Updating the firmware from version I1xx to version I2xx

Because the format of the firmware file has changed, you must use different procedures to update
the Interface Manager card firmware depending on whether you are changing minor revisions
(I1xx to I1xx or I2xx to I2xx) or major revisions (I1xx to I2xx). You must update a major revision
with the Command View TL GUI (see

Updating the firmware with the Firmware Update

wizard (page 137)

). You can update a minor revision with the Command View TL GUI (see

Updating

the firmware with the Firmware Update wizard (page 137)

) or with the CLI (see

Updating the

firmware with the CLI (page 186)

).

IMPORTANT:

Only versions I182 or higher can upgrade to version I200.

IMPORTANT:

The Interface Manager firmware version I200 and above is not available for the

ESL9000 Series library. The ESL9000 Series library must remain at the latest I182 version.

IMPORTANT:

After upgrading to version I200, you will not be able to view support tickets that

you generated with version I1xx.

When you update the firmware from version I1xx to version I2xx, the Firmware Update wizard
migrates your configuration settings including:

Support information

Library settings

Interface Manager settings

Network settings

SNMP settings

License information

Partitions

Secure Manager

In the first step, the Firmware Update Wizard copies the configuration settings to a database file.
In the second step, the Firmware Update Wizard copies the database file to the I200 Interface
Manager card. Depending on the complexity of your configuration, the firmware update may take
up to 1 hour.
