 Troubleshooting: Upgrading firmware using the serial port

 

Problem 

Possible cause 

Possible solution 

After forcing the GbE2 Interconnect 
Switch into the download mode, the 
console screen displays a message to 
change the baud rate for your terminal 
emulation session for XModem transfer 
and does not display 

CCCC….

 

Your terminal emulation session baud 
rate does not match the GbE2 
Interconnect Switch serial console baud 
rate in the download mode. 

Change the baud rate of your terminal 
emulation session to match the GbE2 
Interconnect Switch serial console baud 
rate in the download mode. 

IMPORTANT:  

The baud rate for the 

GbE2 Interconnect Switch serial console 
in the download mode and runtime 
mode are two separate settings. 

After starting to download the firmware 
file, the download fails. 

The firmware file is not the correct one 
or is corrupt. 

Obtain the latest firmware file that is 
specified for this GbE2 Interconnect 
Switch. 

The GbE2 Interconnect Switch 
configuration is corrupt. 

An error was made when saving the 
GbE2 Interconnect Switch configuration. 

Reboot the GbE2 Interconnect Switch 
and reload the factory settings. This 
action clears all settings and restores 
them to the initial values that were 
present when the GbE2 Interconnect 
Switch was purchased. Refer to the 

HP 

ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect 
Switch Command Reference Guide 

for 

more information. 

After reloading the factory settings, 
reconfigure the GbE2 Interconnect 
Switch settings.
