Unified image management
Unified images contain all images required to manage the product. Instead of upgrading each type
of image separately, you can use a unified image to upgrade all image types. For example, a unified
image for the BigIron RX Series contains boot, monitor, management, and interface images. When
deployed, a unified image can update all image types on a product simultaneously.
Unified images are not available for all IronWare and Network OS products, but if your product has
a unified image, you can manage that image from the Unified Firmware Images tab of the Firmware
Management dialog box. Management of images can be done using the Firmware Management
module. The Firmware Management module manually imports unified images into the
Management application. This module also allows you to delete unified images from the
Management application. Alternatively, you can click the Update button to download unified
firmware images to the device. The module also deploys unified images that are available in the
Management application to IronWare and Network OS products.
NOTE
Refer to the release notes for your IronWare or Network OS product to determine if unified images
are available for the product.
Viewing the list of unified images
You can view a list of unified images that are known to the Management application from the
Unified Firmware Images tab of the Firmware Management dialog box if you have the Firmware
Management and Configuration Management privilege in your Management application user
account or role.
To view the list of unified images, select the Unified Firmware Images tab from the Firmware
Management dialog box, as shown in
Figure 638 .
NOTE
For Network OS VDX switches, you can select either the logical chassis cluster or the fabric cluster
nodes.
