Task 8: Install the Cluster Switches
Updating the Firmware and Configuration
Use this procedure only if indicated in Table 3-3 on page 3-13. This procedure updates
the firmware and configuration of a new cluster switch to prepare the cluster switch for
installation.
1. Choose a node that can be used to update the firmware and configuration files. If
the cluster switch will be used in a split-star topology, the node must be running
G06.12 (or later) or have all of the Release 2 SPRs listed in Table 3-5. If the cluster
switch will be used in a tri-star topology, the node must be running G06.14 or have
all of the Release 3 SPRs listed in Table 3-5 and be running G06.13.
2. If the node is currently a member of a ServerNet cluster, you must temporarily
remove it from the cluster before connecting it to the cluster switch. You can do this
