Intel® NetStructureTMZT 7102 Chassis Management Module
Updating Software
25.8.3Updating to the Same Synchronization Version
Following an update on the standby CMM to firmware that has the same synchronization version as the active CMM, a full synchronization will occur upon completion of the update (as if a new CMM has been inserted into the chassis). The newly updated CMM will remain as the standby CMM following synchronization.
25.9Single CMM System
When updating CMMs in a system that only contains a single CMM, once the CMM enters the update mode, any components in that system the CMM manages power to may power down because the CMM applications are stopped. Consult your system and board documentation to determine the effect of updating or removing the CMM from the system.
25.10Redundant CMM Systems
In systems with redundant CMMs, the update should be triggered on the standby CMM. An update cannot occur on the active CMM.
Once the CMM enters the update mode, the chassis will lose redundancy for the duration of the update process.
25.11CLI Support
The CLI will support a command for an update request. The syntax of the command is as follows:
cmmset
Where:
Update Package path and filename - The path and file name of the update package file without the
.zip or .md5 extension. For example: “builds/build105b/CMM_P00.105b”
force - Optional argument that causes all components to update regardless of version. This option cause the environment variable FORCE_UPDATE to be set to TRUE.
overwrite - Optional argument that prevents data in the saveList from being preserved. Also, data restore user scripts will not be executed. This option cause the environment variable FORCE_OVERWRITE to be set to TRUE.
The following arguments are used if the update package is located on a remote FTP server. If ftp is supplied as an argument, server and user are also required. Password is optional. If password is not supplied, then ftp will prompt for a password.
ftp - Optional argument used to indicate that the update package resides on a remote ftp server. If this argument is given, the arguments for server, user, and password must also be given.
server - Optional argument that is the name or IP address of a remote ftp server containing the firmware update package.
