e-class integrated administrator upgrade problem

Brandon Long — Thu, 09 Nov 2006 15:29:47 GMT

I have two e-class enclosures (BL10e g1 and g2s) that I am trying to upgrade the firmware on.
One is at:
Hardware version 1.0
Software version 1.21
The other is at:
Hardware version 1.0
Software version 1.3

I have downloaded the latest firmware image: cpqia201.bin
and am attempting to load it from the CLI via telnet. On issuing the Update Image command I receive the error: There was an error downloading the image file.

Do I need to upgrade the firmware to an intermediate version prior to using the latest or do I have the wrong file?

Can you do locally with crossover cable only? (Don't use straight)

I found out later in the day that I needed to use the Fully Qualified Domain Name to get to the imagefile.
The examples in the read me didn't reflect a FQDN. Only after I reread the details a couple of times did I wake up and notice the FQDN requirement.
Everything updated correctly once I figured that out.
