  9. 16.7.2 Firmware Version Matching in Addition/Replacement With the Input Power Turned Off

16.7.2 Firmware Version Matching in Addition/Replacement With the Input Power Turned Off


16.7.2 Firmware Version Matching in Addition/Replacement With the Input Power Turned Off
This section describes how to match the version when replacing CPU memory units (lower) (CMUL), replacing XSCF units, adding the SPARC M12-2S/M10-4S, or adding the crossbar box with the input power turned off.
  1. After replacing CPU memory units (lower) (CMUL), replacing XSCF units, adding the SPARC M10-4S, or adding the crossbar box, log in to the XSCF and execute the version command to check the XCP firmware version.
Note - After logging in, if the message "XSCF firmware update now in progress. BB#xx, please wait for XSCF firmware update complete." is displayed, XCP firmware version matching is being automatically executed.
Before starting the next task, execute the showlogs monitor command, and confirm that the message "XCP firmware version synchronization completed" is shown.
  1. The following example shows that, after addition/replacement work done without using the maintenance menu, the firmware version of BB#01 does not match.

Note - After addition/replacement work using the maintenance menu, the firmware versions match on the XSCF units of all the SPARC M12-2S/M10-4S systems and all crossbar boxes.
  1. If a firmware version does not match, execute the flashupdate -c sync command to match it to the master XSCF firmware version.
XSCF> flashupdate -c sync

  1. The target CMU firmware is not updated at this point in time.
  2. Set the XSCF time.
    If the XSCF time has shifted, the logical domain time may shift when the physical partition is powered on.
    For details on how to set the XSCF time, see "6.1.2 Setting the XSCF Time Before System Startup."
  3. Power on the target physical partition so that the CMU firmware version matches.
  1. Execute the poweron command to power on the physical partition.
XSCF> poweron -p xx
  1. Execute the showpparstatus command, and confirm that PPAR Status is "Running."
XSCF> showpparstatus -p xx
PPAR-ID PPAR Status
XX Running
  1. Execute the version command to check the CMU firmware version of the target physical partition.
XSCF> version -c xcp -v
