Due to the complexity of this command and the options available, the system will
display the following screen and ask for input (

version-override
This option allows the command to continue if the version specified
is older than the version in memory. This would normally result in
the command aborting because the upgrade is not moving to a
newer version of the software. If the version-override option is used
and the version on the primary MSS device is older than the current
version in memory then the save translation step will be skipped.

and the version on the primary MSS device is older than the current
version in memory then the save translation step will be skipped.
save-translation
This option will override the internal system and save translation.
The switch will not save translation if the version in memory is
newer than the version to be booted. With this option the translation
will be saved regardless of the software version.

will be saved regardless of the software version.
no-translation
This option will cause the system not to save translation. When the
upgrade is from an older to a newer release, the system will save
translation, even if the translation is incompatible between the two
particular releases. There may be rare occasions when there may
be this incompatibility and therefore this option will keep the
translation from being saved on the new version.

preserve-calls
The system may automatically not preserve calls because of the
compatibility index, which signals a potential memory mismatch
across the processors. Compatibility index major numbers must be
identical, and the minor must either be identical or greater going
forward for the upgrade to automatically be call preserving. This
option will override the software determination of call preservation,
and force the memory from the active to be sent to standby
processor in an attempt to preserve calls. This option should be
used with care, because attempting to preserve calls when the
internal memory layout is not compatible will result in processor
escalation to an eventual reboot.
