10. Click Reboot.
11. To check the CLIM status, log onto its iLO and use the psclim command.
12. To check the version, from the iLO, use the cat /etc/vproc command. The version should
match your new version.
13. Update the form.
14. Continue with the resume normal operations step for your CLIM type.
Upgrading CLIM Firmware with the System Running
NOTE: This is no longer the best method to update CLIM firmware during an RVU upgrade. Since
you will need to bring down the system for the RVU migration, “Upgrading CLIM Software or
Firmware While the System is Down ” (page 165) provides a faster, more efficient method.
Preparing to Update CLIM Firmware with the System Running
This section contains notes, guidelines, and cautions to be followed to reduce the risk of interrupting
network or storage traffic during the firmware updates.
• Firmware versions must be compatible on the system. Verify all firmware versions. For more
information, see the NonStop Firmware Matrices document available on the web at
www.hp.com/go/nonstop-docs. To locate the document, in the main page, click HP Integrity
NonStop Service Information under NonStop Technical Library.
• You can update the firmware on multiple CLIMs by using the OSM Service Connection
Multi-Resource Actions dialog box. If you plan to perform an update the firmware on multiple
CLIMs at once, follow the same grouping scheme described in “Upgrading Multiple CLIMs in
Parallel” (page 160).
If the software or firmware update is to be done on a production NonStop system and storage
or network traffic needs to be maintained, the updates of multiple CLIMs can still be done in
parallel, but consideration has to be given not to affect storage or network traffic. Refer to
“Upgrading Multiple CLIMs in Parallel” (page 160) for the procedure.
• You may not need to update firmware on all Storage CLIMs; for example, if the firmware
update is for FC HBA firmware, you only need to upgrade Storage CLIMs that have an FC
HBA installed.
1. If upgrading firmware from SPRs, place the files in the currently running SYSnn so that
OSM can compare the new and current versions.
2. Check the firmware versions by using OSM Service Connection Multi-Resource Actions
dialog box.
3. Update firmware as appropriate.
• To ensure peak OSM performance, verify to make sure that the -Xmx200m Java runtime
parameter is set:
1. Close all Internet Explorer windows.
2. Go to Control Panel→Start→Java.
3. In the Java Control Panel dialog box, select the Java tab.
4. Under Java Applet Runtime Settings, click View.
5. In the Java Runtime Settings dialog box, make sure that -Xmx200m is entered under the
Java Runtime Parameters column for each supported JRE version listed.
