OS10 upgrade
To upgrade OS10, first download and unpack the new OS10 binary image as described in Download OS10 image and license ->
Download an image for OS10 upgrade. Copy the binary image file to a local server. Then follow the steps in this section.
NOTE:
The image install command installs the downloaded image to the standby partition. If the active partition
contains any modified text files or installed custom packages, they would not be available in the standby partition. Back up
the modified files and re-install the packages after downloading the image.
NOTE: During the image upgrade process in a VLT setup, when the VLT peers are running different software versions, no
configuration changes should be done on a VLT peer. Ensure that both nodes are upgraded to the same version before you
make any configuration change.
1. (Optional) Back up the current running configuration to the startup configuration in EXEC mode.
