fcu—Firmware Upgrade Command-Line Utility

Description

The Firmware Upgrade Command-line Utility (FCU) allows you to:

Query the current versions of the firmware installed on the Shelf Manager and determine
which firmware devices are active.

Verify that a specified upgrade image is sound and compatible with the current hardware.

Upgrade a firmware image.

Mark a device to be used as the boot source on the next reset.

By default, the FCU binary executable is installed in /opt/bladeservices/bin. This
directory has been added to the PATH environment variable.

The FCU verify and upgrade operations require specially prepared FRI files or HPM files (see

Firmware Recovery Image Files

on page 57

).
