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 Information section
of the Support and Service collection of the NonStop Technical Library at www.hp.com/go/
nonstop-docs, and ensure you have compatible firmware levels for all CLIM components.
For instructions on upgrading CLIM firmware when a system is halted and when it is running, see
the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
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 T0682H02^ADH or later.
• OSM Console Tools product T0634G06^ABD 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, 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 Master Installer on NonStop System
Console Installer DVD, Update 18 or later. Support Note S12023 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 and the OSM Service
Connection online help.
Managing S-Series Interoperability Firmware
NOTE: See the NonStop Firmware Matrices for product levels. To find out if your NonStop system
supports interoperability with S-series systems, see the planning guide for your system.
