Upgrading Multiple CLIMs of Different Types
1. Follow the procedures for dividing the CLIMs into groups as described in “Upgrading Groups
of Storage CLIMs (page 160), “Upgrading Groups of IP CLIMs (page 162), and “Upgrading
Groups of Telco CLIMs” (page 164) and complete the form as shown in Table 15: Sample
populated IP CLIM group upgrade form:

2. Follow the procedures for completing the preparation steps for each CLIM type as described
in “Upgrading Groups of Storage CLIMs” (page 160), “Upgrading Groups of IP CLIMs
(page 162), and “Upgrading Groups of Telco CLIMs” (page 164).
3. Follow the procedures for upgrading the CLIMs, using appropriate groups such that a backup
of each CLIM remains active during the procedure, by following the upgrade procedure as
described in “Upgrading Groups of Storage CLIMs” (page 160), “Upgrading Groups of IP
CLIMs” (page 162), and “Upgrading Groups of Telco CLIMs” (page 164). You can upgrade
multiple types of CLIMs at a time.
4. Follow the procedures for resuming operations as described in “Upgrading Groups of Storage
CLIMs (page 160), “Upgrading Groups of IP CLIMs (page 162), and “Upgrading Groups of
Telco CLIMs” (page 164).
Upgrading CLIM Software or Firmware While the System is Down
This section describes how to update CLIM software and firmware during planned system down
time, such as during an RVU upgrade, and provides guidance on optimizing CLIM software and
firmware updates during an RVU upgrade. Updating CLIM software and firmware when the system
is down, when there is no need to maintain network or storage traffic, is the fastest, most efficient
method. All CLIM firmware can be updated simultaneously through the Down System CLIM Firmware
Update Tool. To update CLIM firmware when the system is down, you must also have the following
