Firmware Update Tasks and Applicable CLI Targets
Use the following table to help identify Oracle ILOM firmware
update tasks and CLI targets.
The following table does not provide the full CLI path to the
/SP target on all managed devices. For instance, to access
the /SP target from either a multi-domain SPARC server, a blade
system CMM, or a Netra FMM, append the applicable CLI properties to the beginning of
the /SP target:
-
SPARC multi-domain server, where applicable, append:
/Servers/PDomains/PDomain_n
-
Blade system CMM, where applicable, append:
/Servers/Blades/Blade_n
-
Netra frame system FMM, where applicable, append:
/Servers/ComputeNodes/ComputeNode_n
Note -
Not all firmware CLI targets are supported on all managed devices. Use the
help command to view the namespeace targets supported
on a managed device . For example,
help /SP/Firmware | help
/CMM/Firmware | help /FMM/Firmware
For detailed information about how to perform Oracle ILOM
firmware updates, see the topics listed in the Related Information
section that appears after the table.
