firmwareCleanInstall firmwareCleanInstall Recovers the switch firmware. Synopsis firmwarecleaninstall firmwarecleaninstall [-p | -protocol protocol] [host,user,path,passwd] firmwarecleaninstall --help Description Use this command to initiate a clean reinstall of the firmware in cases where the loaded firmware does not function correctly, the normal firmware download fails, or to recover from a rolling reboot situation. Notes The firmwarecleaninstall operation should be performed similarly on both standalone platforms and on directors. On a director, it should be invoked on each CP, and operates only on that CP. Firmwarecleaninstall can be run on both active and standby CPs, however it should not be run simultaneously on both CPs. If for any reason, boot flash is corrupted and boot ROM cannot be loaded, you must let it go through RMA. Firmwarecleaninstall mechanism cannot be used to recover from such damage. If local CF is corrupted in a way that the Linux image cannot be loaded, firmwarecleaninstall cannot be used to recover the switch. Since pre-existing configurations are totally wiped out by firmwarecleaninstall, to restore the previous configuration or the OEM configuration you must do a specific configdownload. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details.
