How to Use fwupdate to Update an Oracle ILOM Service Processor
Automatic command-line mode uses an XML metadata file that is included in the platform firmware downloads.
The following prerequisites must be met before using the fwupdate command in automatic mode:
You must have root permission to run fwupdate commands on Unix-based platforms, or administrator permission for Windows platforms.
An XML metadata file containing information on platform firmware must be available. Check the firmware release notes to see if this file is available.
For Oracle Solaris systems, after hot-plugging a device, run the devfsadm -C command to reenumerate all of the system device nodes before running the fwupdate command.
When a command fails, it returns one of several failure codes listed in fwupdate Error Codes.
Automatic fwupdate mode uses the following syntax:
fwupdate subcommand target —x filename.xml options
where target is the type of device that is being listed or updated, filename is the XML file that contains the firmware update metadata, and subcommand is one of the following.
