Remarks
N/A
By default, the automatic rollback timer is
set to 45 minutes.
HP recommends not using the automatic
rollback feature. This feature is
complicated.
N/A
Perform this step if you want to upgrade
PEXs.
Specify the member ID of a subordinate
member for the chassis-number
argument.
The command also upgrades
single-homed PEXs that are attached to
the specified subordinate members.
This command also upgrades
multihomed PEXs.
N/A
Repeat the issu commit command to
upgrade the remaining members one by
one, including the original master.
IMPORTANT:
After executing the command for one
member, you must wait for the member to
restart and join the IRF fabric before you
execute the command for another
member.
If the ISSU state field displays Init, the
ISSU is finished.
