Installing Firmware

New firmware becomes available periodically either on CD-ROM or from the QLogic web site. Installing firmware on a switch involves the following steps:

1.Download the firmware image file to the switch.

2.Unpack the firmware image file.

3.Activate the new firmware. The activation can be disruptive or non-disruptive. Refer to “Nondisruptive Activation” on page 5-21for information about the conditions for a non-disruptive activation.

The Firmware Install and the Image Install commands automate the firmware installation process and perform a disruptive activation as described in “One-Step Firmware Installation” on page 5-21. To perform a nondisruptive activation, refer to “Custom Firmware Installation” on page 5-23.
