Downgrading ExtremeWare
These instructions assume that you followed the upgrade instructions correctly and that the desired
previous configuration has been preserved in the secondary configuration space.
1 If the secondary configuration was saved while using a previous image, configure the switch to use
the secondary configuration using the
use configuration secondary command.
2 If there is no stored configuration saved for that version of ExtremeWare, you must either
reconfigure, or unconfigure, the configuration file chosen (using the
unconfig switch all
command) or download the correct configuration file to the switch while running the desired image.
3 Use the image in the secondary image space with the
use image secondary command.
4 Verify that the above procedures were completed successfully with the
show switch command.
5 Reboot the switch.
6 If you do not have the appropriate configuration downloaded, reconfigure the switch or download
the appropriate configuration.
NOTE
When downgrading to a previous version of ExtremeWare, you must ensure that the switch configuration
matches that version of ExtremeWare or below. Pointing the configuration to a new version of
ExtremeWare and using a previous version of ExtremeWare is not supported.
Upgrading ExtremeWare on Summit Series Switches
Using EPICenter 5.0
If you have multiple switches you plan to upgrade to ExtremeWare 7.4, you can use Extreme's
EPICenter Management Suite 5.0 software to do a bulk upgrade of these devices. EPICenter's Firmware
Manager enables you to do a bulk upgrade of devices of the same type, which greatly speeds and
simplifies the upgrade process, and avoids the need to upgrade your switches one by one.
