Ready: Please read the rest of this page once before typing
the commands.
Update FPGA1 by programming EPCS1:
epcs –e1 EPCS_1_ver#.bin
Update FPGA2 by programming EPCS2: (if necessary)
epcs –e2 EPCS_2_ver#.bin
NOTE:
Both EPCS PROMS can be programmed concurrently
using two different terminal sessions (logins). If you get
errors during programming then
DO NOT TURN OFF THE
UNIT,
just repeat the epcs commands again.
The server board should now configure itself on power-up.
Two choices to reset the Unit:
(1) Reset switch in the back of the unit.
(2) Use Telnet and type “epcs –c” this will automatically reboot the Unit without a need for resetting with power switch.
NOTE:
The boot-up process for the unit is approximately 30 seconds.
Figure A-2
Telnet to the Unit:
There are two ways to telnet to the unit:
(1) Use Command line and type in “
telnet IP address
” for
example “telnet 172.16.70.1”
(2) Use the Terminal program such as Putty to telnet.
Use a terminal program such as Putty to telnet into the server
board (can use Linux, DOS prompt, Putty, etc)
You can save your configurations so it’s very quick and easy to
telnet into the board again.
Step 2: Update PROM1 and/or PROM2:
Now you can use the field update utility (epcs) to program the EPCS PROMs. This is a custom utility that resides in the Unit.
Warning:
Care should be taken at this time, if misspelled characters or letters are typed by accident, or you have missed to
type the bin command in Step 1, this could cause the Unit Flash memory to be corrupted. The Unit will try to reload the OS
using the corrupted file ten (10) times before it displays the following screen (
). You can recover from this situation
by repeating the procedure all over again from Step 1 above.
Figure A-3
After you telnet into the server board you must login into the
unit with the following credentials:
Username =
Admin
(case-sensitive)
Password =
pass
(case-sensitive)
Then cd to the /home/ftp directory where the EPCS_x.bin
files have been placed.
cd home/ftp
ls
