Configuring automatic updates

Use the Automatic Updates screen to enable a facility that will poll a server address (you
designate) when the switch is booted. If updates are found since the last time the switch was
booted, the updated version is uploaded to the switch the next time the switch is booted. Enable
this option for either the firmware, configuration file or cluster configuration file. Brocade
recommends leaving this setting disabled if a review of a new file is required before it is
automatically uploaded by the switch.

To enable and configure the automatic update feature for switch firmware, configuration files and
cluster configurations:

1. Select Switch > Automatic Updates from the main menu tree.

Available

Displays the current status of the memory resource. By default, nvram and system
are always available.

A green check indicates the device is currently connected to the switch and is
available.

A red “X” indicates the device is currently not available.

Formatted

This displays the format status of the memory devices. This ensures that the
external and internal memory device store the files securely. A formatted memory
device is less prone to crash and loss of data.

A green check mark indicates the device is currently connected to the switch
and is available.

A red “X” indicates the device is currently not available.
