Updating Library and Drive Firmware
Figure 4-56. Firmware Update screen
Use
Service Library
→
Firmware Update
to update the library and drive firmware.
Note:
It is the customer’s responsibility to maintain the library and drive firmware at
the most recent level.
To update library and drive firmware:
1.
Download the latest level of firmware to your host computer by visiting
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/index.html
.
2.
Unload the tape drive, if there is a cartridge in the tape drive, before updating
library and drive firmware.
3.
After downloading the file, click
Browse
to locate the library firmware file with
extension “.fmg” (for example, TS2900_0002.0000.fmg) or the LTO SAS drive
firmware file with extension“.ro” (for example, 85F0L3AH.ro) that you
downloaded from the IBM web site, then click
Update
. The Web User Interface
will indicate that the operation has completed. This means that the firmware file
has been successfully moved from the host computer to the library.
4.
Wait for the library to reboot before resuming normal library operations. It can
take several minutes before the library reboots.
Important:
After the update process starts, you must wait until the library reboots.
Do not attempt to interrupt the process in any way, or the upgrade will
not be successful.
Note:
The IBM TotalStorage Tape Diagnostic Tool (ITDT) is a tool provided by IBM
that offers multiple functional capabilities, including updating drive and
library firmware. It is available for most major platforms and requires no
special device drivers. In addition to the executable file, a README file is
provided that describes the features and capabilities of the ITDT tool, and
gives detailed information on how to use the tool. See “Using the IBM
TotalStorage Diagnostic Tool (ITDT)” on page 7-1.
