4. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 5. Issue the firmwareShow command to check the current firmware version on connected switches. Upgrade their firmware if necessary before proceeding with upgrading this switch. See "Checking connected switches" on page 176 for details. 6. Enter the firmwareDownload command. 7. Respond to the prompts as follows: Server Name or IP Address User name File name Network protocol Password Enter the name or IP address of the FTP server, or SSH server for SCP, where the firmware file is stored; for example, 192.1.2.3. IP6 and DNS are supported by firmwareDownload in 5.3.0 and later. If DNS is enabled and a server name instead of a server IP address is specified in the command line, firmwareDownload determines whether IP4 or IP6 should be used. Enter the user name of your account on the server; for example, "JaneDoe". v6.0.0 or later: Specify the fully-qualified path name of the firmware directory, for example, /pub/v6.0.0. Absolute path names may be specified using forward slashes (/). Specify the file transfer protocol used to download the firmware from the file server. Valid values are FTP and SCP. The Values are not case-sensitive. If "-p" is not specified, firmwareDownload will determine the protocol automatically by checking the config.security parameter on the switch. Enter the password for the server. This operand can be omitted if firmware is accessible through a local directory, or if no password is required by the FTP or SCP server. This operand is required when accessing an SSH server. 8. At the "Do you want to continue [y/n]" prompt, enter y. 9. After the HA reboot, connect to the switch and log in again as admin. 10. If you want snapshots of the upgrade progress, use a separate session and enter the firmwareDownloaStatus command to monitor the firmware download. 11. After the firmware commit is completed, which takes several minutes, enter the firmwareShow command to display the firmware level of both partitions.

Trying address-->AF_INET IP: 192.168.126.115, flags : 2 System settings check passed. You can run firmwaredownloadstatus to get the status of this command. This command will cause a warm/non-disruptive boot on the switch, but will require that existing telnet or SSH sessions be restarted. Do you want to continue [Y]: y Firmware is being downloaded to the switch. This step may take up to 30 minutes. Downloading firmware to a Director You can download firmware to the HP StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Director and DC Director without disrupting the overall fabric if the two CP blades are installed and fully synchronized. Use the haShow command to verify that the CPs are synchronized prior to beginning the firmware download process. If only one CP blade is inserted or powered on, you can run firmwareDownload -s to upgrade the CP. If the CPs are not in sync, you can run firmwareDownload -s on each of the CPs to upgrade them. These operations will be disruptive. Or if the CPs are not in sync, run the haSyncStart command. If the Fabric OS 6.1.x administrator guide 179
