rfw‐updatetoautomaticallyupdatetheothermoduledevices.Refertotheproductrelease

notestoidentifyanyIPMCFPGAupdates.

Followthesestepstoperformtheupdate:

1. DeterminewhichmodulesrequireIPMCFPGAupdatesbycomparingtheirinstalledIPMC

FPGAversionwiththelatestPromentumsoftwarerelease.SeeDeterminewhichmodules

requireanIPMCFPGAupdateonpage 17fordetails.

2. Runrsys‐updateoneachmodulethatrequiresanIPMCFPGAupdate,specifyingthepath

tothefirmwareupdatebundle.Thefollowingcommandupdatesthemodule’sIPMCFPGA

andassociatedIPMIfirmware:

rsys‐update‐‐path<xxx‐firmware.tgz>‐‐ipmi‐firmware:update

Note:Seersys‐updatecommandoptionsonpage 32fordetailsaboutthersys‐update

commandoptionsusedinthisdocument.

ToupdatetheIPMCFPGAfortheATCA‐5010orATCA‐5014SPM,runthefollowing

commandfromtheATCA‐2210andspecifytheIPMBtargetaddress(0xE4fortheSPMin

slot7,or0xE6fortheSPMinslot8):

rsys‐update‐‐path<xxx‐firmware.tgz>‐‐ipmi‐firmware:update‐‐ipmb‐target

<IPMBtargetaddress>

3. Activatetheupdatedcomponent:

rsys‐update‐‐path<xxx‐firmware.tgz>‐‐ipmi‐firmware:activate

Similarly,activatetheupdatedcomponentfortheATCA‐5010orATCA‐5014SPM:

rsys‐update‐‐path<xxx‐firmware.tgz>‐‐ipmi‐firmware:activate‐‐ipmb‐target

<IPMBtargetaddress>

4. Removeandreinsertthemodule.

Note:Ifthemodulepower‐cyclesthenitdoesnotneedtoberemoved.Somemodules

withrelease3.5.0orgreaterPromentumsoftwarewillpowercycleautomatically,so

removalandreinsertionisnotrequired.

SeeAppendixC,PowercyclingafterIPMCFPGAupgrades,onpage 88fordetailsaboutthe

modulesthatmayrequireamanualpowercycle.

SeeChapter3,Usingrsys‐updateforsingleproductupdates,onpage 31foradditional
