Downloading firmware from an FTP server
For this task, refer to Table 14 for the correct sequence of upgrading firmware
versions to reach your target version. Complete the following steps to download
the firmware from an FTP server.
1.
Log in to the standby CP blade as
admin
. If you need to know the IP address
of the standby blade, run
ipAddrShow
. You should also remain logged in to the
active CP blade in order to monitor it.
2.
Run
firmwareDownload -s
to download the firmware to the standby CP blade.
The
-s
option also disables the autoreboot, so you will have to manually issue a
reboot after the download finishes to initiate firmwarecommit. Enter all
requested information (use default values). The following example shows the
results of running
firmwareDownload -s
for Fabric OS version 7.0.0a.
