HPE CX 10000 Switch - 10.16 - Upgrade information
-------------------------------------------------------
Start with secondary switch!
1.) non-failsafe updates
if a non-failsafe device update is needed, make sure the system will not have any power interruption during the process!
use command to enable updates:
switch(config)# allow-unsafe-updates 30
2.) Copy the new image into the non-current boot bank on the switch using your preferred method.
3.) boot system secondary [if new image has been copied to boot bank secondary]
-------------
Hint:
Each VSX switch in a pair must run the same version of AOS-CX.
If a primary VSX switch is upgraded to 10.10.xxxx, the secondary VSX switch must be immediately upgraded to that same version.
If the ISL link is disabled and enabled on VSX switches that are running different versions of AOS-CX,
a VSX secondary switch running an older version of AOS-CX may be unable to synch information from the VSX primary,
which can cause the port state to become blocked and lead to traffic loss.
