SCP. To use Secure CoPy (SCP) to upgrade firmware for the Rack PDU, follow these steps (this procedure
assumes bootmon does not need upgrading, it is always necessary to upgrade the other two though):
1. Locate the firmware modules, see “Using the Utility for manual upgrades, primarily on Linux.” on
page 110.
2. Use an SCP command line to transfer the AOS firmware module to the
Rack PDU. The following
example uses nnn to represent the version number of the AOS module:
scp apc_hw05_aos_nnn.bin [email protected]:apc_hw05_aos_nnn.bin
3. Use a similar SCP command line, with the name of the application module, to transfer the application
firmware module to the
Rack PDU. (Always upgrade the AOS before the application module).
Use XMODEM to upgrade one Rack PDU
To use XMODEM to upgrade one Rack PDU that is not on the network, you must extract the firmware files
from the Firmware Upgrade Utility (see “To extract the firmware files:” ).
To transfer the files (this procedure assumes bootmon does not need upgrading, it is always necessary to
upgrade the other two though):
1. Select a serial port at the local computer and disable any service that uses the port.
2. Connect the provided serial configuration cable (part number 940-0144) to the selected port and to the
RJ-12 style serial port at the
Rack PDU.
3. Run a terminal program such as HyperTerminal, and configure the selected port for 57600 bps, 8 data
bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4. Press the Reset button on the
Rack PDU, then immediately press the Enter key twice, or until the Boot
Monitor prompt displays:
BM>
5. Type XMODEM, then press ENTER.
6. From the terminal program’s menu,
select XMODEM, then select the binary AOS firmware file to
transfer using XMODEM. After the XMODEM transfer is complete, the Boot Monitor prompt returns.
(Always upgrade the AOS before the application module).
7. To install the application module, repeat step 5 and step 6. In step 6, use the application module file
name.
8. Type
reset or press the Reset button to restart the Rack PDU.
