update bootcode
This command updates the bootcode (boot loader) on the switch. The bootcode is read from

Stacks. Error will be returned, if this parameter is provided, on Standalone systems. For
Stacking, the <unit> parameter identifies the node on which this command must be
executed. When this parameter is not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a
Stack.
