armdownload
Description
The armdownload command downloads firmware to the array. Firmware
can be downloaded to the array main controllers, battery control circuitry, disk
enclosure Link Control Cards (LCC ), and disks.
Note Always refer to the README file provided with the firmware for
specific download requirements.
Caution Only wrapped file formats should be used when downloading
firmware to any component on the array. The use of wrapped
files eliminates the possibility of downloading the wrong
firmware file. Wrapped files can be identified by the .frm file
extension. If the firmware file has another extension, it may be a
raw firmware file. The potential for downloading the wrong
firmware is increased when using raw files.
