Upgrading Firmware
From time to time, firmware upgrades are made available. You can download upgrades
from the Dot Hill Software Downloads web page, which is located at
http://www.dothill.com/support/downloads.htm
. Before you download the
new firmware, you must fill out a short questionaire. Each upgrade applies to one or
more particular pieces of firmware, including:
■
Controller firmware
■
Drive firmware
■
SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure (SAF-TE) firmware
For detailed instructions about how to download and install the upgrade, refer to the
SANnet II 200 SCSI Array Release Notes
. Generally speaking, all firmware downloads
follow the same steps:
■
Locating the upgrade on the Dot Hill web site that contains the firmware you want.
■
Downloading the upgrade to a location on your network.
■
Using your array software (SANscape, SANscape CLI, or array firmware, in the
case of controller firmware, to “flash” the firmware to the device it updates).
6.6.1
Controller Firmware Upgrade Features
The following firmware upgrade features apply to the controller firmware:
■
Redundant Controller Rolling Firmware Upgrade
When download is performed on a dual-controller system, firmware is flashed onto
both controllers without interrupting host I/O. When the download process is
complete, the primary controller resets and lets the secondary controller take over
the service temporarily. When the primary controller comes back on-line, the
secondary controller hands over the workload and then resets itself so the new
firmware can take effect. This rolling upgrade is automatically performed by the
controller firmware, and the user's intervention is not necessary.
■
Automatically Synchronized Controller Firmware Versions
A controller that replaces a failed unit in a dual-controller system is often running a
newer release of firmware version. To maintain compatibility, the surviving primary
controller automatically updates the firmware running on the replacement secondary
controller to the firmware version of the primary controller.
Note –
When you upgrade your firmware, the
format
(1M) command still shows the
earlier revision level. To correct this, update the drive label, using the
autoconfigure
option (option 0) of the
format
(1M) command. When you select
label
, the drive is labeled with the updated firmware version.
