Figure 3-6. Verifying Details about the Switch
You can also use the show hardware command to display the running code version. See the sample output
in the section Downloading a Software Image on page 45.
The
show version command displays more details about the software packages installed, and also the
hardware present on the system. This command provides the details shown by the
show hardware and
show sysinfo commands, along with interface information, the u-boot version number, and the system
image file version. The
show tech-support command is the most lengthy, because it includes the output
from each of these other commands:
show version
show logging
show eventlog
show port all
show memory
show process cpu
show running-config
Because output from the show tech-support command is so lengthy, Dell Force10 recommends that you set
the storage buffer high on your terminal access program, then use the
non-paged option — show
tech-support non-paged — to collect the full report for off-line analysis.
