Dynamically Installing Modules

This section describes how to load and unload modules without service outages.

Usage Scenario

If the in-use module does not exist in the system, the dynamic load function can be used to load desired module file to the system.

This configuration process is supported only on the admin-VS.

Pre-configuration Tasks

Before dynamically installing modules, complete the following task:

  • Log in to the device.
  • Upload the module files to the device.

Procedure

  1. Run check module { file-name | startup }

    Integrity verification is performed on the specified module file.

  2. Run install-module file-name [ next-startup ]

    The specified module file is dynamically loaded.

    If the module is not required any more, use the uninstall-module command to unload the module file.

Verifying the Configuration

Run the display module-information [ verbose ] command to check information about the dynamically loaded module.
