Chapter 17
Managing Firmware and Configurations
Working with Software Images
Uploading an Image File by Using RCP
You can upload an image from the bridge to an RCP server. You can later download this image to the
same bridge or to another bridge of the same type.
Caution
For the download and upload algorithms to operate properly, do
not
rename image directories.
The upload feature is available only if the HTML pages associated with the Cluster Management Suite
(CMS) have been installed with the existing image.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to upload an image to an RCP server:
The
archive upload-sw
privileged EXEC command builds an image file on the server by uploading these
files in order: info, the IOS image, the HTML files, and info.ver. After these files are uploaded, the
upload algorithm creates the tar file format.
Command
Purpose
Step 1
Verify that the RCP server is properly configured by
referring to the
“Preparing to Download or Upload an Image
File by Using RCP” section on page 17-27
.
Step 2
Log into the bridge through a Telnet session.
Step 3
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
This step is required only if you override the default remote
username (see Steps 4 and 5).
Step 4
ip rcmd remote-username
username
(Optional) Specify the remote username.
Step 5
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
archive upload-sw
rcp:
[[[
//
[
username
@
]
location
]
/
directory
]
/
image-na
me
.tar
]
Upload the currently running bridge image to the RCP
server.
For
//
username
, specify the username; for the RCP copy
request to execute, an account must be defined on the
network server for the remote username. For more
information, see the
“Preparing to Download or Upload
an Image File by Using RCP” section on page 17-27
.
For
@
location
, specify the IP address of the RCP server.
For
/
directory
]
/
image-name
.tar
, specify the directory
(optional) and the name of the software image to be
uploaded. Directory and image names are case sensitive.
The
image-name
.tar
is the name of software image to be
stored on the server.
