Note: There may be times when you need to make special software available to the
storage router, for example, under the guidance of a HP Technical Support
professional. If you isolate this software from standard updates by placing it in another
location (not the default download location), you could change the default download
location, download the software, and then reset the default download location. An
easier way, however, is to specify the download location via the URL parameter on the
download software proxy
command. For example, to download a file named
313.tar containing version 3.1.3 software from
http://your.website.com/StorageRouter
using the services of a proxy
server, issue this command:
download software proxy url http://your.website.com/
StorageRouter/313.tar
.
Using TFTP
To make a new version of software available to the storage router via TFTP:
1. enable — Enter Administrator mode.
2. show software version all
— Verify that there is only one version
of software on the storage router. If two versions exist, use the
delete software version
command to delete the old version of
software to make room for the new version.
3. download software tftp version 3.1.3
— Make a new
software version available to the storage router (for example, 3.1.3).
Note: There may be times when you need to make special software available to the

location (not the default download location), you could change the default download
location, download the software, and then reset the default download location. An
easier way, however, is to specify the download location via the hostname and filename
parameters on the download software tftp command. For example, to
download a file named 313.tar containing version 3.1.3 software from my_tftpHost
using TFTP, issue this command:
download software tftp hostname my_tftp Host
filename 313.tar. The
313.tar file must reside in the default base directory defined for the TFTP host.
