Note - If you are going to downgrade the firmware to a version earlier than 2.0, you must remove user partitions and depopulate the Subnet Manager nodes list. See Gateway Administration, removing partitions for firmware downgrade.
For example:
% ssh -l root nm2name root@nm2name’s password: password #
where nm2name is the host name of the management controller. Initially, the password is changeme.
# disablesm Stopping partitiond daemon. [ OK ] Stopping IB Subnet Manager.. [ OK ] #
# df -h /tmp Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on tmpfs 250M 240K 249M 1% /tmp #
In this example, there are 249 MB available. If not enough space is available, you must delete files from the /tmp directory.
# df -h /config Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda2 16M 3.6M 11M 25% /config #
In this example, there are 11 MB available. If not enough space is available, you must delete files from the /config directory.
# df -h /var/log Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda3 16M 3.6M 11M 25% /var/log #
In this example, there are 11 MB available. If not enough space is available, you must delete files from the /var/log directory.
# free -m total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 498 104 393 0 12 47 -/+ buffers/cache: 45 453 Swap: 0 0 0 #
In the -/+ buffers/cache: row of the free column, there should be at least 150 MB free memory. In this example, there are 453 MB available. If not enough memory is available, you must exit nonessential applications that are running.
The Firmware Upgrade window opens.
A dialog box opens and asks you to confirm.
The Firmware Upgrade window changes to Upgrade mode and now accepts a URL and file name of the gateway firmware package.
Note - For the specified URL, only the FTP or HTTP protocols are supported.
Oracle ILOM transfers the gateway firmware package to the management controller. Oracle ILOM verifies the package integrity and displays the current versions of the firmware and versions in the package.
A dialog box opens and asks you to confirm.
The upgrade begins and the status of the upgrade is reported.
When the upgrade process ends, a log and summary report are displayed.
A final status is displayed, the upgrade either:
Succeeded
Partially succeeded
Failed
See Gateway Administration, restarting the entire gateway.
Note - The restart process takes between 4 to 5 minutes to complete.
You can monitor the update progress through:
web browser – http://gateway_name
CLI – telnet gateway_name 1234
where gateway_name is the host name or IP address of the management controller.
Note - The Oracle ILOM stack requires at least 2 minutes to become operational after a reboot.
% ssh -l root gateway_name root@gateway_name’s password: password # enablesm Starting IB Subnet Manager. [ OK ] Starting partitiond daemon. [ OK ] # exit
