SSM Issues
kickstart variable = bootflash:/boot-2-0-1-9
system variable =
bootflash:/isan-2-0-1-9;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b

kickstart variable = bootflash:/boot-2-0-1-9
system variable =
bootflash:/isan-2-0-1-9;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b;bootflash:/isan-2-0-0-181b
Module 4
ssi variable = modflash://4-1/m9000-ek9-ssi-mz.2.1.2.bin
Step 8 Save the new boot variable configuration so that the new boot image is used when the switch reboots.
switch# copy running-config startup-config
Note If you do not save this configuration, it is lost when the switch reboots. In addition, SSM restarts
in Fibre Channel switching mode. You must perform this procedure again to recover the SSI boot
image configuration.
Step 9 Issue the show module command to verify the status of the SSM.
switch# show module

Recovering a Replacement SSM
In Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(2) and later, you use the CompactFlash memory (modflash:) on the
SSM to store the SSI image. If the SSM is replaced, the new SSM might not initialize.
To recover the SSM, follow these steps:
Step 1 Log in to the switch through the console port, an SSH session, or a Telnet session.
Step 2 Display the values assigned to the SSI image boot variable for each module and note the values for later
reference.
