Performing the ISSU Process
The rollback timer cannot be set in LV state, as the following example illustrates:
Switch# show issu state detail
                          Slot = 1
                      RP State = Active
                    ISSU State = Load Version
                 Boot Variable = bootflash:old_image,12
                Operating Mode = RPR
               Primary Version = bootflash:old_image
             Secondary Version = bootflash:new_image
               Current Version = bootflash:old_image
                          Slot = 2
                      RP State = Standby
                    ISSU State = Load Version
                 Boot Variable = bootflash:new_image,12;bootflash:old_image,12
                Operating Mode = RPR
               Primary Version = bootflash:old_image
             Secondary Version = bootflash:new_image
               Current Version = bootflash:new_image
Switch# show issu rollback-timer 
        Rollback Process State = Not in progress
      Configured Rollback Time = 60:00
Switch# configure terminal 
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# issu set rollback-timer 20
% ISSU state should be [ init ] to set the rollback timer
Displaying ISSU Compatibility Matrix Information
The ISSU compatibility matrix contains information about other software images about the version in 
question. This compatibility matrix represents the compatibility of the two software versions, one 
running on the active and the other on the standby supervisor engine, and the matrix allows the system 
to determine the highest operating mode it can achieve. This information helps the user identify whether 
to use ISSU.
Perform this task to display information about the ISSU compatibility matrix:
This example shows how to display negotiated information regarding the compatibility matrix:
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
Switch> enable
Enables privileged EXEC mode. 
• Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2
Switch# show issu comp-matrix 
{negotiated | stored | xml}
Displays information regarding the ISSU compatibility 
matrix.
• negotiated—Displays negotiated compatibility matrix 
information.
• stored—Displays negotiated compatibility matrix 
information
.
• xml—Displays negotiated compatibility matrix 
information in XML format.
