To load the image file (corepm.biz) and boot code (boot.bin)
via FTP on a local console, do the following:
1. Copy the corepm.biz and boot.bin files into a directory
accessible via FTP.
2. Log on to the console at the administrator or root level.
3. FTP to the system where the corepm.biz and boot.bin files
reside.
4. Set the FTP session into binary mode.
5. Go into the directory that contains the corepm.biz and
boot.bin files.
Upgrading to a major software release (e.g., from version 2.1
to 3.x) requires both files to be updated. For most other
software upgrades, you may download only the image file,
however, Metrobility recommends keeping both files synchro-
nized to the same version.
6. Type “get corepm.biz” and “get boot.bin”.
Note: Do NOT reset or power-down the system while
upgrading software! The file system may go into an unknown
state causing boot failures.
7. Once the download is complete, quit the FTP session.
8. If you downloaded the boot code, type “set module image
boot <chassis> <module> file://[path/]boot.bin” (e.g., set
module image boot 1 17 file://boot.bin).
Note: Do not to interrupt the process.
