Upgrading the Cyclades PM IPDU Firmware
Starting with version 1.1.0, the Cyclades PM IPDU firmware may be upgraded through its IN port.
The upgrade procedure described here is only valid for units that are currently running firmware versions 1.3.0 or greater. If your Cyclades PM IPDU is running an older firmware version, please follow the instructions in the manual that corresponds to the firmware currently installed on the PM IPDU. Visit ftp://ftp.cyclades.com/pub/cyclades/alterpath/pm/doc/ for older versions of
this manual.
To upgrade PM IPDU firmware:
1.Download the new Cyclades PM IPDU firmware from the Cyclades web site.
After downloading the Cyclades PM IPDU firmware file, save it to the workstation connected to the Cyclades PM IPDU console (IN port).
2.Using either Hyperterminal or Minicom, log into the Cyclades PM IPDU as admin and type in the command:
pm>upgrade <IPDU#>
If you are currently logged in as a different user, log out and then login as admin.
The <IPDU#> is the number of the IPDU to which you want to upgrade the firmware. If you have only one Cyclades PM IPDU, type upgrade 1. If you have, for instance, three units in a daisy chain, type upgrade 3 or upgrade 2 depending on which unit you want to upgrade.
NOTE: If you have a daisy chain and you want to upgrade all units, you should start from the last unit and work your way towards the first.
