Downloading firmware using a Microsoft
®
Windows NT operating
system
Perform this procedure to download firmware using Windows NT.
1.
Download the firmware from the Web site at:
www.ibm.com/storage/fcswitch
Remember the directory name where you save the code.
Download the two utilities (rshd.exe and cat.exe) from the Web site. Download
these into the same directory as the firmware.
2.
In a DOS window, enter:
rshd
[to execute the RSH daemon].
3.
Go to “Downloading firmware from a UNIX
®
host” on page 31 and perform steps
2 through 6.
Note:
When downloading to a switch with the
firmwareDownload
command, you
must use UNIX directory (forward slash /) addressing for the directory
location in the command, not PC (backward slash \) directory addressing.
For example, from Windows NT the
firmwareDownload
command would be:
firmwareDownload
“
192.111.2.1
”
,
“
