Cisco Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module (CGESM) for HP Release Notes

You cannot create and manage switch clusters through the device manager. To create and manage switch 
clusters, use the command-line interface (CLI). 

When creating a switch cluster or adding a switch to a cluster, follow these guidelines:

When you create a switch cluster, we recommend configuring the highest-end switch in your cluster 
as the command switch.

The standby command switch must be the same type as the command switch. For example, if the 
command switch is a CGESM switch, all standby command switches must be CGESM switches. 

These are the procedures for downloading software. Before downloading software, read this section for 
important information:

The Cisco IOS image is stored as a bin file in a directory that is named with the Cisco IOS release. 
A subdirectory contains the files needed for web management. The image is stored on the system board 
flash device (flash:).

You can use the show version user EXEC command to display the software version that is running on 
your switch.

You also can use the dir filesystem: privileged EXEC command to see the directory names of other 
software images that you might have stored in flash memory.
