5.12.2 PEM IPMC Firmware Upgrade
NOTE: The upgrade process described here uses a script named upgradepem, which is
supplied on shelf managers starting with build 4.1.0-3.
There is a single IPMC firmware image common to the two PEMs in the AXP1440. The PEM
IPMCs are assigned IPMB addresses 0x66 and 0x68.
The file containing the firmware image is pem1620.img. As upgrades are released, Artesyn will
supply the current version of this file.
Procedure - Upgrade the PEM Firmware
Follow these steps to upgrade the PEM firmware:
1. Copy the
pem1620.img
file to the
/tmp
directory on the active Shelf Manager.
NOTE: The /tmp directory on the shelf manager is mounted to ram; this copy of the file will
be deleted on the next reset of the shelf manager. If you want to save the file to flash,
copy it to the /var/nvdata directories on both shelf managers.
2. Execute the following command to upgrade one PEM:
upgradepem pem1 /tmp/pem1620.img
After a successful upgrade, the upgradepem script displays the current
firmware level reported by the device as shown in
PEM Upgrade Sample
Output on page 101 .
3. Repeat this command to upgrade the other PEM:
upgradepem pem2 /tmp/pem1620.img
