Chapter 7      Managing Firmware and Configurations
  Working with Software Images
If you specify the /leave-old-sw, the existing files are not removed. If there is not enough space to install 
the new image and keep the running image, the download process stops, and an error message is 
displayed.
The algorithm installs the downloaded image onto the system board flash device (flash:). The image is 
placed into a new directory named with the software version string, and the BOOT path-list is updated 
to point to the newly installed image. Use the privileged EXEC mode show boot command to display 
boot attributes, and use the global configuration boot command to change the boot attributes.
If you kept the old image during the download process (you specified the /leave-old-sw keyword), you 
can remove it by entering the delete /force /recursive filesystem:/file-url privileged EXEC command. 
For filesystem, use flash: for the system board flash device. For file-url, enter the directory name of the 
old software image. All the files in the directory and the directory are removed.
Uploading an Image File by Using FTP
You can upload an image from the WMIC to an FTP server. You can later download this image to the 
same WMIC or to another WMIC of the same type.
Caution
For the download and upload algorithms to operate properly, do not rename image directories.
The upload feature is available only if the HTML pages associated with the Cluster Management Suite 
(CMS) have been installed with the existing image.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to upload an image to an FTP server:
