Download environmental card firmware

The download tray firmware file command downloads environmental services module (ESM) firmware.

Supported Arrays

This command applies to an individual DE2000H, DE4000H, DE4000F, DE6000H, or DE6000F storage array.

Roles

To execute this command on an storage array, you must have the Storage Admin or Support Admin role.

Context

Important
For the DE2000H, DE4000H, and DE4000F storage array only - to ensure the downloads are not reverted, disable the IOM service on the DE2000H, DE4000H, and DE4000F controller before the download. When you are finished updating the firmware, re-enable the IOM service.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
allTrays This parameter downloads new firmware to all of the compatible trays in the storage array. The firmware package you select determines which trays are compatible. Incompatible trays are skipped. No error message is displayed about incompatible trays.
tray The drive tray that contains the ESM card to which you want to load new firmware. Tray ID values are 0 to 99 . Enclose the tray ID value in square brackets ([ ]).
Note
There can be no leading zero in the tray ID. For example, if the displayed tray ID is "02," this command requires it to be specified as [2], not [02].
file

The file path and the file name of the file that contains the firmware image. Enclose the file path and the file name of the firmware image in double quotation marks (" "). For example:

file="C:\Program Files\CLI\dnld\esmfrm.esm"

Valid file names have an .esm  extension.

Notes

The tray parameter downloads new firmware to a specific drive tray. If you need to download new firmware to more than one drive tray, but not all drive trays, you must enter this command for each drive tray.
