Updating the Device Manually
To update the device manually, please refer to
www.mellanox.com/page/firmware_table_dell?mtag=oem_firmware_download.
In case that you ran the mlnxofedinstall script with the '--without-fw-update' option or you are using an
OEM card and now you wish to (manually) update firmware on your adapter card(s), you need to
perform the steps below. The following steps are also appropriate in case that you wish to burn newer
firmware that you have downloaded from Mellanox Technologies' Web site (http://www.mellanox.com >
Support > Firmware Download).
1. Get the device's PSID.
mlxfwmanager_pci | grep PSID
PSID: MT_1210110019
2. Download the firmware BIN file from the Mellanox website or the OEM website.
3. Burn the firmware.
mlxfwmanager_pci -i <fw_file.bin>
4. Reboot your machine after the firmware burning is completed.
Updating the Device Firmware Automatically upon System Boot
As of MLNX_OFED v3.1-x.x.x, firmware can be automatically updated upon system boot. The firmware
update package (mlnx-fw-updater) is installed in the "/opt/mellanox/mlnx-fw-updater" folder, and
openibd service script can invoke the firmware update process if requested on boot.
If the firmware is updated, the following message is printed to the system's standard logging file:
fw_updater: Firmware was updated. Please reboot your system
Otherwise, the following message is printed:
fw_updater: Didn't detect
Please note, this feature is disabled by default. To enable the automatic firmware update upon system
boot, set the following parameter to "yes" "RUN_FW_UPDATER_ONBOOT=yes" in the openibd service
configuration file "/etc/infiniband/openib.conf".
You can opt to exclude a list of devices from the automatic firmware update procedure. To do so, edit
the configurations file "/opt/mellanox/mlnx-fw-updater/mlnx-fw-updater.conf" and provide a comma
