7. Enter: put firmware-file flash For example: put T230R01-01.bin flash CAUTION: Do not perform a power cycle or controller restart during a firmware update. If the update is interrupted or there is a power failure, the module might become inoperative. If this occurs, contact technical support. The module might need to be returned to the factory for reprogramming. NOTE: If you attempt to load an incompatible firmware version, the message *** Code Load Fail. Bad format image. *** is displayed and after a few seconds the FTP prompt is redisplayed. The code is not loaded. Firmware update typically takes 10 minutes for a controller having current CPLD firmware, or 20 minutes for a controller with downlevel CPLD firmware. If the controller enclosure has attached enclosures, allow additional time for each expansion module's enclosure management processor (EMP) to be updated. This typically takes 2.5 minutes for each EMP in a Lenovo Storage S3200/S2200 drive enclosure. NOTE: If you are using a Windows FTP client, during firmware update a client-side FTP application issue can cause the FTP session to be aborted. If this issue persists try using the SMC to perform the update, use another client, or use another FTP application. If the Storage Controller cannot be updated, the update operation is cancelled. If the FTP prompt does not return, quit the FTP session and log in again. Verify that you specified the correct firmware file and repeat the update. If this problem persists, contact technical support. When firmware update on the local controller is complete, the message Operation Complete is printed, the FTP session returns to the ftp> prompt, and the FTP session to the local MC is closed. If PFU is enabled, allow an additional 10-20 minutes for the partner controller to be updated. 8. Quit the FTP session. 9. Clear your web browser's cache, then sign in to the SMC. If PFU is running on the controller you sign in to, a dialog box shows PFU progress and prevents you from performing other tasks until PFU is complete. NOTE: After firmware update has completed on both controllers, if the system health is Degraded and the health reason indicates that the firmware version is incorrect, verify that you specified the correct firmware file and repeat the update. If this problem persists, contact technical support. Updating disk firmware You can update disk firmware by loading a firmware file obtained from your reseller. A dual-ported disk can be updated from either controller. NOTE: Disks of the same model in the storage system must have the same firmware revision. You can specify to update all disks or only specific disks. If you specify to update all disks and the system contains more than one type of disk, the update will be attempted on all disks in the system. The update will only succeed for disks whose type matches the file, and will fail for disks of other types. Updating firmware 109

Do not perform a power cycle or controller restart during a firmware update. If the update is
interrupted or there is a power failure, the module might become inoperative. If this occurs, contact technical
support. The module might need to be returned to the factory for reprogramming.
