Download a Firmware Version to a Director

This procedure downloads a selected firmware version from the HAFM appliance

library to a director managed by the open instance of the Element Manager. The

procedure applies to a director with two (redundant) CTP2 cards. The process

occurs concurrently without taking the director offline or disrupting operation.

The new firmware version takes effect when control is passed from the active to

the backup CTP2 card. Although director operation is not affected, name server,

alias server, and login server functions are momentarily unavailable during CTP2

card switchover.

Note: When downloading a firmware version, follow procedural information in release

notes that accompany the firmware version. This information supplements information

provided in this general procedure.

To download a firmware version to a director:

1. Open the HAFM application. The View All - HAFM 8 main window displays.
