Besides a regular boot of the switch (from the certified directory), you can also force the switch to boot 
from the working directory. This is useful for checking whether a new configuration or image file will 
boot the switch correctly, before committing it to the certified directory. (For information on saving the 
working directory to the certified directory, see 

.)

The following picture illustrates the case of a switch being rebooted from the working directory: 

In the above diagram:

1 The certified directory is used to initially boot the switch.

2 Changes are made to the configuration file and are saved to the configuration file in the working direc-
tory by using the 

 command, described in the section 

3 The switch is rebooted from the working directory by using the 

command.

When a reload working command is entered, the switch prohibits a takeover from the secondary CMM. 
Switch functions are suspended until the boot process is complete.

If you decide against using the new software booted from the working directory, the switch can revert to 
the software stored in the certified directory by using the 

 command as described 

in 

, or by using the reload 

command as described in 

.
