Upgrade Mobility Controller / ArubaOS from the CLI

It’s not completely obvious that upgrading the partition means upgrading the OS on the controller. Use this if the Web UI gives you an error about running out of space.

To upgrade partition 0 in enable mode:

copy tftp: <IP ADDRESSS> <FILENAME> system: partition 0

Example:

copy tftp: 1.1.1.1 A800_3.4.2.4_23915 system: partition 0
