-b (Flash Update; Save Flash)
Doc. No. TD-000947 Rev. 1

To save the BIOS or FCode to a file (25xx Fibre Channel adapters only), issue the
following command:
qaucli -pr fc -b <hba instance>|<hba wwpn> SAVE
<BIOS/FCode file name>
Where:
Following is example output of a failed Flash update:
c:\Program Files\QLogic Corporation\QConvergeConsoleCLI>qaucli.exe
-b 0 C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads\mh030215.bin
Using config file: c:\Program Files\QLogic
Corporation\QConvergeConsole CI
Working dir: c:\Program Files\QLogic
Corporation\QConvergeConsoleCLI
FW lockdown is enabled. Flash update is restricted to HBA
instance 0 (QLE2772)!
If System Lockdown Mode is turned on, the flash update fails if the existing
released driver/application is being run with the latest RISC/MPI firmware (that
supports the firmware lockdown feature).
If a new driver/RISC/MPI firmware is being run with the existing application, the
flash update fails with an error message that may be misleading, as the existing
application is not aware of the lockdown feature.
If an existing MPI/RISC firmware, driver, and application are being run, System
Lockdown Mode (on or off) has no effect. The flash update will be successful.
-src
=
Specifies a different template file than the default file.
<template file> = User-defined configuration template file name. See the sample
template file included for complete file syntax and format. If the
<-src> option is omitted, the QConvergeConsole CLI tries to
use the default template file, flashcfg.properties.
--ports Optional. Repeat Flash update to all other ports.
<hba instance> = Adapter number (use the -g command to find)
<hba wwpn> = World wide port name of the adapter
<BIOS/FCode file
name>
=
File name or a path to a file in which to save the BIOS or FCode
a
a
The path and file name must not contain embedded spaces.
NOTE
For the 2770 Series, error 511 may indicate non-authentic firmware. See
fcscli-exitcodes.txt for error code details.
