Preface
The CISCO MDS 9148 SAN switch has been discontinued, but it is still necessary to master the configuration method:
The upgraded model is followed by 9148S or 9100 series, but the configuration methods are basically the same, just master one:
High Performance and Attractive Value
The Cisco MDS 9148S 16G Multilayer Fabric Switch is the next generation of highly reliable Cisco MDS 9100 Series switches. It includes up to 48 auto-sensing line-rate 16 Gbps Fiber Channel ports in a compact, easy-to-deploy and manage 1 rack unit (1RU) form factor. In summary, the Cisco MDS 9148S is a powerful and flexible switch that delivers high performance and comprehensive enterprise-class features at an affordable price.
Compare Models MDS 9100 Series Multilayer Fabric Switches - Cisco
illustrate:
Before implementation, check the number of modules and insert them into the first 12 ports. If there is no license for port expansion, each switch defaults to
12port activated. Each port expansion license can activate 12 ports, and a fully activated switch with 48 ports requires 3 licenses.

使用TFTP软件上传软件包到bootflash
# copy tftp://<server IP address>/<filename in TFTP> bootflash:<image filename>
例如：
copy ftp://192.168.10.111/m9100-s5ek9-mz.6.2.27.bin bootflash:m9100-s5ek9-mz.6.2.27.bin

说明：需要将下载好的zip文件解压放在FTP目录下，共两个文件，copy命令需要执行两次上传。
查看上传好的文件
# dir bootflash
升级前检查
1）升级前检查是否有特性不兼容问题
Switch# show incompatibility-all system bootflash：文件名
2）升级前检查硬件冲突
Switch# show install all impact kickstart bootflash:m9500-sf2ek9-kickstart-mz.5.0.8.bin
system bootflash:m9500-sf2ek9-mz.5.0.8.bin
3）确认业务已经暂停
4）使用show sprom backplane 1确认要升级的交换机序列号
5）使用copy running-config startup-config保存当前配置，以防交换机重启后配置丢失
6）保存当前配置到本地
# copy startup-config tftp://<server IP address>/<startup-config_switchname_date>
7）收集当前日志信息
# show tech-support details
8）执行show version确认当前硬件型号和软件版本
9）执行show module检查交换机组件状态
10）执行show hardware检查交换机是否已经boot up
11）执行show flogi database检查并记录flogi信息和数量
12）执行show system health statistics检查是否都是running
13）执行show vsan检查vsan1是否是active
执行升级命令
# install all system bootflash:<system image name> kickstart bootflash:<kickstart image name>
例如
#install all system bootflash:m9100-s5ek9-mz.6.2.27.bin kickstart bootflash:m9100-s5ek9-kickstart-mz.6.2.27.bin

检查交换机组件状态
# Show module
安装许可
说明：
1）Cisco交换机端口扩容license每个可以激活12port，48port全激活的交换机需要3个license。
2）Cisco交换机激活官方网站提供链接，但需要合作伙伴权限，否则只能拨打400客服电话激活。
3）Cisco交换机激活只需要提供交换机SN和激活码PAK。
4）Cisco交换机许可以lic文件形式通过邮件附件下发给工程师。
步骤：
1.上传激活文件
# copy ftp://192.168.10.11/ 20191008145312690.lic bootflash: 20191008145312690.lic
2.查看激活文件
#dir bootflash
3.安装激活文件
#install license bootflash: 20191008145312690.lic
4. 检查已安装的许可证
#show license usage
#show license brief
收集日志
show tech-support details
show logging [logfile|nvram] 查看交换机日志信息，可以查看日志文件内容，或者nvram里面的日志信息。 3. Practical configuration:
创建 VSAN 100
MDS9148-SAN01(config)# vsan database
MDS9148-SAN01(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 name vsan100
激活端口
MDS9148-SAN01(config-vsan-db)# interface fc1/1,fc1/3,fc1/9,fc1/11
MDS9148-SAN01(config-if)# no shutdown
