Update Firmware stacked N1548P
I want to update a stack of two Dell N1548P switches from 6.3.3.10 to 6.6.3.3. I read these lines in the update-manual, it relates to the hiveagent:
In a stacked switches, delete “ah_ha.conf_s”, “hiveagent_pr_s”, “ah_ha.conf”, “hiveagent_pr” and “hiveagent” files under “user-apps” directory of all the member switches from binshell mode using “devshell binsh” command.
I've never used devshell so far, I had to connect via CLI to each stack-member and issue this command:
console#devshell binsh delete user-apps/ah_ha.conf_s
console#devshell binsh delete user-apps/hiveagent_pr_s
console#devshell binsh delete user-apps/ah_ha.conf
console#devshell binsh delete user-apps/hiveagent_pr
console#devshell binsh delete user-apps/hiveagent
Am I right?

Hi Boskabouter,
Yes, you are correct you need to run those commands so that the hiveagent gets updated properly.

If you are not using a HiveManager (now CloudIQ) to manage your switches you may disable the HiveAgent on the switch:
OS6(config)# eula-consent hiveagent reject
You do not need to run any shell commands for the OS upgrade.
Background is once a switch is connecting to a HiveManager instance the latter will deploy latest HiveAgent automatically.
This process is not working with certain older versions and needs the manual steps outlined in the release notes.
