If you do not have the proper boot code version, the system displays a message similar to Message 7 when

you attempt to select a cache boot image (refer to Select the Cache Boot Image). Refer to Upgrading the

Boot Code in the Release Notes for instructions on upgrading boot code.

Select the Cache Boot Image

Select the FTOS image that you want to cache using the command upgrade system-image, as shown in the

following example. Dell Force10 recommends using the keyword

all with this command to avoid any

mis-matched configurations.
