System information
No
te: The values of x, xxxxxxxx, and xxxxxxxxxxxx vary depending on the status of the active
system.
Note: These log messages will be displayed in the following cases:
- When a version of the software earlier than 11.2 is installed on the active system and is
updated
- When a version of the software earlier than 10.5 is installed on the standby system and is
updated
Multiple users cannot concurrently execute the ppupdate command. If the command is
already being executed when you attempt to execute it, the command aborts with the message
another user is executing now. However, if the ppupdate command ends
abnormally (for example, the command is forced to stop by pressing Ctrl + C, or a forced
logout occurs because communication software is terminated), this message might be issued
and you will not be able to execute the command again, even though only one instance of the
command is being executed.
In this case, execute the rm /tmp/ppupdate.exec command, and then execute the
ppupdate command again.
The ppupdate command cannot be executed in configuration mode.
Back up the configuration before updating the software.
After editing the configuration online, if the file has not been saved, use the save
configuration command to save the file to flash memory before updating the software. If
you do not execute the save command, when the Switch is restarted, the Switch returns to the
state existing before the configuration was changed.
The configuration stored in the internal flash memory is also used for the new version. If the
number of configuration definitions being stored is too large, inheriting the configuration file
might take a while. When downgrading, if there are any configuration items not supported by
the downgraded version, those configuration items are deleted and the Switch runs without
them.
