Note: If you copy the new ProCurve software image to all interface modules using the all keyword, the management
module makes a copy of the image (called lp-primary-0 or lp-secondary-0) and stores it in its code flash. If you copy
the new ProCurve software image to a specified chassis slot, the management module does not make a copy of the
image.
3. Verify that the new ProCurve software image has been successfully copied by entering the following command
at any level of the CLI:
show flash
Check for the ProCurve software image ("Application Image") and the date and time at which the image was built.
E. Upgrading an FPGA for a Gigabit Ethernet Module
The Gigabit Ethernet modules contain the following upgradable field-programmable gate array (FPGA) images:
•
PBIF
•
XTM
•
XPP
•
XBRIDGE (60-port module only)
When you upgrade the ProCurve 9408sl software to release 02.1.00, it is important to upgrade all FPGA images to
version 02.1.00 at the same time.
Determining the FPGA Image Versions
Normally, the show flash output identifies the currently-installed images, and the show version output identifies
the currently-running images. However, the FPGA versions that are currently installed and currently running on an
interface module are not correctly displayed until the interface module is power-cycled! The power-cycle of the
interface modules is accomplished by one of these procedures:
•
reboot the 9408sl using the boot system command
•
power-cycle each interface module using the lp power-off <slot> and lp power-on <slot> commands
•
physically power-cycle the 9408sl routing switch
If you are not sure if the interface modules were power-cycled since installing FPGA images, you may want to perform
one of the listed procedures now. After that, you can use the show flash and show version commands to determine
the FPGA versions currently installed and currently running on the interface modules.
Note: Not all FPGA versions are necessarily updated with each new software release for the ProCurve 9408sl routing
switch. Also, FPGA versions are not necessarily the same for all interface modules. HP indicates the set of FPGA
files applicable for each software release by appending the software version to the filename. For example, filename
xpp02100c.bin has the XPP images for all interface modules for software version 02.1.00c, which installs these XPP
versions for these interface modules:
Module
4-port 10-GbE
40-port Mini-GBIC
40-port 10/100/1000-T
60-port 10/100/1000-T
Upgrading the FPGA Images
To upgrade the FPGA images on a Gigabit Ethernet module, perform the following steps:
1. Place the new FPGA image(s) on a TFTP server to which the system has access or on a PCMCIA flash card
inserted in slot 1 or 2.
