First update the software to 3.2.0300-100 (for InfiniBand platforms) or 3.2.0506 (for Ethernet platforms), then update to the desired software version. To upgrade MLNX-OS software on your system, perform the following steps: Step 1. Change to Config mode. switch > enable switch # configure terminal switch (config) # Step 2. Obtain the previously available image (.img file). You must delete this image in the next step to make room for fetching the new image. switch (config) # show images Installed images: Mellanox Technologies 38 Mellanox Technologies Confidential
