After you uninstall OS9, follow the steps for an ONIE switch without an OS installed - see Download OS10 image, Installation using ONIE, and Install OS10 license. RMA replacement A replacement switch comes without an OS or license installed. If you receive a replacement switch, you must assign the service tag (STAG) of the replacement switch to the SW entitlement in DDL and install the OS10 software and license. To download OS10 Enterprise Edition and the license, follow the steps for an ONIE switch without an OS installed; see Download OS10 image, Installation using ONIE, and Install OS10 license.
