Update the Firmware on a 3886-6530 Flash RAM
Card without Using ASL (optional)
If the Flash RAM card is unintentionally write-protected, the following Local -099-
message is displayed after the SHOW AWAN command:
Because the Flash RAM card was write-protected, 6530 initialization failed and AWAN
T6530 features were not detected. Make sure that the small switch is not positioned at
the center of the card causing the card to be write-protected. If the switch is incorrectly
positioned, do the following steps:
1. Move the switch over and place the Flash RAM card in the AWAN server again.
2. Reboot the server by turning power off and then on, or by using the CLI command
INITIALIZE DELAY 0.
3. At the CLI prompt, use the SHOW AWAN command (Example 2-6 on page 2-13)
again to make sure that 6530 features are enabled.
4. After verifying that the AWAN features are enabled, repeat the update procedure
starting at 2c.
See Section 3, Troubleshooting AWAN 3886 Servers, Troubleshooting Using the
Power-on Sequence on page 3-5 or your service provider for assistance for any Flash
RAM initialization problems.
Update the Firmware on a 3886-6530 Flash RAM Card without
Using ASL (optional)
If ASL is not available, in most cases, the download can be performed from any TFTP
server, including the TFTP server on the HP NonStop host system.
1. To determine if this direct TFTP download is possible, use the SHOW SERVER
CLI command:
Local> SHOW SERVER
(You can also use the LIST SERVER command.The LIST SERVER command
displays the permanent configuration settings that will survive the reboot.)
The first line of the SHOW SERVER or LIST SERVER display contains the
software version. The output will look similar to the following:
Network Access SW V2.6 AW53.01 for DS716 ROM V7.3-0
Uptime: 0 04:20:16
The ROM version is essential: ROM versions V7.2, and later, support direct TFTP;
ROM versions earlier than V7.2 require ASL for download.
2. Before upgrading, review software version information on DECserver Network
Access (DNAS) Version 2.4 (or later) and AWAN 6530 Code on page 1-21.
Example 2-8. SHOW AWAN Status: Flash RAM Card Write-Protected
