grflash provides the ability to upgrade flash code at customer sites. The grflash command 
reprograms (reburns) the code in internal flash (the boot loader). This is different than updating 
the system software with a new release. Typically, new software releases are loaded into the 
system and then downloaded into the specific type of media card, they do not require burning 
into internal flash. The reburn procedure is done only under direction of Customer Support.
Please work with Customer Support to schedule a session with them in the rare instance that 
the grflash command is needed. If not carefully and correctly done, the reburn process could 
disable the memory component and the SP Switch Router. A grflash man page is available, 
and the command is also described in the GRF Reference Guide
