Activates the firmware that was downloaded with firmware download noactivate command.
Activation of the firmware is performed manually by default after a download.
Privileged EXEC mode
By default, the firmware download command downloads the firmware to the system, reboots the system, and commits the firmware automatically. You can specify the noactivate parameter to download the firmware to the system without activating it (the node is not rebooted). The user can run the firmware activate command later to activate the firmware.
To activate firmware on the device:
device# firmware activate
