To update expansion-module firmware
1.
Obtain the appropriate firmware file and download it to your computer or network.
2.
If you want to update all expansion modules, continue with the next step; otherwise, in SMU, determine
the address of each expansion module to update:
a. In the Configuration View panel, select a drive enclosure.
b. In the enclosure properties table, note each EMP's bus ID and target ID values. For example, 0 and
63, and 1 and 63. Bus 0 is the bus that is native to a given controller, while bus 1 is an alternate
path through the partner controller. It is recommended to perform update tasks consistently through
one controller to avoid confusion.
In SMU, prepare to use FTP:
3.
a. Determine the network-port IP addresses of the system's controllers.
b. Verify that the system's FTP service is enabled.
c. Verify that the user you will log in as has permission to use the FTP interface.
4.
If the system has a single controller or includes any MSA70 drive enclosures, stop I/O to vdisks before
starting the firmware update.
5.
Open a Command Prompt (Windows) or a terminal window (UNIX) and navigate to the directory
containing the firmware file to load.
6.
Enter:
ftp controller-network-address
For example:
ftp 10.1.0.9
7.
Log in as an FTP user.
8.
Either:
• To update all expansion modules, enter:
put firmware-file encl
• To update specific expansion modules, enter:
put firmware-file encl:EMP-bus-ID:EMP-target-ID
For example:
put S110R01.bin encl:1:63
CAUTION:
update is interrupted or there is a power failure, the module might become inoperative. If this
occurs, contact technical support. The module might need to be returned to the factory for
reprogramming.
It typically takes 2.5 minutes to update each EMP in a D2700 drive enclosure, 6.5 minutes to update
each EMP in an MSA70 drive enclosure, 2.5 minutes to update each EMP in a P2000 drive enclosure,
or 1.5 minutes to update each EMP in an MSA2000 drive enclosure. Wait for a message that the code
load has completed.
NOTE:
second time. If it fails again, contact technical support.
9.
If you are updating specific expansion modules, repeat
that needs to be updated.
10.
If you updated firmware in an MSA70 drive enclosure, power cycle that enclosure to complete the
update process.
1 1.
Quit the FTP session.
12.
Verify that each updated expansion module has the correct firmware version.
140 Using FTP to download logs and update firmware
Do not perform a power cycle or controller restart during the firmware update. If the
If the update fails, verify that you specified the correct firmware file and try the update a
