Usage Guidelines

Caution

Caution

Do not use this command unless instructed by Extreme Technical Support.

Use this command to restore the previously active firmware image. You can run this command only if auto-commit mode was disabled during the firmware download. After a firmware download and a reboot (with auto-commit mode disabled), the downloaded firmware becomes active. If you do not want to commit the firmware, use the firmware restore command.

This command reboots the device and reactivates the previous firmware. After reboot, all primary and secondary partitions restore the previous firmware image.

This command causes the device to boot up with its older firmware. Later, the image in the primary partition is automatically committed to the secondary partition.

The firmware download command must have been run with the nocommit parameter for the firmware restore operation to succeed.

Examples

To restore the previous firmware:

device# firmware restore
 
Restore old image to be active ...
Restore both primary and secondary image after reboot.
