D.3 Troubleshooting Flash ROM Updates
Many of the problems that occur when updating the Flash ROM can be solved by
completing the following steps:
Table D-1: Flash ROM Troubleshooting
Protocol
Area to Check
NetWare
Ensure the file is in the login directory. Since the MPS cannot actually log into the
file server, it has very limited access to the server directories.
TFTP
Check the file and directory permissions.
Ensure the loadhost name and address are specified correctly and that their case
matches that of the filenames on the host system.
Ensure the file and pathnames are enclosed in quotes to preserve case.
Ensure that TFTP is enabled on the host; several major UNIX vendors ship their
systems with TFTP disabled by default.
MOP
The Ethernet circuit must have the service characteristic enabled.
Ensure that the MOM$LOAD search path includes the directory containing the
MPS.SYS file.
