XOS Upgrade show * and . in upgrade progress

Andrew_Mead — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 23:26:00 GMT

We are upgrading an X450A 48 port switches from XOS 15.3.1.4 to 15.3.5.2

There are three switches in a stack.

During the upgrade the we see a some * instead of the . showing progress.

Does anyone know what the * means?

Normally we see lots of .........

All three switches show the new version on the secondary image.

Is it okay to reboot the stack as we had * in the progress?

Thanks for your help.

Andy

Hello Andrew,

Those * typically show up on non master nodes and are completely normal. You are ok to reboot the switch as long as you see the install in the cli.

Thanks Patrick, rebooted all seems okay.

Booted on the new image on secondary.
