Upgrade the Host (SEFOS)

Language:

Upgrade the host at the ES2-> prompt.

Log in as root.

Connect to the host console or ssh to the host IP address.

Determine if the firmware version running on the host needs to be upgraded.
Run the version command and compare the SP filesystem version to the version in the new image.
In the ES2-72_64_SEFOS_2.0.0.7.pkg, the version number is 2.0.0.7.
```
ES2-> version
SP firmware 3.2.5.60
SP firmware build number: 100744
SP firmware date: Wed Jul 15 11:07:33 PDT 2015
SP filesystem version: 2.0.0.3 
```

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

Use TFTP, FTP, SCP, HTTP, HTTPS, or SFTP to upgrade the host image.

Note - The Oracle ILOM web interface is not supported on the host.

Answer the questions that appear on the screen as you proceed through the upgrade.

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

Note - You must reboot the host after the upgrade. The switching and routing functions are disrupted while the switch reboots.

-> load -source ftp://username:password@192.168.1.100/ES2-72_64_SEFOS_2.0.0.7.pkg
Enter remote user password: enter password
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.

When the switch reboots after the upgrade, type the version command to verify that software version is upgraded.

To show the system information, type these commands.

Note - Due to the fix for "Bug 21810986 - FS privilege feature for ES2-72 x86 platform" the non-root local users do not get restored after upgrade to 2.0.0.7. You must recreate the local users and assign the fs_privilege level explicitly.
