HP 2920-48G-POE+ Switch (J9729A) Stack update

Hey all,

Im wodering how to update the firmware on my HP 2920-48G-POE+ Switch (J9729A) Stack.

My 2920 Stack has one Comander, one Standby and one Memeber. MY Comander has the WB.16.01.0004 running.

I guess the other both as well but not sure how to ccheck that, show stack show me only the commander FW.

But what I want to know, can I update all switches in the stack via Webgui? If not what is the way to update the all Switches in the stack? or even do I need  to update all or is it enough to update only the commander.

Hope you can help me.

Thanks

Hi

Probably it is possible to upgrade your stack by GUI, but i always work with CLI so i can tell you how to do it that way :)

If you are using a tftp server for retrieving your firmware, enter following command on the commander switch:

copy tftp flash <ipaddress tftp> <filename> primary

The commander will push this automaticly to the other members of the stack.

When this is complete you will need to boot the whole stack with following command:

boot system

Kind regards

When you put switches in a stack  they need to have the same firmware anyway, else you can not stack them.

Hi,

Show System

Gives you the Software revision, which must be the same on all stack members and it gives you the rom version of each member
