DOWNLOAD command
Use the DOWNLOAD command to download firmware to a particular
device. DOWNLOAD transfers the contents of a particular firmware file to a
device. It prompts the user for any arguments that were not specified on
the command line.
NOTE Once the download begins, do not interrupt the process, or the devices to
which the firmware is being loaded could be rendered useless.
The syntax for the DOWNLOAD command is:
DISMAP <filename> <disk index>
filename must match one of the file names in the LIF file table, and
index must match one of the index numbers in the bootable device list
(displayed when the program starts). If the file specified does not have
the same vendor and product ID as the device whose index number is
specified, an error message will be issued to the operator and the
download will be aborted.
As an example, to download firmware to the SCSI MUX HPA3308 (the
mux controller firmware), enter the following command line:
DFDUTIL> download MUX1 0
dfdutil prompts the user for confirmation since FC-SCSI_MUX does
not match the product ID of the device, HPA3308.
To download to FRUs in an array, enter the following command line:
DFDUTIL> download firmware_file_name 2.1
