racadm fwupdate -u
The
-u
option starts the update process. This command assumes that a
valid firmware update file has been previously loaded using the
-g
or
-p
option. The update file checksum is verified for correctness before
proceeding.
racadm fwupdate -g -u -a 143.166.154.143 -f firmimg.dm1
In this example, the
-g
option tells the firmware to download the firmware
update file from a location (specified by the
-f
option) on the TFTP server
at a specific IP address (specified by the
-a
option). The update file is then
loaded into RAMdisk. The
-u
option tells the firmware to proceed with the
update after the firmware is loaded.
Updating the Firmware
If you use the -f option, specify the firmimg.dm1 file. See the -p option
description in Table A-10 for more information.
If you are updating your firmware locally, use one of the following commands
to update your firmware:
racadm fwupdate -p -u -d <directory>
racadm fwupdate -p -u -f firmimg.dm1
Example:
racadm fwupdate -p -u -d \my\updatefiles\path
racadm fwupdate -p -u -f
\my\updatefiles\path\<filename>
If you are updating your firmware remotely, use the following command to
update your firmware:
racadm -r <RAC_IP> -u <user> -p <password> fwupdate -
g -u -a <TFTP_IP> -d <TFTP_dir_path>
NOTE: The -p option does not support remote firmware updates.
