Manually Upgrading the CSS Software
Caution

If you decided to reboot the CSS with the installed ADI in Step 8, the CSS
11.
reboots automatically. If you made the ADI the primary boot file and archived
the contents of the running-config file to the startup-config file, the CSS
automatically performs a Flash upgrade, if necessary, and then boots the new
image.
To manually reboot the system, enter the following commands:
(config)# boot
(config-boot)# reboot
After you upgrade and reboot the software in a CSS 11506 that contains a
12.
passive SCM, use the passive sync command in boot-config mode (or the
passive sync macro command) immediately after upgrading your CSS
software to synchronize the boot configurations on the redundant SCMs. For
details on configuring a boot configuration record for a passive SCM, see
Chapter 2, Specifying the CSS Boot
If the CSS does not have a startup-config file, it uses the file in the archive
13.
directory. To restore the startup-config file, use the restore filename
startup-config command. For example, to restore the startup-config file in
the archive directory as the startup-config file on the CSS, enter:
# restore startup-config startup-config
If desired, you can manually enter CLI commands to upgrade the CSS. Make sure
you configure a default FTP server, as described in the
section.
To manually upgrade the software version on your CSS:
Log in to the CSS.
1.
Remove an older version of the ADI from the CSS if there are two installed
2.
versions.
Do not remove the ADI currently running on the CSS. Use the version command
to see the currently running software version.
