Any specific commands to switch to switch code from router code on 8070d?

Any specific commands to switch to switch code from router code on 8070d? I somehow ended up with SPR code on primary and secondary

Stack unit 1:

  NAND Type: Micron NAND 2GiB (x 1)

  Compressed Pri Code size = 29451996, Version:08.0.70dT213 (SPR08070d.bin)

  Compressed Sec Code size = 29451996, Version:08.0.70dT213 (SPR08070d.bin)

  Compressed Boot-Monitor Image size = 786944, Version:10.1.14T225

  Code Flash Free Space = 1319104512

Hey Sal,
There is no cmd to change to switching code when your primary and secondary flash runs routing code.

Compressed Pri Code size = 29451996, Version:08.0.70dT213 (SPR08070d.bin) >> Routing 

  Compressed Sec Code size = 29451996, Version:08.0.70dT213 (SPR08070d.bin) >> Routing

If one of it had a switching code, you can do a 'boot system  flash primary/secondary' to load the image. In this case, you need to load the switching code first and use the above to boot from the partition.



Thanks

Good Day:

Your command on that platform is:
copy tftp system-manifest 10.1.2.3 FI08080e_Manifest.txt primary switch-image



Download and extract 08080e, but do not worry about all the different platforms it supports... You want all 664 MB of it in a folder.  In my case it is c:\TFTP-Root\08080e

Under there are folders like c:\TFTP-Root\08080e\ICX7150, ICX7250, ICX7450, etc.

I personally use Tftpd64 by Ph. Jounin, but there are many great TFTP programs available such as the one from Solar Winds.  In my case, I point the "Current Directory" to c:\TFTP-Root\08080e\ in my TFTP program.

On the switch, set an IP on an interface or VE on the same subnet you are on.  If you do it correctly, you should be able to ping your computer "ping 10.1.2.3" for example.

This command below assumes your computer is 10.1.2.3

Send the Switching "SPS" Firmware:
copy tftp system-manifest 10.1.2.3 FI08080e_Manifest.txt primary switch-image

By historical convention, we send the switching firmware to the primary and routing firmware to the secondary on all Fast-Iron type devices.  Before upgrading one switching firmware version to another, I would backup "copy" the primary => secondary.

Likewise, if I were running routing firmware, I would boot the secondary.  If I were going to upgrade, I would backup secondary => primary

Here is the command to upgrade the Routing firmware (for reference):
copy tftp system-manifest 10.1.2.3 FI08080e_Manifest.txt secondary router-image

***

When done the "show flash" will show:

Stack unit 1:

  NAND Type: Micron NAND 2GiB (x 1)

  Compressed Pri Code size = 25973456, Version:08.0.80eT211 (SPS08080e.bin)

  Compressed Sec Code size = 29451996, Version:08.0.70dT213 (SPR08070d.bin)

  Compressed Boot-Monitor Image size = 786944, Version:10.1.14T225

  Code Flash Free Space = 1319104512

You probably want to verify the checksum:

Switch#verif md5 pri.......................................................Done
Size = 25973456, MD5 03420970e5d4bb0cd48f5bc6485541a8


Also the boot preference:

Switch#sh boot-pr
Boot system preference(Configured):
        Use Default

Boot system preference(Default):
        Boot system flash primary
        Boot system flash secondary
