Managing ServerNet Adapter Firmware
3. Load (coldload) the system with the H06.05 RVU.
c. Update NonStop Blade Complex (NSBC) firmware on the other flash, as
follows:
1. Using the OSM Service Connection and the Blade Complex Firmware
Update guided procedure, complete the dialog boxes and update the
shadow firmware on each NonStop Blade Element.
2. Using the Switch Blade Element Firmware Images dialog box, select NO.
3. Repeat Steps 1and 2 for the other NonStop Blade Complexes.
Managing ServerNet Adapter Firmware
This manual covers only the ServerNet adapters supported in I/O adapter modules
(IOAMS):
•
Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA)
•
Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet adapter (G4SA)
To update firmware for ServerNet adapters connected to legacy IOMF2 CRUs, see the
latest G-series Software Installation and Upgrade Guide.
To see if the ServerNet adapter firmware needs to be updated, navigate down the
OSM tree pane for FCSA and G4SA:
Note. OSM will preselect all the firmware that it detects as down-rev.
Note. Update all NonStop Blade Elements in the complex at this time.
Note. Before connecting a NonStop S-series system to an Integrity NonStop NS-series
system through legacy I/O, you must first update the firmware for both the S-series Gigabit 4-
port ServerNet adapter (G4SA) and the Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA). Firmware
for both the G4SA and FCSA adapters used for S-series systems is not initially compatible with
Integrity NonStop NS-series systems.
If you have a NonStop S-series system that is connected to the Integrity NonStop NS-series
system via Expand or ServerNet Clusters, you do not need to initialize the G4SA or FCSA
firmware.
Caution. Ensure that the system is running the new H06.05 RVU before starting this
procedure.
