Additional Information

When you run this command, you can download more than one firmware image file to the physical disks in a storage array. The number of firmware image files that you can download depends on the storage array. The MD storage management software returns an error if you try to download more firmware image files than the storage array can accept.

You can schedule downloads for multiple physical disks at the same time, including multiple physical disks in a redundant disk group. Each firmware image file contains information about the physical disk types on which the firmware image runs. The specified firmware images can be downloaded only to a compatible physical disk. Use the download physicalDisk firmware command to download a firmware image to a specific physical disk.

The download storageArray physicalDiskFirmware command blocks all I/ O activity until a download try has been made for each candidate physical disk or you run the stop storageArray downloadPhysicalDiskFirmware command. When the download storageArray physicalDiskFirmware command finishes downloading the firmware image, each candidate physical disk shows the download status for each physical disk. One of these statuses is returned:

Successful
