Switches are shipped with 128 MB of flash memory. This
memory is used to store files, including boot and image files
that are used for switch operations.

that are used for switch operations.
The /flash directory contains two subdirectories: /working and
/certified. These directories work together to provide the
image rollback resiliency feature. Image rollback allows the
switch to return to a prior “last known good” version of soft-
ware in the event of a system software problem.

Working Directory
The /flash/working directory is intended for software that is
still being configured for your network. Changes made while
configuring your switch are saved to the boot.cfg file in the
/flash/working directory.

configuring your switch are saved to the boot.cfg file in the

Once the /flash/working directory’s configuration and image
files are road-tested and considered valid and reliable for your
network, they can be copied to the /flash/certified directory.

Certified Directory
The software in the /flash/certified directory should be treated
as the “gold master” for the switch. When you place configu-
ration and image files in this directory, you are “certifying”
them as tested and reliable. If the switch is running from the
/flash/working directory and experiences a software problem,
it will “roll back” to the last known good software in the
/flash/certified directory on the next reboot.

On reload: If the Working and Certified
directories are identical, the switch will
automatically run from software in this
directory. If the two directories are not
identical, you can instruct the switch to run
from the Working directory by issuing the
reload working command.
