Parameters
Parameter Description
enclosure
Identifies the enclosure to which to load new
firmware. Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99.
You must put brackets ([ ]) around the enclosure ID
value.
You can use the following parameters:
• The allEnclosures parameter, which
downloads new firmware to all of the EMMs in
the storage array
• The enclosure parameter, which downloads
new firmware to a specific EMM. If you need to
download new firmware to more than one
EMM, but not all RAID controller modules, you
must enter this command for each storage
array.
file
File path and file name of the file that contains the
firmware image. You must put quotation marks (" ")
around the firmware image file path and file name.
Download Physical Disk Firmware
Description
This command downloads a firmware image to a physical disk.
CAUTION: Downloading physical disk firmware incorrectly can result in damage to the physical
disks or loss of data.
Before attempting to download physical disk firmware, you must take the following precautions:
1. Stop all I/O activity to the storage array before downloading the firmware image.
2. Ensure the firmware image file is compatible with the physical disk enclosure. If you download a file
that is not compatible with the selected physical disk enclosure, the enclosure might become
unusable.
3. Do not make any configuration changes to the storage array while downloading the physical disk
firmware. Attempting to make a configuration change can cause the firmware download to fail and
make the selected physical disks unusable.
