=== Update X04 Card FRU ===

Revision as of 10:41, 27 June 2013

Overview

There are 2 types of FRUs (EEPROMs) we are going to update:

  • Node FRU
    • X04 has 1 node FRU between all 4 nodes. One image for that one FRU.
    • Dual node uplink has a node FRU for each node. Each node FRU has a different image
  • Slot FRU
    • One FRU per SystemBoard slot. Can only be programmed when a card is plugged into it – can use any node on that card but I have only tested with the first node on each card.
    • NOTE – there is a different image for EVERY slot!

Prerequisites

Hardware

  • At least one TerraNova uplink card is required
  • At least three X04 EnergyCards are required

Firmware

  • All SOCs need to be running firmware package 2.2.10 or higher

Update Process

Update FW

  • Refer to the firmware update guidelines on this wiki but the basic command is:
Jon@ubuntu1204-cobbler:~$ cxmanage -a fwupdate package ECX-1000_update-production-v2.2.10.tar.gz nova0-ipmi
  • Power cycle the system and repeat above command to ensure both primary and backup FW images have been programmed.
