Upgrading Your Dell PowerVault Fibre Channel Software and Firmware 9-13
2. In the Array Configuration window, click Array, and then click Firmware
Download.
The Firmware Download window displays the name of the storage system on
which the LIC will be updated.
3. In the Enter Full Path Name of File field, type the complete path of the LIC
update file that you want to download.
4. From the Select Host drop-down menu, click the name of the server where the
LIC file is located.
5. Set the storage processors to reboot automatically after the LIC update by check-
ing Automatic Reboot.
The new LIC update does not take effect until the storage processors are
rebooted. The storage processors reboot automatically after the LIC download is
complete if Automatic Reboot is enabled. When you reboot the storage sys-
tems storage processor, you may have to restart the Dell OpenManage Data
Managed Node Data Agent on the storage systemsserver.
If the LIC update also includes a more recent PROM version than what is in the
storage processors, you must check Automatic Reboot; the storage processors
update their PROM the first time you load a new LIC update only. If you do not
put a check mark in the Automatic Reboot check box, the storage processors do
not download the PROM update, which may be required by the LIC update.
6. Click OK.
7. In the LIC license agreement window, click Ye s to accept the agreement and
start downloading the LIC update.
8. When you see that the download has been completed successfully, click OK.
9. Reconfigure the array caching. For details, see "Configuring an Array" in the
Dell
OpenManage Data Supervisor, Event Monitor, and Integrator Installation and
Operation Guide
.
NOTE: The size of the new LIC update may cause memory sizing constraints that
prevent you from reconfiguring the array cache. If this happens, reconfigure the
memory partitions after the storage processors are rebooted (either manually or
automatically).
10. If you did not enable Automatic Reboot, reboot the storage processors. You can
reboot the storage processors in the array either by shutting down the array and
then powering it up again or by using the rebootSP Data CLI command. If you
use the command, you may have to stop and restart the Dell OpenManage Data
Managed Node Data Agent on the server after the storage processors reboot.
For details on the rebootSP command, see the
Dell OpenManage Data CLI for
NT Installation and Operation Guide
.
NOTE: If the new version of the LIC detects that the cache was not deconfigured
before the update, the
949h Illegal UpRev Configuration
message is
logged for each logical unit number (LUN) in the system, no LUNs are assigned,
