NOTE

In the steps that follow, you will copy the firmware image to

this unit, then use HSUTIL to distribute it to the devices you

are upgrading. This unit must be a newly initialized disk with

no label or file structure to ensure that the firmware image

resides in contiguous blocks starting from LBN 0 or another

known LBN. Additionally, write-back caching must be disabled

(see HSZ50 Array Controller HSOF Version 5.1 CLI Reference

Manual). See the HSZ50 Array Controller HSOF Version 5.1

Configuration Manual for instructions on configuring a single-

disk unit.

See the Firmware Release Notes for details and exceptions to

the code load process.

3. Copy the firmware image to the single-disk unit that you configured in

Step 2. The firmware image must begin at a known LBN (usually 0) and

must be contiguous. See the documentation that accompanied your host’s

operating system for instructions on copying firmware images to a disk

drive.

CAUTION

You must quiesce the host load before running HSUTIL or

damage to the storage device can occur.

4. Start HSUTIL with the following command:

HSZ> RUN HSUTIL

HSUTIL displays the following:

*** Available functions are:
