Adapter firmware updates are persistent.
Firmware can be updated by following the steps below:
- Copy the below code to a Makefile:
KMOD=elxflash
FIRMWS=imagename.ufi:elxflash
.include <bsd.kmod.mk>
- Replace imagename in above with UFI file name
- Copy Makefile and UFI file to a directory
- Execute make & copy generated elxflash.ko to
/lib/modules
- sysctl dev.oce.<if_id>.fw_upgrade=elxflash
- Reboot the machine
In case of issues with supplied UFI, flashing fails with one of the following
errors.
- “Invalid BE3 firmware image”
- “Invalid Cookie. Firmware image corrupted ?”
