PowerScale Isilon Node Firmware Upgrade

 

isilon firmware upgrade

Before you install a node firmware package, make sure that you have the necessary
free space in your /var directory.
In order to successfully install a node firmware package, you must have at least
250MB of free space in the /var directory of every node you are working on.
You can find the free space in the /var directory by running the following command:
df -h

1. Download the new firmware package.
a. Visit EMC online support and download the latest firmware package.
b. Open a secure shell (SSH) connection to any node in the cluster and log in using
the "root" account.
c. Copy the firmware package to the /ifs/data directory on the cluster.
2. Install the firmware package. Depending on your version of OneFS, run one of the
following commands:
OneFS 8.0 or later
isi upgrade patches install IsiFw_Package_<versionnumber>.tar
Earlier than OneFS 8.0
isi pkg install IsiFw_Package_<version-number>.tar
The cluster displays a message stating that the firmware package was successfully
installed.

After the node restarts, confirm that the NVRAM firmware matches the installed
firmware package. Depending on your version of OneFS, run one of the following
commands:
OneFS 8.0 or later
isi upgrade cluster firmware devices
Earlier than OneFS 8.0
isi firmware status
If the NVRAM firmware still does not match the installed firmware package, you must
run the firmware update a second time. Depending on your version of OneFS, run one
of the following commands:
OneFS 8.0 or later
isi upgrade cluster firmware start
Earlier than OneFS 8.0
isi firmware update
update status
