214 RACADM
Output
Displays a message indicating which operation is being performed.
Examples
• racadm fwupdate -g - 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 RAM disk. Since the
-u option is not present, an update does not
occur.
• racadm fwupdate -s
This option reads the current status of the firmware update.
• 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 RAM disk. 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.
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 <filename>
Example:
racadm fwupdate -p -u -d \my\updatefiles\path
racadm fwupdate -p -u -f
\my\updatefiles\path\<
filename >
