For information on required software, installation, migration, and fallback procedures, see the
ServerNet Cluster 6780 Planning and Installation Guide.
Table 5 (page 35) lists the file name and locations for the updateable firmware information for the
cluster switch. Check with Scout for the latest SPRs. See the NonStop Firmware Matrices document
at: www.hp.com/go/nonstop-docs for product levels.

Managing CLIM Firmware
If your system has CLIMs attached, it is very important that your CLIM firmware is compatible with
your system. Refer to the NonStop Firmware Matrices, located in the Service and maintenance
information section of the HP Integrity NonStop Service Information collection of the NonStop
Technical Library at http://www.hp.com/go/nonstop-docs, and ensure you have compatible
firmware levels for all CLIM components.
In the past, the OSM Service Connection was used to perform the upgrade. The Down System
CLIM Firmware Update Tool now provides a faster, more efficient method for updating CLIM
firmware in a single action while the system is halted during an RVU upgrade. To use this method,
you must have:
• OSM Service Connection version T0682 H02 ACV or later.
• OSM Console Tools product T0634 G06 ABB or later. When installed on the NonStop system
console (as part of OSM Console Tools), the Down System CLIM Firmware Update Tool is
launched from the Windows Start menu by selecting All Programs > HP OSM > Down System
CLIM Firmware Update Tool. For information on installing OSM Console Tools, see the NonStop
System Console Installer Guide.
NOTE: See Support Note SN 12023 (OSM application issues with Administrator user on NSC)
for instructions on preventing authentication failures from occurring on NonStop System Consoles
when using these OSM tools: Down System CLIM Firmware Update, Update HSS and Copy HSS
file actions in OSM low-level link applications, and connecting to a peer NSC from the NonStop
Maintenance LAN DHCP DNS Configuration Wizard or the CLIM Boot Service Configuration
Wizard.
A fix of this problem is automatically installed when you run the Masterinstaller on NonStop System
Console Installer DVD, Update 18 or later. Support Note S 12023 describes another workaround
option if you do not have the Update 18 or later DVD.
To perform the CLIM Firmware upgrade when the system is halted, before halting the system, use
the OSM Service Connection and perform the Prepare for Down System CLIM Firmware Update
action, then use the Down System CLIM Firmware Update Tool. For more information, see the
Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
