Upgrading Bios Or Hardware Firmware Components - HP StoreOnce 2700 Installation And Configuration Manual

5. It may take up to 10 minutes for the software update to complete.
Once access returns to the StoreOnce Management interface, check that the process has
completed successfully, as follows:
From the CLI: Use system show packages to check that all packages are now
Installed. You should see this line in the output of system show packages: D2D_Master
<software_revision_info>.rpm installed
From the GUI: Check on the StoreOnce screen, to ensure that the software revision number
has updated to software version D2D_Master <software_revision_info>.
From the GUI: Check the Event log for a confirmation message of the software upgrade.
"Update D2D_Master <software_revision>" completed successfully.

Upgrading BIOS or hardware firmware components

Do not upgrade BIOS or hardware firmware components individually using downloads from the
HP Support website because currently supported firmware component updates are already
embedded within the StoreOnce software. Use either the StoreOnce GUI or the StoreOnce CLI to
implement BIOS and hardware firmware component checks and updates.
Use hardware show firmware <node|storage> to check the versions currently running
on the StoreOnce Backup system. Check the Action column. There may be instances where
replacement hardware may need a firmware downgrade to bring it in line with the supported
firmware version of the installed StoreOnce software on the system being maintained. Use the
force parameter in the following command to enable this.
Use hardware update firmware <node|storage> [force] to implement any updates
that were packaged with the latest StoreOnce software download; there are two parameters
for this command, either the node or the storage. The command will be applied across all
server components or across all storage components.
It is also possible to upgrade BIOS and hardware firmware from the StoreOnce GUI.
Firmware maintenance from the StoreOnce GUI
1. Select the Firmware page to view the firmware versions for hardware components, and to
update firmware versions if required.
The page contains the following tabs:
Server: Contains hardware components for the server.
Storage: Contains hardware components for all storage elements.
2. Click Scan to perform a check on the currently installed firmware versions for all components
associated to the selected node.
This will populate the firmware tabs. This may take several minutes to run.
NOTE:
3. Look for components that have a Recommended Action of either Upgrade or Downgrade. After
you have run Scan or Scan All, components will automatically be selected for upgrade or
downgrade.
The scan will fail if a firmware update is already in progress.
