FFx2 Controller Firmware Update

Before you can update the firmware to the latest version, you should first check
that there is no host activity from any host in progress.
Go to the browser and stop the Spheras agents (see page 11). Put the firmware
files for the update in their own, separate folder in case of using Mylex
GAM/GSM, stop the Mylex agent.
In case of replace or upgrade of a controller:
The "new kid on the block" will automatically update the firmware revision of the
remaining controller! Works for upgrade and downgrade!
(Solaris,Linux)
Because a reset controller is performed during the flash procedure, Multipath
SMAWmpd set all devices to error. This is the expected behaviour. The flash
procedure performs a reset and asks about 1 minute later whether the controller
is available again. Because the paths are in state error, the flash procedure
does not recognize the online controller.
Solution:
set mpd unit = in transparent mode
Command:
# mpdcontrol -o transparent unit 0
