Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Cisco Nexus Software Upgrade - IAG

Table of Contents

Deprecation Notice

This prebuilt has been marked for deprecation on May 17th, 2023 with the scheduled removal date as May 17th, 2024. The replacement for this pre-built is the Cisco NX-OS Upgrade pre-built.

Overview

This pre-built contains the Cisco NXOS Software Upgrade, designed to upgrade firmware on Cisco Nexus 5/7/9k Devices. You will need to provide device hostname from Ansible, firmware filename (should be already located on the device) and mode of operation (Verbose or Zero-Touch). If you are attempting to upgrade a Nexus 5k device, you will also need to provide the kickstart binary file, which should also already be located on the device.

This solution consists of the following:

  • Operations Manager (use case entry point) (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade - IAG)
  • Main Workflow (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade - IAG)
  • Workflow (Device-Connection-Health-Check)
  • Workflow (Command Template Runner)
  • JSON Form (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade)
  • TextFSM Template (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade)
  • Command Template (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade - Pre Checks)
  • Command Template (Cisco NX-OS Upgrade - Post Checks)
  • Transformation (cisco-nxos-upgrade-ID)
  • Transformation (cisco-nxos-upgrade-Variables)
  • Transformation (incrementNumber)

Estimated Run Time: 20-25 minutes

Installation Prerequisites

Users must satisfy the following pre-requisites:

  • Itential Automation Platform (IAP)
    • ^2023.1
  • Itential Automation Gateway (IAG)
    • ^3.227.0+2023.1.15

Requirements

This pre-built requires the following:

  • Cisco NX Device - with the new firmware binary already downloaded and integrity-verified

Features

The main benefits and features of the pre-built are outlined below.

  • NXOS Upgrade Artifact follows Cisco Documentation for ordering and procedure
  • 2 modes of operation: Zero-Touch (for happy path), and Verbose
  • Allow rollback changes in verbose mode
  • Configuration snapshot via IAP configuration manager pre-change and post-change
  • Configuration snapshot is directly to the device pre-change and post-change so backups are easily accessible
  • Sufficient Error Handling to allow for retrying in almost every failure case, or proper mitigation if necessary

Future Enhancements

  • Add better functionality to differentiate between devices that are on IAG versus devices that are on NSO

How to Install

To install the pre-built:

  • Verify you are running a supported version of the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) as listed above in the Requirements section in order to install the pre-built.
  • The pre-built can be installed from within Admin Essentials app. Simply search for the name of your desired pre-built and click the install button (as shown below).

How to Run

  • Navigate to Operations Manager and select the "Cisco NX-OS Upgrade - IAG" automation.
  • Select the manual trigger and fill in the JSON form with the NX device, desired binary upgrade package, and mode of operation.
  • Navigate to active job to monitor progress.

Command Template Results**

If zero-touch is disabled, you will be presented with command template results for pre-checks and post-checks and response from the NXOS upgrade on the device. See the images below for reference.
