Copying Firmware Files To The /Tftpboot Directory Of An S8300 Server - Avaya G450 Installing And Upgrading

Upgrading the G450 firmware

Copying firmware files to the /tftpboot directory of an S8300 Server

1. Use Telnet, Avaya Site Administration, or another tool to access the S8300 Server
command line.
2. Log in as craft.
3. At the Linux prompt, type cd /var/home/ftp/pub and press <Enter>. The Linux
prompt reappears. The current directory has changed to /var/home/ftp/pub.
4. At the Linux prompt, type mv <firmware_filename> /tftpboot, and press <Enter> to
move the firmware file to the /tftpboot directory. To move multiple firmware files (most
firmware files have an .fdl suffix), use the command mv *.fdl /tftpboot. The Linux
prompt reappears. The firmware file has been moved to the /tftpboot directory. If you copy
the firmware using the cp command, remove the files from the /var/home/ftp/pub directory
after you have copied them.
5. Repeat step 4, if necessary, for each firmware file you want to install.
6. At the Linux prompt, type cd /tftpboot. The Linux prompt reappears. The current
directory has changed to /tftpboot.
7. At the Linux prompt, type ls, and press <Enter>. A list of files in the directory appears.
8. Check the directory to make sure the firmware files you want to install are listed.
