fastiron icx7150-48p firmware jump from 08.0.61 to current 08095

jj — Tue, 12 Sep 2023 19:13:58 GMT

i do not see release notes locations of upgrade paths. can i jumo from 08061 straight to 08095

what does 08095k and the other letters like h or j mean my upgrade? i see in one document i should use 08095k for one partition. does that have both files for boot and backup partition? these 7150's also have 2 partitions i believe and it looks like i need 2 files from my download currect?

will that work? will i have problems?

thanks

In current code, we use a UFI (single) image. I'm the past, you needed to upgrade both the boot and OS image. I'm your case, your upgrade path will be this:

8061 > 8080f (non UFI) > 8095 (any patch - UFI image)

Be sure to write mem when you boot 8080f to ensure your configuration carries forward properly.

The numbers (ex 8095) are the code stream and the letters (ex. m in 8095m) are the patch level. Each subsequent patch has additional big fixes. I will post an upgrade example in another comment.

Example:

While on 8030-8070 the commands will be:

copy tftp flash <ip address of TFTP server> <boot-code-image> boot
copy tftp flash <ip address of TFTP server> <OS-code-image> <primary/secondary>

Example for 8061 > 8080f (assuming router code and ICX7150)

copy tftp flash 192.168.1.250 spz10114.bin boot
copy tftp flash 192.168.1.250 SPR08080f.bin primary
wr mem
*reload into 8080f*

Once booted to 8080f:

*wait for POE firmware upgrade if applicable - happens automatically and can be seen on console or 'show log'*

wr mem (this is necessary to ensure your configuration is upgraded as syntax can change)
copy tftp flash <ip address of TFTP server> <UFI-code-image> <primary/secondary>

Example for 8080f > 8095m (assuming router code and ICX7150 again)

copy tftp flash 192.168.1.250 SPR08095mufi.bin primary
wr mem
*reload into 8095m*
wr mem
*if needed, POE firmware will upgrade again*
