49HP StorageWorks 2/8q Fibre Channel Switch Installation Guide
Maintenance menu – Remake Filesystem
In the event of sudden loss of power, it is possible that the switch configuration may become
corrupt. The file system on which the configuration is stored must be re-created. This option
resets the switch to the factory default values including user accounts and zoning. Refer to the
HP StorageWorks 2/8q Fibre Channel Switch Management User Guide for the factory default
values.
Note: If you choose the Remake Filesystem option, you lose all changes made to the fabric
configuration that involve that switch, such as password and zoning changes. You must then
reconfigure the portions of the fabric that involve the switch.
Maintenance menu – Reset Switch
This option closes the Telnet session, exits maintenance mode and reboots the switch using the
current switch configuration. All unpacked firmware image files that reside on the switch are
deleted.
Maintenance menu – Show Firmware Versions
This option displays the image numbers and firmware versions that are stored on the switch.
Maintenance menu – Set Active Image
This option specifies the firmware version to be used when the switch returns to normal
operation. A message reminds you of the pending firmware version and gives you an
opportunity to change it by selecting the other image number.
Maintenance menu – Update Boot Loader
This option updates the system boot loader. This is the program that loads the Linux kernel
into memory. Use this option only at the direction of your HP Authorized Maintenance
Provider.
