directory. If you specify a subdirectory that does not exist, the ERX
system creates the directory.

Note: Be sure to transfer the software release file and all the files it lists.

Task 9: Install Files on the System Space

Installing the software release file to the system space installs all files listed
in the software release file. To install the software release file from the
incoming directory in the ERX user space to the ERX system space, use
the

copy command.

Note: The destination file must have a .rel extension.

For example:

host1#copy /incoming/releases/x-y-z.rel x-y-z.rel

The software release will be copied from the network host to the
ERX system. This process can take several minutes.

Task 10: Save the Current Configuration

To save the current configuration, use the

copy running-configuration

command:

host1#copy running-configuration filename.cnf

Task 11: Reboot the System

To reboot the system using the newly installed software:

1

Access Global Configuration mode.

host1#configure

Configuring from terminal or file [terminal]?

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

host1(config)#

2

Run the

boot system command, specifying the .rel filename of the

software release.

For example:

host1(config)#boot system x-y-z.rel

The following message appears when you execute this command:

WARNING: It is recommended that you copy the current

running-configuration to a file prior to reloading a

different release of software.
