CPLD update issue

Dear all,

 

I have a stack with 2x N2048 + 2x N2048P. Yesterday, I have the firmware has been upgraded from 6.1.1.7 to 6.5.1.1 and the boot code has been updated from U-Boot 2012.10-00076-g49fadd9 (2014) to U-Boot 2012.10-00079-g20827d2 (2017).

And I tried to update CPLD from v13 to v20 on the Master, logs here : https://pastebin.com/Ctnp5RxJ

My master became Unit2, after a reload of the stack it came back to normal and the master went back to Unit1. And after the reload of the stack, the CPLD of my master (Unit1) is still in v13 :

CPLD Version...................... 13
Image File........................ N2000Stdv6.5.1.1

 

Question :

- Why did my master go from Unit1 to Unit2?

- Why my Master still in CPLD 13 when the upgrade operation seems to have gone well?

- How to correct this?

 

Thanks for your appreciated help.

Hello,


 yes I know. I have read this documentation.My problem is not whether I should update CPLD or not...

Please can you re-read my questions in my first post ?


Thanks

Hi Daniel

Thank you for the very useful information, it helped me to review what was happening with my switch stack, however I have one switch with cpld v20 and one with cpld 15 - how do I get the second switch in the stack to go to v20?  Hmm that was weird … I just checked again and switch 2 has now gone to CPLD v20 - thought transference perhaps.

 

Thanks

E.
