TheseATCA‐4580firmwareupgradeinstructionscomplywiththePICMGHPM.1specification

fromPICMG.TheIPMIcontrollerandassociatedcircuitryincludeanumberofupgradeable

Preparing rsys-ipmitool

Beforeusingrsys‐ipmitool,verifythattheversionisRadisysbuild2.15ornewerbyrunning

rsys‐ipmitool‐V.Additionally,ifyouhavecopiedthersys‐ipmitoolfileusingaWindows

system,youmustmakethefileanexecutable.EnterthesecommandsattheLinuxprompt:

chmod+xrsys‐ipmitool

./rsys‐ipmitool‐V

Updating from the KCS interface

Whenrsys‐ipmitoolisrunfromthepayloadprocessor(LinuxOS),itusesthelocalKCSpa yload

interface.

1. VerifythatcommunicationispossibletotheIPMC.

./rsys‐ipmitoolmcinfo

2. Ifthepreviouscommandissuccessful,continuetostep3.Otherwise,checkthattheIPMI

driversaresuccessfullyinstalledandretrythecommand.

3. Copythe.imgimagefileintotheOSfilesystem.

4. CheckthefirmwareimageversionsrunningontheCPMandcontainedintheimgfile:

./rsys‐ipmitoolhpmcheckhpm1fw_<version>.img

Thiscommandidentifiestheactive,backup,andfileversions,providingasnapshotof

upgradeablecomponents.

5. UpgradeandactivatetheCPM:

./rsys‐ipmitoolhpmupgradehpm1fw_<version>.imgactivate

Ifthecommandfails,retryitthreetimesbef orecallingSupportforassistance.All

componentsonthetarget(bootloaderandfirmware)thatdonotmatchtheversion

providedintheimgfileareupgraded.

6. Aftertheupgradeiscomplete,upgradeandactivatethefirmware(H8S‐AMCcF/)

componentagain.Thisisnecessarybecausethefirmwarecomponenthasabackupcopy.
