updating Firmware on HP B-series 8/24c SAN Switch BladeSystem c-Class

I have downloaded the firmware update for the model shown in the title.

But I cannot find any clear instructions on how to install the firmware

The OA has a link to the Management Console of the FC Module but when I click on it I

only see the OA again any thoughts on this would be appreciated

Hi Ross,

 

Please read page 39 of 8Gb SAN Switch User Guide

http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01505736/c01505736.pdf

and pdf pages 227-229 (Upgrading firmware...) of Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide:

http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02591330/c02591330.pdf

 

In short: put FW to ftp server, telnet to SAN switch, use firmwareDownload command.

 

HTH,

Oleg

Hello, You can go to this post, I had upgraded a lot of B-series 8/24c SAN Switch BladeSystem c-Class and HP StorageWorks 8/24 SAN  and no problem, the only thing is to be carefull with the path upgrade, I prefer to make them interspersed.
