NOTE:
You can load and activate version 6.7 firmware on an operating switch
without disrupting data traffic or having to re-initialize attached devices.
If you attempt to perform a non-disruptive activation without satisfying
the following conditions, the activation will fail. If the non-disruptive
activation fails, you will usually be prompted to try again later.
Otherwise, the switch will perform a disruptive activation.
The current firmware version permits the installation and
non-disruptive activation of 6.7 firmware. Refer to the
6.7 Firmware
Release Notes
for previous compatible firmware versions.
No changes are being made to switches in the fabric including
powering up, powering down, disconnecting or connecting ISLs,
changing switch configurations, or installing firmware.
No port in the fabric is in the diagnostic state.
No Zoning Edit sessions are open in the fabric.
No changes are being made to attached devices including
powering up, powering down, disconnecting, connecting, and HBA
configuration changes.
Install firmware on one switch at a time in the fabric. If you are
installing firmware on one switch, wait 120 seconds after the
activation is complete before installing firmware on a second
switch.
For a fabric in which all switches are running 6.7 firmware, no more
than two Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 sessions can be open.
For a fabric in which one or more switches are running firmware
prior to version 6.7, only one Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 session
can be open.
Ports that are stable when the non-disruptive activation begins, then
change states, will be reset. When the non-disruptive activation is
complete, Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 sessions reconnect
automatically. However, Telnet sessions must be restarted manually.
