Upgrade the EFOS software

Summary

Hello,

The EFOS upgrade procedure do not follow the Broadcom recommendations.

Upgrade Brief: "It is recommended to download the 3.12.0.1 STK file to the backup partition and activate it to boot into the 3.12.0.1 version. Image download to active partition is also supported, but if the download fails or corrupts, we may have a situation with no valid image on the switch."

The procedure should be:

• show bootvar
• copy sftp://root@172.19.2.1//tmp/EFOS-3.10.0.3.stk backup
• show bootvar
• boot system backup
• show bootvar
• write memory
• reload

See EFOS3.X Admin guide -> Chapter 3.1.31 Upgrading the Firmware

Regards, Jonathan
