Performing a firmware update (CLF)
Description
L&TT can be launched from the command line to update firmware on a device.
L&TT updates the firmware on the device specified by the device path (p)
parameter using the firmware file specified in the file parameter. These two
parameters are required; all other parameters are optional.
Syntax
hp_ltt -f firmware p=
password=
downgrade=
[instname=
Parameters
Enter the device path. The format for the device path varies
depending on operating system. To determine the proper
p
format for your device, first perform a scan of the bus (see
). Output of the scan is written to
the saved_scan.txt file in the L&TT root directory. Examine
this file to determine the proper format. This parameter is
required.
file
Enter the full path, including the filename, of the firmware file
to be used to update the device. If there are any white spaces
in the path or filename, use quotation marks around the path,
as follows:
file=”C:\LTT Firmware Files\firmware.frm”
This parameter is required.
password
Optional. Specify a password. Passwords in L&TT are used
to unlock certain functionality of the program. See
for more information about passwords.
In the case of a firmware upload, a factory password is
required only if the downgrade or overrideproductid
parameters are set to yes. If the password is invalid, L&TT
resets the password to an empty string and the firmware
downgrade or product ID override is not allowed.
iohistory
Optional. Specify enabled or disabled. When enabled,
L&TT generates a detailed event log that captures all L&TT
diagnostic interaction, all SCSI commands sent and received
by the program, and any software interactions or issues. If an
invalid value is provided, L&TT retains the existing setting.
downgrade
Optional. Specify yes or no. The default value is no. When
set to yes, a firmware downgrade is permitted. You must also
enter a valid factory password using the password parameter
