Firmware Update Tool
When started, the firmware update tool will examine the firmware
revision of the current SCSI device, and then search the directory
/var/tmp for firmware files that are compatible with the device. The
internal headers of any firmware files present in this directory will be
checked. If compatible files are found, it will select the most current
version and pop up a dialog box asking if you want to update
firmware immediately. If you select
update the device firmware and display text messages indicating the
status in the firmware update menu window.
If no files are found (or no compatible files are found), it will display
an error message stating that no compatible files were found,
followed by a dialog box prompting the user to change the directory
path where the tool searches for firmware files.
If you have enabled the licensed firmware update tool, you can start
it by selecting
[Utility]
firmware update menu bar. A list of several compatible firmware files
will be displayed in the dialog box that pops up. You can select from
a list of files, and then select
update process.
NOTE After updating firmware, allow time for the device to initialize
and test itself. Power cycling the device before this process
has completed may result in product failure and the inability
to perform further updates.
