4.368 flash-card

Use this command to load all flash images (GPL) supported by a specified card. This command performs the same functions as the init-flash and the act-flash commands.

Parameters

code (mandatory)
The GPL type to be loaded.
Range:
appr
Approved GPL
trial
Trial GPL
loc (mandatory)
Card address. The location of the card as stenciled on the shelf of the system.
Range:
1101 - 1108, 1111 - 1113, 1115, 1201 - 1208, 1211 - 1218, 1301 - 1308, 1311 - 1318, 2101 - 2108, 2111 - 2118, 2201 - 2208, 2211 - 2218, 2301 - 2308, 2311 - 2318, 3101 - 3108, 3111 - 3118, 3201 - 3208, 3211 - 3218, 3301 - 3308, 3311 - 3318, 4101 - 4108, 4111 - 4118, 4201 - 4208, 4211 - 4218, 4301 - 4308, 4311 - 4318, 5101 - 5108, 5111 - 5118, 5201 - 5208, 5211 - 5218, 5301 - 5308, 5311 - 5318, 6101 - 6108, 6111 - 6118
force (optional)
This parameter is used to force the command to work on an IS-NR card. Links provisioned on the card are inhibited during command execution. The card and inhibited links are restored to their previous state when the command is completed.
Range:
yes
no
Default:
no
mode (optional)
This parameter converts the flash GPL of cards present in the Upgrade SET lists (RTRV-UPGRADE-CONFIG:DISPLAY=SETS)
Range:
migrate2
Flashes all the cards present in the Upgrade SETs that are running on BLMCAP and/or BLSLC32. Converts BLMCAP to BLDC32 and BLSLC32 to BLSLC932 respectively.

Cards running BLDC32 or BLSLC64 are not affected.

Uses the data in the SETs to decide which cards to migrate simultaneously. The migration sequence follows the same sequence as used by the Upgrade operations. The OAM cancels the links and boots the cards as the flash GPL changes occur. The use of SETs by the OAM ensures that sufficient signaling link capacity remains available at all times, and prevents disabling all links in the same linkset.

Example

flash-card:loc=1105:code=trial

flash-card:loc=1105:code=appr:force=yes

flash-card:mode=migrate2

Dependencies

Cards do not have to be provsioned to use the flash-card command. However, if the specified card is provisioned and not inhibited, use of the force parameter is required.

The specified card locations must be running a flashable software image.

This command cannot be used to load flash images for MUX cards. Use the init-flash command.

If the even-numbered E5-TDM (1114,1116) is specified, the flash occurs on the odd-numbered E5-MCAP running OAM (1113,1115).

The specified card location cannot be the active E5-MASP (either the active E5-MCAP or the active E5-TDM).

No other action command can be in progress when this command is entered.

The card specified in the location parameter must be present and able to communicate over the IMT. The card does not have to be provisioned in the database.

If the card is already running the specified code load, it cannot be loaded by this command.

This command cannot be entered if an IMT Rate Change sequence is in progress.

This command cannot be entered during an Extended Bit Error Rate Test (BERT).

Notes

The specified card must be present and able to communicate over the IMT.

A card that is already running the specified code load cannot be reflashed using the force parameter. The act-flash and init-flash commands must then be used to reload the same code level.
