Step 16 Verify that the switch is running the required version of the NX-OS software by using the show version
command.
switch(config)# show version
Note If the version of NX-OS is not the same as you intended to use, copy the previously saved images from
the USB drive in SLOT 0 to bootflash: and perform an upgrade to the appropriate version. For more
information, see the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Software Upgrade and Downgrade Guide.
Step 17 Copy the TAR archive containing the license files from the USB SLOT 0 drive to bootflash:, extract the
archive, and install the licenses by using the copy, tar extract, and install license commands. Repeat
the install license command for each extracted license file.
switch(config)# copy slot0:licenses_archive_file_name.tar bootflash:
switch(config)# tar extract bootflash:
licenses_archive_file_name.tar to bootflash:
switch(config)# install license bootflash:
license_file_name.lic
Note The tar extract command requires that the TAR file be located in bootflash: or volatile:.
Step 18 Make sure that all I/O modules are online and that the standby supervisor is in ha-standby mode by using
the show module command.
switch(config)# show module
