Updating unified images
Use the Configuration Wizard to update firmware images. You can access the Configuration Wizard
using one of the following methods:
• Select Configure > Configuration Wizard.
• Complete the following steps.
a. Select Configure > Firmware > Management.
b. Click the Unified Firmware Images tab on the Firmware Management dialog box.
c. Click Update.
Refer to “Modifying a payload configuration” on page 774 for information on updating firmware
images using the Configuration Wizard.
For NetIron CER/CES devices running 5.4, when deploying the simplified firmware image from 5.4
to 5.5, complete the following steps.
1. Upgrade the simplified firmware image from 5.4 to 5.5.
Note that the FPGA image fails to download.
2. Reload the product.
3. Upgrade the FPGA (pbifmetro.bin) image manually.
4. Reload the product.
Deploying unified images to products
The Management application stores previously imported unified images. These images can be
placed in a unified image payload and deployed to products using the Configuration Wizard.
NOTE
Firmware images deploy to products one device at a time. If a combination of cluster nodes is
selected and the standalone VDX switches are targets, the deployment occurs for the cluster nodes
as well as for the standalone VDX switches.
Deleting unified images from the Management application
If a unified image must be deleted from the Management application, perform the following steps.
1. Click the Unified Firmware Images tab on the Firmware Management dialog box.
2. Select the unified image that you want to delete.
3. Click the Delete button.
A confirmation warning displays.
4. Click Yes to continue with the delete, or No to cancel it.
