4. Copy the firmware file to the /var/ftp/pub directory. For example:
# cp /opt/hp/mxso/firmware/S-2_3_2_13.img /var/ftp/pub
5. ssh to the OA using the exds user:
# ssh 172.16.1.1 —l exds
6. Connect to the switch module in the bay being upgraded (bay 3 or 4):
x123s-ExDS-OA1> connect interconnect <bay number>
7. Log in with the same credentials as the OA.
8. Flash the new firmware. For example:
=> sw local flash file=ftp://172.16.3.1/pub/S-2_3_2_13.img
9. While still logged in to the interconnect, run the reset command.
=> sw local reset hard
continue (y/n)? y
10. While the switch is rebooting, verify that the VSM version number has been updated.
11. Disconnect from the interconnect by pressing Ctrl-Shift-_ (Control, Shift, and underscore keys)
and then enter D for "D)isconnect".
12. Repeat the process if you are upgrading the other bay.
13. Exit from the OA using exit.
14. At the Management Server prompt, run the exds_stdiag command to validate that all switches
are the same and at the correct minimum revision. The output contains text such as:
switch HP.3G.SAS.BL.SWH in 4A fw 2.76
switch HP.3G.SAS.BL.SWH in 3A fw 2.76
switch HP.3G.SAS.BL.SWH in 4B fw 2.76
switch HP.3G.SAS.BL.SWH in 3B fw 2.76
If the firmware version is incorrect, the exds_stdiag command prints a * character at the
beginning of the line.

# service vsftpd stop
