On NxOS 10.1(X) upgrade of the EPLD Golden regions is sometimes unsuccessful. The device does not display any error when issuing the install command, instead it keeps booting from the Golden region with old EPLD version.
In some cases Nexus 9000 series device running NX-OS 10.1(2) does not upgrade the Golden EPLD region. - Upgrade of the Primary EPLD region: switch# install epld bootflash:n9000-epld.10.1.2.img module 1 - After the reload due to the upgrade of the Primary EPLD region the Switch boots on the Golden region.
