HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 5.0.0 Command Reference Guide (AA-RW1MA-TE, May 2005)

218 Fabric OS commands
If no operand is specified, the operation becomes interactive and you are prompted for input.
Examples
To download the firmware to an HA switch:
-n Specify this operand to deactivate autocommit mode. By default, after
running this command and after the reboot, the switch performs a
firmwareCommit command automatically. When this mode is disabled,
the user needs to issue the firmwareCommit command manually to
replicate the downloaded image to both partitions of a CP.
-i Specify to activate incremental upgrade mode. By default, this command
installs all the packages in the pfile. When this mode is enabled, the names
of the packages in pfile are compared to those installed on the switch, and
only the packages whose names are different are installed.
host Specify a host server name or IP address: for example, citadel or
“192.168.166.30”. The pfile is downloaded from this host. If this operand
is not used, the pfile is considered to be accessible through a local
directory.
user Specify a user name for FTP server access: for example, “jdoe. This user
name is used to gain access to the host. This operand can be omitted if
pfile is accessible through a local directory or if the FTP user ID is
anonymous.
pfile Specify a fully qualified path and file name: for example,
/v4.4.0/release.plist. Absolute path names might be specified
using forward slash (/).
passwd Specify a password. This operand can be omitted if pfile is accessible
through a local directory or if no password is required by the FTP server.
switch:admin> firmwareDownload
192.168.166.30,johndoe,/pub/dist/release.plist,12345
This command will upgrade both CPs in the switch. If you
want to upgrade a single CP only, please use -s option.
You can run firmwareDownloadStatus to get the status of
this command.
This command will cause the active CP to reset and will
require that existing telnet, secure telnet or SSH sessions
be restarted.
Do you want to continue [Y]:
FirmwareDownload has started in Standby CP. It may take up to 10
minutes.
