Updating XCP From the Network
■
File preparation:
1. Download the XCP files from a public site to an arbitrary folder on a personal
computer or workstation connected to the server.
In the public site, there will be the XCP file (the firmware program (
tar.gz
)), the
MIB definition file, and a document concerning the XCP. There are three types of
firmware program files (
tar.gz
) as described below:
■
The firmware program for M3000 servers (the file name begins with
IKXCP
).
■
The firmware program for M4000/M5000 servers (the file name begins with
FFXCP).
■
The firmware program for M8000/M9000 servers (the file name begins with
DCXCP
).
When you import the firmware (the XCP importing), choose the appropriate
firmware program for your system.
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware is Updated When an
XSCF Unit Is Replaced (There
Are Redundant XSCF Units)
The firmware update is automatically
performed by using the maintenance
guidance for FE.
Confirm the version of the updated XCP.
This function is available when you are
using M8000/M9000 servers.
Note:
When a component is replaced in
the state of main line switch off (the cold
replacement), the firmware is not
updated automatically. The operator
must match the number of the versions.
About 5 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
replacement work)
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware Is Updated When the
XSCF Unit Is Replaced (in a
System With a Single XSCF Unit
or Both Replacement in a System
With Redundant XSCF Units)
The firmware is not updated
automatically. The operator must match
the number of the firmware versions.
This function is available when you are
using M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000
servers.
• In the system with a XSCF
Unit; about 20 minutes
• In the system with redundant
XSCF Units; about 40 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
replacement work)
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware Is Updated When the
MBU Is Replaced (in the M3000
server)
The firmware is not updated
automatically. The operator must match
the number of OpenBoot PROM and
XSCF firmware versions.
This function is available when you are
using M3000 servers.
About 20 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
