Switch Memory and Configuration
Using Primary and Secondary Flash Image Options
For example, to reboot the switch from secondary flash when there are no
pending configuration changes in the running-config file:
Figure 6-14. Example of Boot Command with Primary/Secondary Flash Option
In the above example, typing either a
y or n at the second prompt initiates the
reboot operation. Also, if there are no pending configuration changes in the
running-config file, then the reboot commences without the pause to display
Boot from secondary flash.
Booting from the Current Software Version. Reload reboots the switch
from the flash image on which the switch is currently running, and saves to
the startup-config file any configuration changes currently in the running-
config file. Because reload bypasses some subsystem self-tests, the switch
reboots faster than if you use either of the boot command options.
Syntax: reload
For example, if you change the number of VLANs the switch supports, you
must reboot the switch in order to implement the change. Reload automati-
cally saves your configuration changes and reboots the switch from the same
software image you have been using:
