configuration file CONF. This file must be kept up-to-date on the flash card. Also, whenever the
/stand/config file is edited for all changes, it must be copied to the flash card.
When the addhardware utility is used to add new hardware to the system, the /stand/ioconfig
file and flash card are automatically updated so that the configuration will be maintained for all system
reboots.
Perform the following steps to replace the CONF file on a flash card.
1. Make a copy of the old
CONF file using the following command:
flifcp /dev/rflash/cxa0d0:CONF /tmp/cont.tmp
2. Enter the following command to remove the old CONF file from the flash card:
flifrm /dev/rflash/cxa0d0:CONF
where /dev/rflash/cxa0d0 is the device name of the flash card (x is the number of
the cardcage where the flash card resides), and CONF is the LIF file on the flash card
specified by the device name.
3. Enter the following command to copy the new /stand/conf to the flash card:
flifcp /stand/conf /dev/rflash/cxa0d0:CONF
where /dev/rflash/cxa0d0 is the device name of the flash card (x is the number of
the cardcage where the flash card resides), and CONF is the LIF file on the flash card
specified by the device name.
2.7.3 Burning PROM Code
All new or replacement boards come with the latest PROM code already installed. Therefore, it is not
necessary to burn the PROM of any new hardware. However, PROM code is occasionally released that
must be burned onto existing boards. The following sections describe how to update PROM code.
2.7.3.1 Burning CPU-Memory PROM Code
Use the following procedure to burn new PROM code into CPU-Memory boards.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to update CPU-Memory board PROM code if the system is
running with only one CPU-Memory boaerd.
1. Change to the /etc/stratus/prom_code directory.
Locate the new PROM code files and determine which file is correct. PROM code file
names use the following convention:
