atmf reboot-rolling
This command enables you to reboot the nodes in an AMF working-set, one at a time, as a
rolling sequence in order to minimize downtime. Once a rebooted node has finished
running its configuration and has brought its ports up it re-joins the AMF network and the
next node is rebooted.
By adding the url parameter, you can also upgrade your switches’ software one AMF node
at a time.
The force command enforces a node reboot even if a previous node does not rejoin the
AMF network. In this situation the unsuitable node will time-out and the rolling reboot
process stops. However, with the force parameter applied, the process will ignore the
timeout and move on to reboot the next node in the sequence.
This command can take a significant amount of time to complete.
Syntax atmf reboot-rolling [force] [<url>]
Mode Privileged Exec
Usage You can load the software from a variety of locations. The latest compatible release for a
node will be selected from your selected location - based on the parameters and URL you
have entered.
For example card:/5.4.3/x*-5.4.3-*.rel will select from the folder card:/5.4.3 the latest file
that matches the selection x (wildcard) -5.4.3-(wildcard).rel. Because x* is applied, each
switch type will be detected and its appropriate release file will be installed.
Other allowable entries are:
■ card:*.rel:
Used when loading SW from SD cards.
■ tftp:ip address:
Used when loading SW from a TFTP server.
■ usb:
Used when loading SW from a USB flash drive.
■ flash:
Used when loading SW from flash memory, i.e. from one x900 switch to another.
■ scp
Used when loading SW from a secure copy.
■ http:
Used when loading SW from an HTTP file server site.
