6. Enter your password in the Password field.
7. From the SAN Elements tab, select the HBAs that you want to upgrade and move them to the Selected
HBAs window. You can do this by:
• Clicking an HBA name and then clicking the right arrow.
• Dragging an HBA name from the SAN Elements tab into the Selected HBAs window.
• Control-clicking multiple HBAnames and then clicking the right arrow.
• Control-clicking multiple HBA names and then dragging the HBA names from the SAN Elements tab
into the Selected HBAs window.
• Dragging a fabric name from the SAN Elements tab into the Selected HBAs window to add all of
the HBAs from that fabric.
CAUTION: Simultaneous firmware download to one or more HBAs on the same host from multiple Fabric
Manager clients is not supported and may permanently corrupt the firmware on the HBAs, causing them
to be unusable.
Non-FDMI capable HBAs appear with a grey background.
If Fabric Manager detects that a device is no longer in the Name Server, the device is displayed
with a grey background in the Firmware Download to HBAs window until the device logs into the
Name Server again.
8. Click the Download button to begin the firmware download. Fabric Manager prompts you with a
confirmation dialog box.
9. Click OK to proceed or Cancel to abort.
Fabric Manager provides a report of successful and unsuccessful downloads.
Accessing firmware when changing the FTP server
Fabric Manager does not copy firmware files when you change from the built-in FTP server to an external
FTP server, or change from one external FTP server to another located on the Fabric Manager server.
To move the firmware files to the new FTP server, follow these steps:
1. Manually copy the contents of the firmware repository on the current FTP server to the new server. Be
sure to copy the folder structure exactly as it is on the current FTP server.
2. Stop the current FTP server.
