Full Disaster Recovery
If the firmware upgrade fails, causing the Dominion PX device to stop
working, you can recover it by using a special utility rather than returning
the PDU to Raritan.
Contact Raritan Technical Support for the recovery utility, which works in
Windows XP/Vista/7 and Linux. In addition, an appropriate Dominion PX
firmware file is required in the recovery procedure.
Updating the Asset Sensor Firmware
After connecting the asset sensor to the Dominion PX device, it
automatically checks its firmware version against the version of the asset
sensor firmware stored in the Dominion PX firmware. If the asset sensor
firmware version on the Dominion PX device is different, the asset sensor
automatically starts upgrading its firmware in the background.
During the firmware upgrade, the following events take place:
The asset sensor is completely lit up, with the blinking LEDs changing
the color from red to green.
A firmware upgrade process is indicated in the Dominion PX web
interface.
An SNMP trap is sent to indicate the firmware upgrade event.
