5.1.7 Non-Automatic Firmware Activation in Windows
1. Ensure Windows MPIO can see all paths to the drives.
Note: This should be completed before beginning the firmware upgrade procedure.
a. Execute the following command:
C:\mpclaim –v C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\mpclaim_output.txt
b. Verify that there are two paths to each drive by executing the following command:
C:\more C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\mpclaim_output.txt
2. Upgrade the enclosure firmware using sg_ses_microcode by executing the following
command:
sg_ses_microcode SCSIX:X,X,X -m 0xe -N -b 4096 -I <filename> -vv
Attention: If the OOBM is not being used, query Page Eh by executing the following
command
sg_ses <device> -p0xe
3. Press Enter.
The firmware begins loading onto the IOMs. The upgrade can take up to 20 minutes to
complete.
Important: Due to the firmware image being a .tar.gz file, the enclosure has to
unpack and load the firmware onto the respective ICs which may take up to 15
minutes. Once the sg_ses_microcode command is issued wait 20 minutes to ensure
the enclosure has time to perform this process. To check the status of this process,
use the Redfish out-of-band management to make a GET request to the following
target:
curl -G
json" https://<ip address>/redfish/v1/UpdateService/Actions/
UpdateService.SimpleUpdate/Status
Note: Execute the command until you see the following result:
{"ErrorCode":0,"StatusCode":2,"Description":"FW update completed.
Waiting for activation.","EstimatedRemainingMinutes":0}
-k -u admin:admin -H "Content-type: application/
