Loading IP4700 Software
Loading IP4700 Software
The steps in this section guide you through the firmware/software
loading process. They begin with verifying and, if necessary, flashing
new firmware to each storage processor. You must follow the remaining
steps in the exact order listed. They describe how to load an IP4700
software image from the hard drive in your conversion kit (“seed
disk”) to the system.
Locate the IP4700 seed disk (P/N 005047310) in your conversion kit and have
it available before you begin this procedure.
1. Connect a Windows
®
console to SP A through the serial port, as
shown in Step 3 of the IP4700 Quick Start Guide.
2. Start a HyperTerminal session.
3. If necessary, turn on ac cabinet power to the side that powers SPS
A, then to the side that powers SPS B. Turn the SPS A power
switch to the on position, then do the same for SPS B.
Since the current 0, 1, and 2 drives do not contain a loadable
image, the autoboot will fail. The following screen displays the
error.
Wait for the system to display the FS > prompt before
continuing with Step 4.
