Updating Software
Some BOOTP and TFTP implementations require a specific directory for the ETS*.SYS file. See your host’s documentation for instructions.
To manually configure the ETS IP parameters for software reload, use the following commands.
Figure D-2. Configuring TCP/IP Reload
Local> SET PRIVILEGED Password> SYSTEM (not echoed)
Local>> DEFINE SERVER IPADDRESS nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn Local>> DEFINE SERVER SOFTWARE “/tftpboot/ETS*.SYS”
Local>> DEFINE SERVER LOADHOST nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn Local>> LIST SERVER BOOT
Local>> INITIALIZE RELOAD
Note: For instructions on how to log into the ETS to enter these commands, see the Getting Started chapter.
The path and filename are
NetWare
The ETS*.SYS file should be placed in the login directory on the NetWare file server. The ETS cannot actually log into the file server (since it knows no username/password); it can only access files in the login directory itself. On the ETS, specify the file server name, filename, and path.
Figure D-3. Configuring NetWare Reload
Local> SET PRIVILEGED Password> SYSTEM (not echoed)
Local>> DEFINE SERVER NETWARE LOADHOST fileserver
Local>> DEFINE SERVER SOFTWARE SYS:\LOGIN\ETS*.SYS
Local>> INITIALIZE RELOAD
MOP
The ETS*.SYS filename is the only parameter that the ETS needs to reload via MOP. Make sure the service characteristic is enabled on the host's Ethernet circuit, copy the ETS*.SYS file to the MOM$LOAD directory, and reload the ETS using the Initialize Reload command. Be sure to use binary mode for the file transfer.
