Chapter I. Chelsio Unified Wire
4.4.2. Flashing/Erasing Option ROM
Apart from Unified Wire Installer, you can also use Unified Wire Manager's CLI component
(chelsio_uwcli) to flash or erase Option ROM on multiple nodes. This is particularly useful when
you need to flash/erase Option ROM on groups other than the default OptionROM group.
Flashing Option ROM
To flash Option ROM using UM, run the following command:
PS C:\Users\Administrator> chelsio_uwcli.exe chelsio flashrom
adapter=BULKADAPTER path=<path_to_optionrom_image_file> –B <group_name>
E.g.
PS C:\Users\Administrator> chelsio_uwcli.exe chelsio flashrom
adapter=BULKADAPTER path=C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\cuwlbt4.bin –B
OptionROM
Figure 4.4.2 (a) – Flashing option ROM using UM CLI
Flashing option ROM on remote nodes with inbox NDIS drivers will fail. Hence,
Note
please ensure that all nodes are updated to the latest version using the Unified Wire
Installer.
Viewing status
You can list the adapters on local host and verify if Option ROM was successfully flashed
using the following command:
PS C:\Users\Administrator> chelsio_uwcli.exe chelsio listadapters –B
<group_name>
