Rev 1.6.9 If one or more of the switch modules is programmed with a firmware version other than the default version, then MLNX-OS will automatically attempt to burn the default firmware version instead. If a firmware update takes place, then the login process will be delayed for a few minutes. To verify that the firmware update was successful, login to MLNX-OS and run the command "show asic-version" (can be run in any mode). This command lists all of the switch modules along with their firmware versions. Make sure that all the firmware versions are the same and match the default firmware version. If the firmware update failed for one or more modules, then the following warning is displayed. Warning: Some of the subsystems are not updated with default FW . If you detect a firmware version mismatch for one or more modules of the switch system, please contact your assigned Mellanox Technologies field application engineer. 4.2.4.2 Importing Firmware and Changing the Default Firmware To perform an automatic firmware update by MLNX-OS for a different switch firmware version without changing the MLNX-OS version, import the firmware package as described below.

If one or more of the switch modules is programmed with a firmware version other than the

default version, then MLNX-OS will automatically attempt to burn the default firmware version

instead.

To verify that the firmware update was successful, login to MLNX-OS and run the command

“show asic-version” (can be run in any mode). This command lists all of the switch modules

along with their firmware versions. Make sure that all the firmware versions are the same and

match the default firmware version. If the firmware update failed for one or more modules, then

the following warning is displayed.

Warning: Some of the subsystems are not updated with default FW <ver>.

4.2.4.2

Importing Firmware and Changing the Default Firmware

To perform an automatic firmware update by MLNX-OS for a different switch firmware version

without changing the MLNX-OS version, import the firmware package as described below.

MLNX-OS sets it as the new default firmware and performs the firmware update automatically

as described in the previous subsections.

Default Firmware Change on Standalone Systems

Step 1.

Import the firmware image (.tgz file). Run:

Step 2.

Save the configuration. Run:

Step 3.

Reboot the system to enable auto update.

4.3.1

Saving a Configuration File

To save the current configuration to the active configuration file, you can either use the

con-

figuration write

command (requires running in Config mode) or the

write memory

command (requires running in Enable mode).

If a firmware update takes place, then the login process will be delayed for a few min-

utes.

If you detect a firmware version mismatch for one or more modules of the switch sys-

tem, please contact your assigned Mellanox Technologies field application engineer.
