Chapter 8 Upgrade of XSCF Firmware and Maintenance 8-11
Updating XCP From the Network
■ File preparation:
1. Download the XCP files from a public site to an arbitrary folder on a personal
computer or workstation connected to the server.
In the public site, there will be the XCP file (the firmware program (tar.gz)), the MIB
definition file, and a document concerning the XCP. There are three types of firmware
program files (tar.gz) as described below:
■ The firmware program for M3000 servers (the file name begins with IKXCP).
■ The firmware program for M4000/M5000 servers (the file name begins with FFXCP).
■ The firmware program for M8000/M9000 servers (the file name begins with DCXCP).
When you import the firmware (the XCP importing), choose the appropriate firmware
program for your system.
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware is Updated When an
XSCF Unit Is Replaced (There Are
Redundant XSCF Units)
The firmware update is automatically
performed by using the maintenance
guidance for FE.
Confirm the version of the updated XCP.
This function is available when you are using
M8000/M9000 servers.
Note: When a component is replaced in the
state of main line switch off (the cold
replacement), the firmware is not updated
automatically. The operator must match the
number of the versions.
About 5 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
replacement work)
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware Is Updated When the
XSCF Unit Is Replaced (in a
System With a Single XSCF Unit or
Both Replacement in a System With
Redundant XSCF Units)
The firmware is not updated automatically.
The operator must match the number of the
firmware versions.
This function is available when you are using
M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 servers.
• In the system with a XSCF Unit;
about 20 minutes
• In the system with redundant
XSCF Units; about 40 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
replacement work)
Confirming That the XSCF
Firmware Is Updated When the
MBU Is Replaced (in the M3000
server)
The firmware is not updated automatically.
The operator must match the number of
OpenBoot PROM and XSCF firmware
versions.
This function is available when you are using
M3000 servers.
About 20 minutes
(Excludes the time for component
replacement work)
