Using OSM, Update Processor Boot Code Using the Online
Option and G06.24 or Later OSM SPRs
If you have at least the G06.24 OSM client and SPRS installed and configured, HP
recommends use of the explicit online option because it enables you to update the
processor boot code without resetting the processors on completion of the update. You
can update the processor boot code for NonStop S-series servers (S70000, S7x000,
S7600, S7800, S7400, and S8x000) without taking the processor down for a hard
reset. The online firmware update actions do not appear if the system is an S7000.
1. Log on to the OSM Service Connection.
2. Select Display> Multi-Resource Actions. The Multi-Resource Actions dialog box
appears with unselected fields.
Caution. To use OSM to update processor boot code online, you must have already installed
and configured T2728AAL. Otherwise, a processor halt will result. If you have not configured
the G06.24 or later OSM server side components, follow the instructions to update boot code
in Using OSM, Update the Processor Boot Code and Issue a Hard Reset or Equivalent on
page 8-14.
