
<ftppassword> [size actual_size], where
■ ftplogin is any temporary login for this FTP session, for example,
denver.
■ ftppassword is any temporary login for this FTP session, for
example, broncos.
and press Enter.
You will use this same ftplogin and ftppassword later in the ‘‘FTP the new
firmware image file’’ section.
NOTE:
The size actual_size qualifier only works with TN799C (C-LAN). It
allows you to specify a smaller filesystem size than the default 1MB
block (maximum) allocated.
If the source circuit pack does not have enough available memory,
delete old files (remove file board <UUCSS> <filename>) or wait
until there is less traffic on the board.
!
CAUTION:
The ftplogin and ftppassword will remain on the TN799DP (C-LAN)
and TN2501AP (VAL) circuit packs until they are reset or until you
issue the disable filesystem board <UUCSS> command.
FTP the new firmware image file
The following steps are generic to most FTP programs. Use your laptop/PC/UNIX
to complete this procedure.
1. Ensure that the new firmware image file is in the same directory from which
you will launch the FTP session.
2. Type ping <source_ip_address> and press
Enter to verify a
communication link to the source board.
3. Type ftp <source_ip_address> and press Enter.
4. Log in to the source circuit pack with the same ftplogin and ftppassword
that you used in the ‘‘Set up file system on circuit pack’’ section.
■ ftplogin is any temporary login for this FTP session, for example,
denver.
■ ftppassword is any temporary login for this FTP session, for
example, broncos.
