You can also install the CSS software on a network drive on an NT system which
the CSS can access through FTP. The Content Services Switch and System
Software compact disk contains the CSS software for the network drive. This
software is in Zip format and must be copied and uncompressed on a network
drive. For more information on configuring a network boot drive, refer to the
Content Services Switch Basic Configuration Guide.
You can install up to four software CSS versions on your CSS hard drive. For a
CSS flash disk, you can install up to two software versions. To view all versions
installed on the CSS, use the show installed-software command.
To view the version currently running on the CSS, use the version command. The
software version format is defined as follows:
From an FTP server, you can view the following directories:
• The log directory contains the following log files:
– boot.log - ASCII log of boot process
– sys.log - ASCII log of system events (logging to disk is enabled by
default to subsystem all and level info)
– boot.bak - Backup of a previous boot log
– sys.log.prev - Backup of a previous system log (if any)
• The scripts directory contains default, profile, and sample scripts
• The core directory contains any core dumps created by the CSS
• The MIB directory contains MIB files which you can load into
SNMP-compliant network management software applications
Note When you view the CSS software directories installed on a network
drive, more directories are listed than those you can view on the CSS
disk. Do not manipulate the files in these directories.
