This command does not load theupgrade images. The PEXs will load the upgrade images when the parent devices are upgraded. Formore information, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.You may upgrade all or some of the software images. If you are upgrading only some of the images,make sure the new images are compatible with the images that are not to be upgraded. The upgradewill fail if a conflict exists.If the PEXs have a storage medium, the system performs the following operations after verifyingvalidity of the source file:1. If you specify an .ipe file, the system automatically decompresses the .bin image files fromthe .ipe file to the same directory as the .ipe file.2. Copies the .bin files to all PEXs of the specified model.3. Displays a prompt for you to delete the following files:{ Source .ipe file (if any).{ Source .bin files if the .bin files are not on a PEX of the specified model.If the PEXs do not have a storage medium, the system performs the following operations afterverifying validity of the source file:4.
