Re: How could I know the firmware version of new cellboard that need to be add in running system.
but after connecting the cell board to the server
u can login to the MP console and find the firmware version for ur cell board using
sysrev command in command prompt
for example
MP:cm> sysrev
from the mp console itself we can update the firmware version using
fw in mp prompt
example
MP:>fw
commands may differ for consoles so use help command
MP:>he
i hope it helps

Re: How could I know the firmware version of new cellboard that need to be add in running system.
The firmware update does contain firmware images for the cell boards (as well as MP). The update process is not as straightforward as previous systems so be sure to go through the instructions before attempting. In short, the patch is downloaded and un-tarred to a machine that is ftp accessible to the rp7420's Core IO/MP lan. You then update a section of the server at a time. When you download the firmware image you get a fairly detailed instruction manual that explains the process.
Of course, if you have a hardware contract, you can request that the hardware provider to the work. Just note that this does require the OS be down and can take a good hour if you have to update all components.
Thanks,
Johnson
