Obtaining the update (flash) recommendation

Syntax

--flashrec

-fr

Description

The output of the --flashrec command includes the recommended action and the severity of
the recommended action. The update recommendation action can be one of the following:

UPGRADE: The active firmware version of the component is lower than the qualified version
and should be upgraded.

DOWNGRADE: The active firmware version of the component is higher than the qualified
version and should be downgraded.

NONE: The active firmware version of the component is equal to the qualified version. No
action is needed unless you want to force a rewrite of the firmware in the case of the current
firmware being corrupt.

The severity of the recommended action can be one of the following:

MANDATORY: It is critical to update the firmware for optimal performance and system stability.

RECOMMENDED: It is optional to update the firmware from a functionality standpoint. However,
it is highly recommended to update the firmware for system stability.

The output also contains information about the reboot requirement of a component for a successful
firmware update, where necessary.

A verbose report includes additional information such as approximate flash duration, dependent
components, and so on.
