Install the Switch Firmware

1. Ensure that you have a network configuration in place on the switch.

   For more information, refer to the Oracle Switch ES1-24 Installation Guide.

2. Use TFTP, FTP, or the Oracle ILOM web interface to copy the firmware image to your server.
3. Answer the questions that appear on the screen as you proceed through the installation.

   The following example illustrates the upgrade process using FTP from a server with an IP address of 192.168.1.100.

   -> cd /SP/firmware/
   /SP/firmware
    
   -> load -source ftp://username:password@192.168.1.100/Oracle_Switch_ES1-24_sefos-1_3_1_15.pkg
    
   Downloading firmware image. This will take several minutes.
   .
    
   NOTE: An upgrade takes several minutes to complete. ILOM
         will enter a special mode to load new firmware. No
         other tasks can be performed in ILOM until the
         firmware upgrade is complete and ILOM is reset.

   Checking "FPGA image"
    
   Starting FPGA upgrade. This process may take up to 3 minutes.
   Programming FPGA image
   FPGA upgrade requires SEFOS to be stopped. Please wait while
   FPGA is being programmed.
   Skip upgrading FPGA (same version).
   .
   Checking "U-Boot image"
   Starting U-Boot upgrade
   Skip upgrading U-Boot (same version).
    
   Firmware update is complete.
   The system must be reset for the new image to be loaded
    
   -> reset /SP
   Are you sure you want to reset /SP (y/n)? y

   Note - If the hostname was not set prior to upgrade, the switch displays SUNSP-unknown in the login prompt. You must reset the switch a second time to clear this condition.

4. When the switch reboots after the upgrade, type the version command to verify that software version is upgraded.
5. To show the system information, type these commands.

    
   -> cd /SYS/fs_cli
   cd: Connecting to Fabric Switch CLI
