Setting EM firmware image
When you update the EM firmware, you have to provide a new EM firmware image file on an external
server. The server places on the network which can be accessed from the EM firmware and the server
provides one of following services: a tftp service, an ftp service, or an http service.
TIPS:
When you are using a firewalled server to set EM firmware image, make sure that the target port
is available. When using an ftp server, make sure that the ftp server is set to passive mode.
When DeploymentManager (DPM) is installed on a server to set an EM firmware image, the tftp
service derived from DPM may be already being operated. In such a case, DPM‟s tftp server
may prevent operation of the other tftp servers. To start the other tftp server for setting EM
firmware image, you must stop the tftp server of DPM. The DPM‟s tftp server, which works as a
Windows service, can be stopped from “Service” on management tool. (For DPM, refer to the
user‟s guide of DPM.
For information on using OS, refer to the operation manual of OS.)
When backing up configuration data to a tftp server, create a file to store configuration data on
the backup folder. Set access right of the new file to allow the EM firmware to modify the file.
(For details, refer to the manual of the tftp server software.)
When two EM cards are installed to the enclosure, both of EM cards must be able to access to
the server to set an EM firmware image.
※ When 2 EM cards are installed to the enclosure, both of EM
cards must be able to access to the server.
