10.1.3 Interface
The HPM.1 upgrade supports three different interfaces for upgrading the firmware. These are
KCS, IPMB-0, and LAN over BASE. The LAN interface is only supported if the payload is powered
on (M4). The BASE Ethernet controller also has to be powered on for this feature.
10.1.3.1 KCS Interface
The standard way to upgrade the firmware of the payload is through the KCS interface. Update
through this interface is the fastest HPM.1 upgrade. The images and the Ipmi tool need to be
on the payload to be upgraded.
Example:
Prompt>ipmitool hpm upgrade
10.1.3.2 IPMB-0
This interface represents the backplane IPMI bus and allows remote firmware upgrade. The
count of the simultaneous upgrades is limited because of the bus speed.
Example from shelf manger:
Prompt>ipmitool -t 0x92 hpm upgrade
Example with RMCP+:
Prompt>ipmitool -I lan -H 192.168.34.8 -U Administrator -P
Administrator -t 0x92 hpm upgrade
10.1.3.3 IPMI over LAN (BASE)
The IPMI over LAN interface uses the BASE Ethernet controller to do firmware upgrades. The
interface has to be configured before the first use. Configuring this interface is described in
Chapter 7, Configuring SOL Parameters, on page 224
.
