Updating IOM Software Using CMC Web Interface
You can update the IOM software by selecting the required software image from a specied location. You can also rollback to an earlier
software version.
NOTE: This feature is supported on PowerEdge M I/O Aggregator IOM only. Other IOMs including MXL 10/40GbE are not
supported.
To update the IOM Infrastructure device software, in the CMC Web interface:
1 Go to Chassis Overview > I/O Module Overview > Update.
The IOM Firmware Update page is displayed.
Alternatively, go to any of the following:
• Chassis Overview > Update
• Chassis Overview > Chassis Controller > Update
• Chassis Overview > iKVM > Update
The Firmware Update page is displayed, which provides a link to access the IOM Firmware Update page.
2 In the IOM Firmware Update page, in the IOM Firmware section, select the check box in the Update column for the IOM you want to
update the software and click Apply Firmware Update.
Alternatively, to rollback to the earlier versions of the software, select the check box in the Rollback column.
3 Select the software image for the software update, using the Browse option. The name of Software image gets displayed in the IOM
Software Location eld.
The Update Status section provides software update or rollback status information. A status indicator displays on the page while the
image le uploads. File transfer time varies based on connection speed. When the internal update process begins, the page
automatically refreshes and the Firmware update timer is displayed.
NOTE
: Do not click the Refresh icon or navigate to another page during the le transfer.
NOTE: The le transfer timer is not displayed when updating IOMINF
rmware.
When the update or rollback is complete, there is a brief loss of connectivity to the IOM device since it resets and the new rmware is
displayed on the IOM Firmware and Software page.
NOTE
: The FTOS or IOM software version is displayed in the format X-Y(A-B). For example, 8-3(1-4). If the Rollback
Version of the FTOS image is an old image which uses the old version string format 8-3-1-4, then the Current Version is
displayed as 8-3(1-4).
IOA GUI
You can launch the IOA GUI from CMC to manage the IOA conguration. To launch the IOA GUI from CMC, the IOM must be set to IOA
and you must have the Fabric A, B, or C Administrator privilege.
You can launch the IOA GUI from the Chassis Overview, I/O Module Overview, and I/O Module Status pages.
