Hi,

There is smt call combined image so you only have to upload one big file and the system will extract it self. But since you're running on v3.8, then if you want to do it that way, you might want to do incremental upgrade. I guess

v3.8 -> v4.1 -> v5.0 -> v5.1

And reload-check is uber important :D I llmost bricked one XMR unit by missing one PBIF image during upgrade !

Hi Patrick,

What the guys tell you is true, the upgrade documentation is overwhelming. But basicly you need to update (just check what you have currently with show version) at least for a XMR:

LP=linecard

* Ironware (MP/LP)
* MP - boot
* MP - monitor
* MP - mbridge
* LP - boot
* LP - monitor
* LP - FPGA (dunno if you can already use the FPGA bundle, else you have to know which modules like PBIF or XPP)

* do a reload-check until everything is fine :)

Once done it's not that hard :-)

Folks,

I can handle Cisco iOS upgrade. But now I am faced with upgrading iOS on a Foundry MLX-8 from 3.8 to 5.1. I would appreciate if someone can give me a few general steps on how to go about this. Thanks in advance.

-Pat
