Updating firmware using the StoreOnce CLI
Procedure
1. To show the status of firmware, run the StoreOnce CLI command:
# hardware show firmware <node|storage|all>
2. To see if any firmware needs upgrading, check the Action column.
IMPORTANT:
Do not shut down or reboot your system or any system component until the final step. Special
instructions may apply.
3. Use the hardware update firmware command, as required. For example, there may be instances
where replacement hardware may need a firmware downgrade to bring it in line with the supported
firmware version of the installed StoreOnce software on the system being maintained. (Use the force
parameter in the command to enable this action.)
The command syntax is:
hardware update firmware <node|storage|all>
The command will be applied across all server components or across all storage components. The all
parameter updates all firmware components across all components.
There may be instances where replacement hardware may need a firmware downgrade to bring it in line
with the supported firmware version of the installed StoreOnce software on the system being maintained.
Use the force parameter in the command to enable this, but be aware that the update will take longer to
complete.
4. In some cases, when the firmware update has been loaded, you will need to perform a reboot to complete
the firmware update. If a reboot is required, a pop-up message will appear on your GUI screen after
loading is completed. The message will also advise what type of reboot is required.
a. Reboot the system using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system reboot
b. Power down the nodes using the StoreOnce CLI command:
system shutdown
After the system has completely shutdown, wait at least 60 seconds before powering on using the
Power-On buttons on the appliance.
Upgrading StoreOnce software
To establish which StoreOnce software version is installed, click on StoreOnce in the Navigator and look at
the Software Revision under System Information.

Release Notes to install the software.
