HPM.1 Reliable Field Upgrade Procedure
The HPM.1 upgrade procedure is managed by a utility called the Upgrade Agent. The
Impitool utility is used as an Upgrade Agent for upgrading the ATCA-9305 IPMC firmware.
The Upgrade Agent communicates with the IPMC firmware via the payload serial interface
or IPMC-0, and uses the AdvancedTCA commands that are described in the HPM.1 specifica-
tion for upgrading the firmware. Updated firmware is packed into an image formatted in
compliance with the HPM.1 specification. That image is used by Upgrade Agent to prepare
and upgrade the IPMC firmware. The HPM.1 upgrade procedure includes the following
steps:
Preparation: This step erases the region in the flash memory where the component image will be writ-
ten.
Component Upload: This step is designed to upload the component image via IPMB or payload interface and
write it into the flash memory.
Component Activation:This step activates the previously upgraded component. This step can be deferred and per-
formed later.
For more details, refer to the HPM.1 specification listed in
Ta bl e 1 - 2.
