Single CP Option In the Core Switch 2/64 and the SAN Switch 2/32, single CP mode enables a user to upgrade a single CP and to select full-install, auto-reboot, and auto-commit. Use the -s option to enable Single CP Mode. Auto-Reboot Option After downloading firmware the system must be rebooted. If this option is not specified, the user must issue the reboot command manually in order to activate the downloaded image. If Auto-reboot mode is enabled, the switch reboots automatically after the firmwaredownload command has been run. Use the -b option to enable auto-reboot mode. Auto-Commit Option By default, after running firmwaredownload and after reboot, the switch will perform a firmwarecommit command automatically.

Use the -n option to chose to commit the firmware manually. Incremental Install Option Fabric OS v4.1 is installed as a set of packages, each package containing a part of the software.
