Running the Standalone Adapter Management Utility

487

The following files and directories should be present:

i386\

x86_64\

ppc64\

elxflash.sh

linlpcfg.sh

The elxflash.sh script is used to configure the environment, run elxflash, and revert

any changes before exiting. This script installs the MILI daemon if it is not installed.
The linlpcfg.sh script is used to configure the environment, run linlpcfg, and revert

any changes before exiting. This script installs the MILI daemons if they are not

installed.

Notes:

The MILI service is temporarily installed. The service is removed once the script

execution is completed.

If OneCommand Manager is installed, the OneCommand Manager libraries are

used by the elxflash and linlpcfg utilities.

The linlpcfg.sh and elxflash.sh scripts call the native versions of elxflash and

linlpcfg. For example, on Linux x86_64, the 64-bit utilities are called.

The adapter being managed by the Standalone Adapter Management utility

must not be managed simultaneously by other Emulex utilities including

OneCommand Manager.

5. To update firmware and bootcode on an adapter, type

# ./elxflash.sh /auto up

To display a list of HBAs, type

# ./linlpcfg.sh listhba

Each time elxflash or lpcfg is run, a log file is created. On Linux these files are

called:

/var/log/clu/elxflash.log

/var/log/clu/linlpcfg.log
