For Linux CLP load command firmware updates, you must place the image file in the tftpboot

folder, which is located in the TFTP servers root directory.
The TFTP application might report an error in the early part of the firmware upload process, during
the firmware image validation process. An error does not necessarily indicate failure of the firmware
upload and does not prevent successful firmware uploads. A successful firmware upload typically
takes several minutes. After the firmware upgrade process is complete, verify that the new version of
the firmware is active.
If the firmware upgrade process fails after sufficient time (at least 5 minutes), reboot the server, and
verify that the previous version of the firmware is still active. Always reboot the server before retrying
the firmware upgrade process.
After installing the firmware, the IP address of the server might reset to the default value. You must
locally reset the IP address to the desired address.

NOTE:

After using the load command LO100 will reset ending your CLP interface session.

You must reconnect to the CLP interface.

NOTE:

When you use the CLP load command with TFTPD32, HP recommends using a 4-

second timeout and 10 retries.
