Function?
This command specifically requests firmware updates for the CPU and
1
CIXCD modules. Note the syntax of a device list, separated by
spaces.
LFU requires you to confirm each update, if you named the modules
2
specifically.
Status message reports update and verification progress.
3
LFU prompts for each device in turn.
4
This is a second example. When you specify the * wildcard, LFU tries
5
to update all modules.
LFU prints the configuration table and prompts before all devices are
6
updated.
This message appears because, in this example, the firmware on the
7
DEMNA module is not at a lower revision level than the firmware im-
age on the CD-ROM. You can still request LFU to perform the update.
If the module version is equal to the update firmware, you may have
previously tried the update (making the module and CD-ROM firm-
ware images the same revision). However, if the verification process
had reported an error, you can repeat the update. Also, this feature
allows you to update a module with an older revision of firmware.
This is another example, using a wildcard to request LFU to update all
8
DEMNA adapters in the system. When you use a device mnemonic fol-
lowed by a wildcard *, LFU prompts once for all devices of the same
type. A wildcard alone updates all devices.
CAUTION: Never abort an update operation; you will corrupt the firm-
ware on the module.

DO NOT ABORT!
