To keep VSMs available, reload the redundant VSB modules separately as described in this
procedure.

DETAILED STEPS

Step 1

From the Cisco Nexus 1010 serial over LAN connection, copy any unsaved configuration from the
running configuration to startup so that it is preserved after the reload.

copy running-config startup-config

Example

switch# copy running-config startup-config

[########################################] 100%

switch#

Step 2

Copy the new software image from the external server to the following directory.

bootflash: \repository

copy scp://user@path/filename bootflash:filename

Example

n1010# copy scp://user@linux-box.cisco.com/home/user/nexus-1010.4.2.1.SP1.1.3.iso

bootflash:repository

Enter vrf (If no input, current vrf 'default' is considered):

user@linux-box.cisco.com's password:

nexus-1010.4.2.1.SP1.1.3.iso 100% 258234 10.3KB/s 00:15

n1010#

Step 3

Install the new image.

install nexus1010 full_path_to_filename

The following things occur on the switch:

•

The new software image is copied to bootflash.

•

Bootflash variables are updated with the names of the new system and kickstart images.

•

The new image and bootflash variable information is saved in the running configuration.

Example

switch# install nexus1010 bootflash:repository/nexus-1010.4.2.1.SP1.1.3.iso

Step 4

Save the new boot parameters in the startup configuration.

switch# copy running-config startup-config
