Firmware Update Script
The update script is supported through the Xg_FWUpdate.vbs
command. You run the script through Cscript, and contains
different arguments that provide flexibility in the way the script runs. The
following example shows the syntax of the Xg_FWUpdate.vbs
command:
Xg_FWUpdate.vbs [-v <0 | 1 | 2 | 3>] [-l LogFilename] [-h]
[<-s [<-dlist> | <-d HCA_ID -f FirmwareFile> | <-all [-detect] [-MinVer | -
MaxVer]>]
These are the arguments in the Xg_FWUpdate.vbs command.
|
|
-v <0|1|2|3>
|
An optional choice list that sets the verbosity level of the
script output:
-
-v 0 sets no logging of messages. This mode is useful
for scripts.
-
-v 1 sets minimum logging of messages. This mode is
the default.
-
-v 2 sets logging of messages with some debug
information included.
-
-v 3 sets logging of messages with all debug
information written to the update log.
|
-l LogFilename
|
An optional argument that specifies the name of the Update
Log. By default, the log is named
Xg_FWUpdate.log. The log is for Oracle
personnel only. Do not use the Update Log unless directed to do
so by Oracle.
|
-h
|
An optional argument that displays help text and exploded
command syntax for the Xg_FWUpdate.vbs
command.
|
-s <-dlist> |
<-d HCA_ID -f FirmwareFile>|
<-all [-detect]
[-MinVer|-MaxVer]>
|
Sets script mode to answer in the affirmative to all prompts,
and sets specific controls for the script:
-dlist displays a list of all the HCA
Device IDs in the server.
-d
HCA_ID specifies a comma-separated list of
HCA Device IDs.
-f
FirmwareFile specifies the full path and file
name of the firmware image that will be burned onto the HCA.
This argument is useful if you are burning third-party HCA
images. Do not use third-party images unless directed to do so
by Oracle personnel.
-all causes the firmware update script to
burn firmware on all HCA devices in the current system.
-detect causes the preburn validation check
to determine if the HCA cards in the server are supported Device
IDs and whether they have the supported minimum firmware version
installed. If the preburn validation check finds an error, an
error code is displayed.
-MinVer causes the supported minimum
firmware version to be burned onto all HCAs present in the
server.
-MaxVer causes the supported maximum
firmware version to be burned onto all HCAs present in the
server.
