Backup and Recovery Procedures
Step 3 When the installer menu appears, choose Option 7: Wipe Out Disks and Install .bin Image. (The
installer menu options are described in the next section.)
Step 4 Wait for the process to complete.
Step 5 Before you reboot the device, remove the USB CD-ROM drive from the USB port so that the device
boots from flash memory.
Step 6 Reboot the device by choosing Option 8: Exit and Reboot.
Recovery CD-ROM Options
The options described in the following sections are available from the software recovery CD-ROM
installer menu.
Option 1: Configure Network
If the .bin image you need to install is located on the network instead of the CD-ROM, then you must
choose this option to configure the network before attempting to install the .bin image.
This option is automatically performed if you install a .sysimg file from the network.
Option 2: Manufacture Flash
This option verifies the flash memory and, if the memory is invalid, automatically reformats it to contain
a Cisco standard layout. If reformatting is required, a new cookie is automatically installed.
This option is automatically performed as part of a .bin or .sysimg installation.
Option 3: Install Flash Cookie
This option generates a hardware-specific platform cookie and installs it in flash memory. This option
only needs to be performed if there has been a change in the hardware components, such as replacing
the motherboard, or moving a flash memory card between systems.
This option is automatically performed during the flash manufacturing process, if needed, as part of a
.bin or .sysimg installation.
Option 4: Install Flash Image from Network and Option 5: Install Flash Image from CD-ROM
These options allow installation of the flash memory .sysimg only, and do not modify disk contents.
They may be used when a new chassis has been provided and populated with the customer’s old disks
that need to be preserved.
These options automatically perform flash verification and hardware cookie installation, if required.
When installing from the network, you are prompted to configure the network if you have not already
done so.
Option 6: Install Flash Image from Disk
This option is reserved for future expansion and is not available.
