Updating Software

„Define commands must be used because Set configurations are cleared when the Server boots. Use the List Server Boot command to check set- tings before rebooting.

NOTE: It is very important to check the Server settings before using the Initialize Reload command to ensure that you are reloading the correct software file.

K.4.1 Reloading Sequence

If DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP is enabled on the Server, the Server will request assistance from a DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server before starting the download attempts. The Server will then try TFTP, NetWare, and MOP booting, in that order, provided that it has enough information to try each download method.

Downloading and rewriting the Flash ROM will take approximately two minutes from the time the Initialize command is issued. If the download file cannot be found or accessed, the Server can be rebooted with the code still in Flash ROM. As noted in Chapter 2, the OK/ACT LED will blink quickly while the Server is booting (and reloading code) and then slowly when it returns to normal operation.

NOTE: If you experience problems reloading Flash ROM, refer to Troubleshooting Flash ROM Updates on page K-10.
