TFTP system upgrades are not supported.
Before upgrading your operating system, back up your current configuration. For
instructions, see “Saving and Restoring Configurations” on page 66.
The system upgrade and system import commands feature a timer that flushes
out an invalid config, or a config that fails to load. If a configuration cannot be
imported, the Oracle Fabric Interconnect starts a five-minute timer window. During
that window, the Oracle Fabric Interconnect periodically retries the configuration.
After 5 minutes, if the config still cannot be imported, the config is flushed from the
system, and authentication is allowed. At this point, you can log in to the Oracle
Fabric Interconnect and attempt the upgrade or import again.
