Upgrading <strong>the</strong> Boot Flash Image<br />

Sometimes a boot flash image (boot code) upgrade is required when upgrading <strong>the</strong> <strong>FTOS</strong> image. Read <strong>the</strong><br />

release notes to determine when you need to upgrade.<br />

In some cases <strong>the</strong> system notifies you when you must upgrade. For example, a boot code upgrade is<br />

required when upgrading <strong>the</strong> C-<strong>Series</strong> to <strong>FTOS</strong> version 7.5.1.0, and <strong>the</strong> system displays Message 32 if an<br />

upgrade is required <strong>for</strong> partition A, partition B, or both.<br />

Message 32 Boot Flash Upgrade Required<br />

%RPM0-P:CP %DOWNLOAD-5-NEEDUPGRADE: Detected cp boot flash A and B's version lower than 2.4.1.1.<br />

It is mandatory to upgrade boot flash to 2.4.1.1 or above <strong>for</strong> system image version 7.2.1.0 or above.<br />

Upgrading <strong>the</strong> Boot Flash Image on E-<strong>Series</strong> and C-<strong>Series</strong><br />

This procedure is only <strong>for</strong> plat<strong>for</strong>ms c e<br />

There are two methods <strong>for</strong> upgrading <strong>the</strong> boot code:<br />

1. Upgrade using <strong>the</strong> boot flash image packed with <strong>the</strong> currently running <strong>FTOS</strong> image. Use <strong>the</strong> command<br />

show os-version to view <strong>the</strong> boot codes that are packed with <strong>the</strong> <strong>FTOS</strong> image (Figure 505), and<br />

compare it to <strong>the</strong> one that is required. If <strong>the</strong>y do not match, you must upgrade using a bootflash image<br />

packed with ano<strong>the</strong>r <strong>FTOS</strong> image.<br />
