Chapter 17: Installing/Updating Emulator Firmware
To update emulator firmware with "progflash"
To update emulator firmware with "progflash"
• Enter the progflash -v <emul_name> <products ...> command.
The progflash command downloads code from files on the host computer into
Flash EPROM memory in the HP 64700.
The -v option means "verbose". It causes progress status messages to be displayed
during operation.
The <emul_name> option is the logical emulator name as specified in the
/usr/hp64000/etc/64700tab.net file.
The <products> option names the products whose firmware is to be updated.
If you enter the progflash command without options, it becomes interactive. If you
don't include the <emul_name> option, it displays the logical names in the
/usr/hp64000/etc/64700tab.net file and asks you to choose one. If you don't
include the <products> option, it displays the products which have firmware update
files on the system and asks you to choose one. (In the interactive mode, only one
product at a time can be updated.) You can abort the interactive progflash
command by pressing <CTRL>c.
progflash will print "Flash programming SUCCEEDED" and return 0 if it is
successful; otherwise, it will print "Flash programming FAILED" and return a
nonzero (error).
You can verify the update by displaying the firmware version information.
