Step 7.
Reboot the system.
1. Set-Up the Hardware Connection For detailed information about the HP Fabric Clustering System Switch
hardware, refer to “Switch Setup” on page 35.
There are two types of hardware connections that can be used to download a new image to the system.
• Out-of-Band connection
Connect the server to the switch ethernet management port, if a connection does not already exist.
• In-Band connection
Use a 4x copper cable to connect from an HP Fabric Clustering System-enabled host to a Fabric port on the HP Fabric
Clustering System Switch system.
2. Check the Image Version This section describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI) to copy the software
that runs the system.
Refer to “Deleting Images Through the CLI” on page 78
Step 1. Enter the privileged-execute mode.
HP-IB> enable
HP-IB#
Step 2. Enter the dir image command.
Note the names of the installed system-images and image files displayed in the file-name column.
If there are already three images installed, there will not enough space for the new image to copy and install.
Delete an existing older image before copying the new image (refer to “Deleting System Images and Image
Files” on page 78).
