Using SNMP to Upgrade Software

You can use a third-party SNMP management application such as HP OpenView to upgrade software on an HP
device.
NOTE: The syntax shown in this section assumes that you have installed HP OpenView in the "/usr" directory.
Upgrading a Chassis Module's Management Processor
Use this procedure to upgrade a redundant management module.
To upgrade flash code on the Management Processor:
1. Configure a read-write community string on the HP device, if one is not already configured. To configure a
read-write community string, enter the following command from the global CONFIG level of the CLI:
snmp-server community <string> ro | rw
where <string> is the community string and can be up to 32 characters long.
2. On the HP device, enter the following command from the global CONFIG level of the CLI:
no snmp-server pw-check
This command disables password checking for SNMP set requests. If a third-party SNMP management
application does not add a password to the password field when it sends SNMP set requests to an HP device,
by default the HP device rejects the request.
3. From the command prompt in the UNIX shell, enter the following command:
/usr/OV/bin/snmpset -c <rw-community-string> <hp-ip-addr> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.2.1.5.0
ipaddress <tftp-ip-addr> 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.2.1.6.0 octetstringascii <file-name>
1.3.6.1.4.1.1991.1.1.2.1.7.0 integer <command-integer>
where:
<rw-community-string> is a read-write community string configured on the HP device.
<hp-ip-addr> is the HP device's IP address.
<tftp-ip-addr> is the TFTP server's IP address.
<file-name> is the image file name.
<command-integer> is one of the following:
20 – Download the flash code into the device's primary flash area.
22 – Download the flash code into the device's secondary flash area.
