Verify firmware update
After you have updated the firmware, verify that all components—BIOS and CPLD, are running the correct version.
● To check the BIOS version, use the dmidecode -s system-version command. The BIOS version also displays during
switch bootup. You can run this command from either ONIE or the DIAG OS.
● To check the CPLD version, use the cpldupgradetool --cpldver command.
Firmware update using USB
You can manually install the OS10 software image using a USB device. Verify that the USB device supports a FAT or EXT2 file
system. For instructions to format a USB device in FAT or EXT2 format, see the Windows documentation accompanying the
USB device.
NOTE:
Using the onie-firmware-x86_64-dellemc_platform_c3538-r0.bin image only updates the ONIE
firmware components, such as BIOS and CPLD. This image does not update the base ONIE version.
1. Plug the USB storage device into the USB storage port on the switch.
2. Power up the switch to automatically boot using the ONIE: Rescue option.
3. Create a USB mount location on the system.
$ mkdir /mnt/media
4. Identify the path to the USB drive.
$ fdisk -l, blkid
5. Mount the USB media plugged into the USB port on the device.
$ mount -t vfat usb-drive-path /mnt/media
6. Install the software from the USB, where /mt/media specifies the path where the USB partition is mounted.
$ onie-self-update /mnt/media/onie-firmware-x86_64-dellemc_platform_c3538-r0.bin
