Updating U501 SCSI Adapter Card PROM Code
HP-UX version 11.00.03 Updating PROM Code B-7
Do not proceed until the status of both console controllers is correct. (During
the transition, a console controller is listed as offline; do not proceed until it
is listed as Online Standby.)
6. Update the PROM code on the console controller that is now on standby (that
is, repeat step 2 and step 3 for the other console controller).
Once these commands are complete, both console controllers will be updated
with the same PROM code.
7. Return the boards to the state in which you found them by switching the
online/standby status of the two console controllers (that is, repeat step 4 for
the other console controller).
8. Display the current (updated) PROM code version for each console controller
by repeating step 5.
Updating U501 SCSI Adapter Card PROM
Code
If a Stratus representative instructs you to update PROM code for a U501 SCSI
Adapter Card, use the following procedure to do so. Verify with the representative
that you have selected the correct PROM code file(s) to burn before starting this
procedure.
1. Determine the hardware path of the adapter card(s) to update by entering
ftsmaint ls
Look in the Modelx column for the adapter card model number and the
H/W Path column for the associated hardware path(s). The following sample
command lists all SCSI adapter ports:
# ftsmaint ls | grep SCSI

CAUTION
SCSI adapter cards can have a mix of external devices, or single- or
double-initiated buses attached to them. In this procedure, all devices
except those connected to the duplexed ports will be disrupted by the
PROM update. Contact the CAC, and proceed with caution.
