Update ServerNet/FX and ServerNet/FX2 Firmware
(Overview)
•
Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA)
Note that the ServerNet/FX and ServerNet/FX 2 adapters do not have the autofirmup
feature. Use either the TSM Service Application, or if installed, the OSM Service
Connection. Only an HP service provider is authorized to install and configure an
FCSA and G4SA.
Update ServerNet/FX and ServerNet/FX2 Firmware (Overview)
ServerNet/FX and ServerNet/FX 2 adapters cannot be managed automatically through
the autofirmup feature.
The FOX ring consists of two fiber-optic rings for fault tolerance. In each NonStop
S-series server, two ServerNet/FX (FXSA) or ServerNet/FX 2 adapter (FXSA2) field-
replaceable units (FRUs) are installed:
•
The FOX-X controller connects to the FOX-X ring.
•
The FOX-Y controller connects to the FOX-Y ring.
On the ServerNet side, one FXSA/FXSA2 FRU connects to the ServerNet X fabric, and
the other FXSA FRU connects to the ServerNet Y fabric. The ServerNet/FX is
considered a field-replaceable unit because of the necessary fiber-optic cable
connection.
If you are currently running a T0059AAB version (released in G05.00) of ServerNet/FX
firmware (T0059G05^19MAR98^04MAR98), you do not need to upgrade ServerNet/FX
FRUs.
To Load the FXSA or FX2SA Firmware (Using TSM)
1. Use SCF to stop the FXSA or FXSA2 FRU.
2. Log on to the TSM Service Application.
3. Select Display> Firmware Update.
4. From the Resource Type list, select ServerNet/FX FRU.
5. From the Display list, select All and then click Add All.
6. Click Specify other to specify the firmware source file location.
7. Click Perform action to start the firmware update process.
When the process is finished, the TSM Action dialog displays Completed and confirms
that FOX firmware is updated.
