Using the Cisco CDS Software Recovery CD-ROM
A software recovery CD-ROM image (.iso file) is available for each software release. The recovery
CD-ROM can be used to recover system software that must be completely reimaged. The recovery
CD-ROM image contains the system software for a single software release and a single application
software.
This section presents instructions for creating and using the software recovery CD-ROM to reinstall your
system software if for some reason the software that is installed has failed.
Caution If you upgraded your software with a later release than the software recovery CD-ROM image file you
downloaded, using the CD-ROM software recovery images may downgrade your system.
System Software Components
Cisco CDS software consists of three basic components:
• Disk-based software
• Flash-based software
• Hardware platform cookie (stored in flash memory)
All of these components must be correctly installed for Cisco CDS software to work properly.
The software is contained in two types of software images provided by Cisco:
• A .bin image containing disk and flash memory components
An installation containing only the CDS flash memory-based software, without the corresponding
disk-based software, boots and operates in a limited mode, allowing for further disk configuration
before completing a full installation.
• A .sysimg image containing a flash memory component only
