update bootcode
This command updates the bootcode (boot loader) on the switch. The bootcode is read from 
the active-image for subsequent reboots. The optional <unit> parameter is valid only on 
Stacks. Error will be returned, if this parameter is provided, on Standalone systems. For 
Stacking, the <unit> parameter identifies the node on which this command must be 
executed. When this parameter is not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a 
Stack.
